The Princess Bride (novel) by William Goldman is 89,426 words. if a picture were actually worth a thousand words, then translating the novel The Princess Bride into a movie would require approximately 90 images, which, at 24 frames per second, would cause the movie in question to last 3 and 3/4 seconds
however, in reality, The Princess Bride (movie)'s runtime is one hour and thirty-eight minutes. so clearly these images are not so efficient. 98 minutes of movie at 24 frames per second is 141,120 frames of movie, which suggests that the average frame is in fact worth Less than one word.
clearly the value of images was overinflated by marketing executives at Big Image, presumably in order to sell more images
to be more specific, each frame of The Princess Bride (movie) is worth approximately .63 words. which is not great. but i wanted to see just how inefficient frames could get
The Hobbit (novel) by Jolkien Rolkien Rolkien Tolkien is 95,022 words long. The Hobbit Trilogy (movies) by Peter Jackson from the early 2010's were based on this novel* and consist of three films, which combined have a total runtime of 7 hours and 54 minutes. They also made the (bewilderingly controversial? why were movie people upset about this) decision to film at 48 frames per second rather than the traditional 24. As such, the numbers here get very silly very quickly.
seven hours and fifty four minutes is 474 minutes total, which corresponds to 28,440 seconds of footage delivered by an absolutely eye-watering 1,365,120 frames, thereby making each frame of this bloated masturbatory cashgrab of a series worth a pitiful approximate .07 words. truly, cinema is the least efficient vector for information
*according to wikipedia, parts of the trilogy were actually based on some other, later writings not included in the Hobbit (novel) proper but which expanded on said novel, but i cannot easily find a word count for this extraneous information, so tragically we must work with the lower number here. it's chill tho bc it's funnier this way i think
"without modifying" how dare you insult the hard work of our landlords
