If people are on their phones during a movie, doesn't that mean that the plot is easy to follow while on a phone and if not wouldn't they get off the phone to follow? Why do the rest of us have to suffer?

    No they will just get mad about how they can't understand the movie and stop watching. This is a response for the fact that movie's that do restate the plot get more views/watchtime.

    Look at like shonen anime aimed at kids, they basically say exactly what happened every minute for the same reason
