Ni, introverted intuition - the memory function

[Aylen]

To be fair, many movies follow a specific theme of events to stir up reactions and emotions in the audience. The ideal world turns into a drama and stuff happens and the good guy wins in the end. But then there is also a joker event in the thing that take a specific skill to predict.

I want to note specifically that nothing can really predict the future in all its elements. When you lived life long enough and have all this experiences you can start to make the shots before they arrived right. You can grasp a bad situation early and turn it from just having experienced that exact thing. Than there is sort of a holistic memory of human kind that store experiences from the past and the present in a more general way. So you do not have to experience a situation still can apply some sort of filter that helps you orient yourself. The memory of Ni is bigger then the sum of experiences of the individual. And everyone use this memory. Some remember where to look up experiences, some remember facts which help them in life. Everyone does Ni.

LOL I was too slow deleting!

Edit: When I am "predicting" while watching a movie I have to become detached otherwise it doesn't work for me if I am too immersed in the storyline. It is easier to be as an observer, with others around, rather than a participant in the emotions of a movie. I am more focused on the people around me than the screen.

I let myself get really immersed in movies when I am alone. I prefer watching them alone. I feel like I have to be "on" when others are around. Making jokes and yeah, "predicting". We have funny movie watching practices here in my circle of people. If am alone I can become all the characters or just a chosen few. Other people interfere with that kind of experience. I watch 80% of movies alone.
