Movie Appreciation: Week 1, Period 3 (Fri. 1/9)

[satedan-soldier.livejournal.com]

In time for third period, the Danger Shop had been transformed into a large movie theater complete with a stage in front of the screen. On the stage this morning, stood a large man with dreads who wore a leather ensemble that either screamed pot head or alien based on your point of view.

"Movies. People on Earth can't get enough of 'em. You may know I'm not from this galaxy, but I've seen enough movies in the past few years to have figured out it's all about entertainment. Which is where you come in." He stalked across the stage, trying to catch a few student's eyes as he went along. "This class is to appreciate movies. We'll watch clips an' discuss the types. I'm gonna ask you to spend a couple hours outside class watching some other movies as the semester goes along. Do it, don't, you're the one who won't get to kick Sheppard in the face when we act out meta for Hot Fuzz." Sadly for John, he wasn't kidding.

"This week we're doin' the intro thing. Tell us your name and describe your favorite movie. Then we'll see if anyone knows what the hell you're talkin' about and can guess the title. If you've never seen a movie or don't have a favorite, tell everybody why you're here."

"That's probably the best way to do it," Dinah said, resisting the urge to go awww! at Peter's pride in that. "People wouldn't break up so much if they really got to know other people."

"I guess I just don't see the point in being with someone if you don't at least like them," Peter said. He shrugged. "I'm not that kind of guy."

See, now, why couldn't Matt have been like Peter? He'd liked her, but apparently not enough, hunh? "I wish all guys thought like that." She tilted her head. "But I guess some girls don't think like that either, so... I mean, real life isn't like meta for Say Anything. Unfortunately."

"True," Peter said. "But there's nothing wrong with that. Just not my thing."
