- Watch forced dubbing. Although convenient, dubbing sometimes kills the original's excitement. If you can, opt for the original version with subtitles.
- Let yourself be interrupted. Silence your phone. Close other tabs. Focus on the movie as if it were a date with yourself.
- Not investigating beforehand. Some Asian films are VERY culturally charged. Reading a short synopsis or knowing the context can make a difference.
- Watch by obligation. If you're not in the mood, you'd better wait. Asian cinema isn't quick or easy… it's emotional.
