    It’s really easy to watch the movie, and to catch that one word in the sentence you want to look at without losing anything in the frame.

    What? How would you even do this? Glance straight to the one word you need, somehow locating it without reading the other words?

      Yeah, it’s pretty easy to do. The sentences always lag behind a bit, and you know which part of the sentence you want to reread. Movies just don’t move that fast.

      Your eyes can also understand words without reading them, that’s how youre able to skim to a known part of a text you want to reread, in a book for example.
