Seen elsenet: describe your favorite movie, but make it sound boring. A couple of mine:
Movies get made and people talk in them. Out of nowhere: orchestral accompaniment.
An electronics store manager attempts to win back his girlfriend by taking her to the pub.
Three scientists and their associate go up against an architect to help the mayor of New York get re-elected.

The yin and yang of movies (and of...America??) for me:
A man spends his life seeking profit. He succeeds, but his competitiveness pushes people away and he never feels pleasure except at the expense of his enemies.
A man spends his whole life helping other people in his little town at the expense of his own desires, and when he gets in trouble himself they all help him out in return.

Not one of my favorite movies, but:
An extremely in-depth exploration of other people's dreams.

Nice to see the Comic Chat avatar. I found comic chat very soon after it started, when it only had 8 rooms, and hung around on it occasionally until MS killed it. I often used the Possum Wearing a Fez avatar.

Guy graduates law school. Takes a job in Memphis. My second-favorite lawyer movie, after the one where a newbie lawyer goes south with his girlfriend for his first case. |

A person from a rural area gets a job in the big city and, predictably, this changes them.
Two people who don't get along have to work together and argue for a minimum of 90 minutes.
