Why don't albums try to imitate film more often? Nowadays, video game developers are trying so hard to be like film directors, but there aren't many examples of musicians doing the same thing. Pic related has it all, a fictional concept, a long running time, and you could even say that the first three tracks are almost like an establishing shot of the plot. ITT: post cinematic albums.

A lot of concept albums don't really feel like movies. more like books really. Janelle monae's discog has scene transitions, atmospheres, and most importantly and entirely fictional concept, which pushes it further into being more like a movie rather than a personal story being told by the musician.
