deja viewing

The terrible feeling you get when you're half-way through a movie or a program and suddenly remember you've watched it before, and thus realize that your evening is shot, your memory is a sieve, and your whole existence is a waste. A byproduct of too much streaming in too concentrated period of time.

Oh, dude, I was killing it with Steve McQueen and Bullitt and then it hit me I was deja viewing and had just seen it like, a month ago.
My sister is locked in a loop where she keeps deja viewing stuff and then gets all disgusted with how bleak her life is.
I've seen Pulp Fiction about a dozen times on purpose, but unintentionally deja viewing The Great Train Robbery just once left me totally bummed.

anything for views

When a person records themselves doing something retarded or dangerous to get a large number of views on social media.

My friend would do anything for views, one time he bathed in hot sauce.

deja view

The weird coincidence that happens when you decide to watch a repeat of a tv program that you've seen only (parts of) once before, and it turns out to be that one episode that you've already seen.

I've seen Seinfeld only once, so I thought I'd try to get into it watch the repeats ... turned on the tv and it was the one episode I'd already seen. Talk about deja view.

read-viewing

A method of viewing complex films (and filmed versions of plays, especially), in order to see and hear the actions of the plot, but also to read what is happening, while the story unfolds.

When teaching students complex plays by Shakespeare or Arthur Miller, an English teacher might employ the method of read-viewing of the play so that students can see what is happening while reading the subtitles/closed captions. Read-viewing engages students in the visual world of the story, which helps to improve comprehension of the literature. Ideally, this method would be used in short increments of 20 to 30 minutes, and then students will discuss and analyze what they have read-viewed.

view balls

The feeling you get when your viewing of a movie or tv show is abruptly cut off by faulty equipment, power outage, scratched dvd or act of God. Especially appropriate when viewing shadily acquired bootlegged or downloaded materials. The term is a reference to blue balls.

"I was watching that divx file of There Will Be Blood you downloaded and it crapped out halfway through. Now I have view balls, you tease."
