The Problem With Boring Executions

No one likes being bored, which is why we watch movies, TV shows, YouTube videos or play games to pass the time. Yet every so often I find myself watching a show or movie that's just so boring. This post is going to vent my frustrations on boring executions and how to avoid these pitfuls.

Anything that's meant to entertain can be boring for a myriad of reasons. These can range from one dimensional characters, formulaic writing, a severe lack of funny humor or dull visuals. I remember being immensely bored with shows like The Baskervilles, School For Vampires and Street Football for these very reasons. I Care A Lot and The Devil All The Time immediately come to mind as among the most boring films I've seen on Netflix due to the uninteresting characters and dower stories. Then there's a particular film that got under my skin because of how boring it was: The Happy Criticket. Don't worry, no one remembers this film (except Mr. Coat who made a video tearing it apart:https://youtu.be/OoL6VQpvpqo) because it did nothing memorable throughout its 88 minutes runtime except having annoying and unremarkable characters. Boring executions are frustrating because by the time they're done, I feel like I spent an eternity waiting for the good part that never came. Now this is the part where I chastise the people behind this bore fests and call them "lazy" and "untalented hacks"...y'all listen to too many bad critics 🤷‍♂️

This is Marc Price, the writer and director of a sci-fi film called Dune Drifter. While I thought it was a rather boring film, I have nothing but respect for this man and his crew for trying to make a sci-fi movie like the ones they grew up with. The frustrating thing about movies and TV shows with boring executions is that very talented people are behind these works. I want to root for them and see them have long lasting careers in filmmaking. The thing is though, I can only give so much praise to them when their efforts amount to a film I just don't care for. I learned from the philosophies of Mr. Coat to always respect filmmakers and showrunners for their hard work, even if I don't like the end product.

How does one avoid boring the audience? Well, that's not an easy question to answer because nobody knows what everybody wants. I have my own suggestions for avoiding a boring execution, but yours may different and that's cool. For starters, I like being on the main character's side from the beginning all the way to the end. This allows me to want to follow them on the journey. I like a good joke but a constant barage of gags can be tiresome if they aren't all funny; and not every joke is going to be funny. So I think making some jokes every now and then is a fair balance to not distract from the story. Speaking of, I like playing around with familar tropes and plotlines to shake things up. Instead of playing the dumb blonde as straight as a log, I think it'd be more interesting to have the blonde be quirky but smart and resourceful. That way you can still have the blonde be funny without downgrading their intelligence. As for visuals, I suggest going as far as you can to make the visuals as eye popping as the story is strong. I love moments where we just take in the amazing atmosphere while we're on a journey with the characters. Again, these are suggestions that'll keep ME from being bored while watching a piece of entertainment. I stand by that creators should make whatever they want and the producers should help them realize their vision while still trying to keep things relatively within budget.

At the end of the day, boring executions are no one's favorite type of execution. Whether it's the bland, formulaic story, the unengaging and weak characters, dull and unremarkable visuals, or a severe lack of funny humor, a boring execution is nothing short of a frustrating exercise to not fall alseep. To conclude, I want to say to all filmmakers and showrunners, including the ones that made shows and movies that I thought were boring; you are all talented, amazing people who have my respect because you're following your passion. Don't let my boredom of your product get you down. Keep trying and keep creating ✌️
