I think any argument for a movie being better for teaching rationality than actually studying for the two hours is rationalization.
I tend to have a much easier time remembering, and generate more ideas during, information which is presented in a way I find entertaining.
Movies may not strike an ideal balance, but I think there’s a lot to be said for absorbing information presented in an entertaining manner.
I would try to solve this by making non-fiction literature and studying techniques more entertaining.
Well, personally, I read nonfiction almost exclusively these days, but I can’t do much to make the material more entertaining than the author made it.
