For the last week, I've been trying to watch the movie Burlesque.
I say trying because it's been so boring. I literally stopped the movie after 10 minutes or walked away for a half an hour while I did laundry or paid bills.
The characters a cliche, the performances are flat (or worse) and the dialogue is banal. But the leaden pacing really did me in.
Let's just say it's no Chicago.
So where was the editor?
Watching bad movies--or, rather, abandoning them--is no fun. But it's a reminder that regardless of the medium, snappy editing gives fizz to your content.
Without it, all that glitters isn't gold. More like fool's gold.
