Well done. My team built this at Disney six years ago when we were trying to solve content discovery problems. The problem with endless carousels of thumbnails is that it really doesn't draw you in. Sometimes you just need to drop people into content like it's channel surfing.

Netflix tried something similar a few years ago, but in my opinion it missed a critical ingredient, which was dropping people into the middle of content at a compelling point.

Really like the execution here. YouTube take note.

I think the user intent matters. When I go to Netflix to choose what I want to watch the last thing I want is to be dropped into the middle of random content. I hate auto playing videos when I'm trying to decide if I even want to watch this.

On the other hand when I go to tiktok I get thrown into a random content at every finger flick and I'm delighted because that's exactly why I went there.

If Netflix had well personalized mini tiktok mode serving interesting scenes from the movies you can watch there it could do wonderfully.

Interesting movie scenes is entire genre of tiktok videos. Another movie related genre is narrated summaries of weird movies. This requires bit of work to prepare but still could do well.
