A child is picked at random to have access to all the worlds movies, TV shows, ect and no one else does. This person has to sit in a room while cameras are focused on them live streaming the persons reactions 24/7. They can pick whatever interests them but they can never leave the room and that’s the only entertainment for everyone in that society. I’ve been watching some black mirror lately so that idea just popped into my head.

Once when I was 7, it was a rainy day outside and the electricity was shut down for several hours. Basically nothing to do, I tried to made this weird shitty story in my head where transformers were fighting decepticons in a crumbling new york while humans were turning into transformers twice bigger the size they were, and the humans still had their heads normal but their bodies were just made completely out of metal (I was bored ok).
While imagining this, I was imagining this like I was every character, I talked whenever a character talked, I heard the sounds they could listen to, I felt the adrenaline and intensity whenever action would happen, I would even move the same way as the character would (not always, usually whenever they transformed or doing some insane random stunt, I would just usually shake randomly just to feel the action happening).
Ever since then, it started to evolve into something else. Whenever I watched action movies, I would feel the intensity more personal than usual (sometimes shake my body as well just to get a more personal excitement). I was able to imagine quietly without acting outloud and more focus on thinking, I would do this so much I couldn't concentrate while learning at school (even now I still do it).
It wasn't until when I was 13 that my imagination felt so free, at the time I discovered a various amount of diversed music and movies to wrap my head around. Movies I would watch now would be so much calmer, to the intensity and the horror and the cinematography would be so small, yet hook my interest in the creativity people would make, trying to create my own personal film in my head. Music was the most essential I would enjoy, just hearing the calmness of psychedelic rock and ambient was like experiencing a different reality of heaven, especially on a nice summer day. Or the absolute fun and acceleration of hip-hop and metal, my head didn't move like in a bopping motion but more of following the characters or the action I could see in my head, it was so hard to control (so many people couldn't stop mentioning for sooooo long).
Now that I'm currently 15, I'm starting to struggle to find enjoyment in my imagination anymore. I was at a point where I would only focused on listening to calm music because that's where my imagination strived the most at, now that I'm taking a break out of calm music, I cant seem to enjoy any music in general, especially movies as well. I'm at a point now that Im worrying its going away

I’m wondering if we will see an announcement between Apple and Ron Howard’s Imagine Entertainment soon. In July 2017 imagine announces a 4 year first look tv deal with CBS for scripted and unscripted television and long-form digital programming. Assuming that deal started immediately it would expire this month.
In March of this year Imagine and Apple announced a multi-year first look film deal with Imagine Entertainment to produce a slate of scripted movies. They also extended a pre-existing first look deal with Imagine Documentaries originally signed in January 2019.
What’s interesting was in 2017 the financial times reported that Apple was in talks with Imagine for a first look distribution strategy granted to Apple for movies and television shows released by Imagine all the way to an investment or even an outright purchase by Apple. It was said to have gotten "serious enough" to include Tim Cook and Eddy Cue, but discussions ultimately "fizzled out" for unknown reasons. Imagine later denied it saying the story is not accurate and Imagine has no further comment.
This week is the Sun Valley conference where billionaires and Industry leaders hang out and make deals. Attending as usual is Tim Cook and attending this year is Imagines Brian Grazer. Id love to see an acquisition but I’ll settle for a tv first look deal. Either way it would be great to see all future film, docs and tv from Imagine on Apple TV+.
