I binged 100 TikToks in an hour at a movie theater — and had some surprisingly deep feelings about it

Max Zavidow, a New York-based comedian and content creator, screened over 300 of his TikToks at a theater.

Content creator Max Zavidow hosted a special screening of over 300 of his TikTok videos at the historic Cherry Lane Theatre in New York. Zavidow, a New York-based comedian and creator with over 1.4 million followers, wanted to give his audience an immersive experience of his career arc over the past five years. Sitting front row with a camera to livestream his reactions, Zavidow watched his content repeatedly, cringing, laughing, and reflecting on his journey.

The screening, described as a parody of Shia LaBeouf's #ALLMYMOVIES, aimed to illustrate the challenges and triumphs of being a content creator in the digital age. As Zavidow watched his old videos, he expressed the difficulty of revisiting his earlier work, acknowledging that he had found his niche and refined his style over time.

The four-hour event, which was free and invitation-only, drew in TikTok enthusiasts and fellow creators. Despite initial skepticism about bringing social media platforms to the big screen, Zavidow's choice to project his TikToks on a large screen proved to be a successful and engaging experience for those in attendance.
