Of course difficulty =/= fun. I don't like dying over and over again just because I haven't level grinded. I'd prefer for a game to be long and easy (with harder side quests, though) than for it to be short and hard.

No one actually plays games for fun. Games are played for satisfaction, the feeling of accomplishing something. And a lot of other reasons besides fun.
And level grinding has nothing to do with game being harder or easier. Everyone can level grind, it doesn't require anything from the player. It just makes it more boring. Real difficulty means something that takes skill or brains. Like mastering a style in a fighting game or solving a brain teasing puzzle.

Here's the thing: movies have no difficulty nor challenges. Guess what makes them different than games 
(apart from interactivity of course)

Cutscenes aren't games however. At least I don't consider them such.

What?
Interactivity = move wherever you want, talk to people in which order you like (and also choose what to talk), etc. These things will never be found in a movie/cutscene.

Talk = cutscene.
Many factors influence cutscenes in games, so you can say "order" happens.
but then that's all about it.

You'd be surprised. Not everyone plays games for e-peen boosting, though I admit, many (if not most) do.

Misunderstood me you did.
With fun I meant fun as in something that makes you laugh.
