The stakes were already really really really low. Like... They're literally just biking across town to get a movie. That's the whole movie And then the boyfriend is just like "Yeah, I'll drive you guys I kinda wanna see that movie too" like the stakes just fell through the floor. There's now a gaping hole in the floor where the movie used to be.

I love that the kids names are MacGuffin. Because “MacGuffin” is a plot device in a story where an object, event, or character is important to the plot and characters, but is not central to the story itself.

[@SicilianAmericanDreams]

Can you give me an example of something from a famous movie that would qualify because I'm trying to think of the difference between being important to the plot and being important to the story that sounds so similar

[@Claireshirt]

@@SicilianAmericanDreamsif you’ve ever watched the movie, The Help, one of the main characters nickname is Skeeter. They never explain why. Her real name is Eugenia. The movie is based off the book, and there it explains that her brother names her that as a kid because her legs were long and skinny and she had a belly like a mosquito (skeeter) lol

[@Linkinparkfan_radioheadfan]

I thought it was a weird reference the the duffer brothers

[@TheLafandemangas]

First time I heard it was on Gumball, in the episode where Richard ate all the burgers in town. I always wondered why that name specifically, now I know lol

[@dovelynight]

@@SicilianAmericanDreams im a bit late and there's already a good example here with characters but macguffins are also for the plot as a device use to move the story along but arent that important to it. it pushes the story on by motivating characters to do something for the plot to begin. im not sure if you've seen it but in my film studies class, we looked at psycho and the money that marion steals is an example of a macguffin because it makes the plot as marion escapes town and there are people after her, leading her to a motel and being killed. the fact marion stole the money is only partly central to the plot because it leads her to the bates motel where she is killed. after that, the money is only mentioned a few times because the plot is about her murder instead. hope this helps!!

[@CJArt101]

"phil" is the latin root for love, by definition "cine-phile" just means a lover of cinema. but, the -phile is associtated with pedophile. that is prolly why it sounds sexual or devious

A thermophile is something that likes heat, not something that has relations with volcanos. -Phile just means like, not sex

[@CocoWantsACracker]

I see someone beat me to it. To add to Mattymerr's comment: there is technically a distinction between an X-phile and an X-sexual for cases where intercourse is an actual option. You could say the latter acted on their urge, whereas the former did not. That is why 'PDF files' may be bad but are not as bad as pe**se*uals; but most people just use the terms interchangeably.

"Mockbusters" were huge in the video rental era. The companies would make a half-ass version of a popular film with a similar name and design, hoping you wouldn't be paying attention and grab it off the shelf. By the time you realized it wasn't the movie you wanted, you were already at home having paid for it. My friend worked at Hollywood Video in the early 00's and they had a ton of them, our favorites being "Transmorphers" and "Snakes on a Train"

I can't believe that the filmmakers had the balls to name the primary antagonists who at the climax of the movie steal the object that the characters have been after the entire movie, the MacGuffin brothers.

[@Vincent_Beers]

It's really just lazy. I went to an art college (graphics design) and I knew a lot of the people in film and theater courses. Half the people that took a screenwriting course thought they were being clever to name something or someone macguffin. The only thing more common was naming something hard to find "unobtanium" because it was hard to obtain. And that was before it became mainstream in that stupid generic avatar movie. There's certain key words that were taught as tropes, once you learned basic plot outlines you could write short cuts with tropes and key words and then just swap them out to make them sound unique. It's the basis for serial tv writing as well. Fixed script timing etc.

[@northstarjakobs]

​@@Vincent_Beers I've seen one good use of that, and it was in Poptropica. There's an "island" where you become a mall cop, and you need to stop any burglars from stealing the whatever-gizmo-atron from MacGuffin's before the release tomorrow. The gizmo doesn't matter, you don't even know what it does, and people go Absolutely nuts for it. It's basically whatever dumb thing apple puts out. Spoilers in case anyone decides to play it on Flashpoint: The funny thing is, the item from MacGuffin's is actually a red herring! The real thing the burglar is there to steal is a mint condition Honus Wagner baseball card from the safe at the sports memorabilia store. There's also quite a few cheeky references to other stuff, like a DeLorean in the parking lot, and the name of the mall changing from "twin palms mall" to "lone palm mall" like what happened in Back to the Future.

Theres literally a format youre supposed to follow for ehen a group of characters have some elaborate plan. If everything is going to go well, you don't explain the plan and you let the audience experience it (somewhat) authentically. If something is going to go wrong, you explain what the plan is so the audience knows what supposed to happen and can watch the characters figure out how to roll with it. This movie sort of hit two birds with one stone in doing those sequences; didn't show the actual execution, and in seeing the whole plan, the audience subconsciously expects something to go wrong, which also doesn't happen

Whenever you say "Sneak Over" I keep thinking you're about to say the "Sneako-Verse" like Sneako has his own cinematic universe. And that's so terrifying to think about I nearly punched my monitor every time you almost said it.

When I was a kid, I thought people were my friends even though they were mean to me. Turns out I'm autistic and I didn't really understand what they were doing back then.

[@idontknow2469]

Speaking from experience, teen boys use that same way of bullying where they pretend to be your friend while being the shittiest person to you. There was a boy who was autistic and the boys in my class did THE EXACT same thing to him. Theyd let him into their friend groups to tutn him into their own personal entertainment. And i have social anxiety, so whenever speeches would come up, I'd just shut down. They'd pretend they were helping me or showing care by GARNERING EVERYONE'S ATTENTION TO ME and telling everyone to "be chill" while i did my speech. At first, i thought it was just them being ignorant and trying to help, but after a few times of this, i realised they were just trying to get all eyes on me. No one ever paid attention to speeches, and i was some random person who never interacted w the class. They wouldn't have been paying attention to me if the boys didn't take it upon themselves to tell everyone to. Teenagers just suck sometimes.
