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

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."

"You don't believe in marriage?" Penelope asked, curious.

"Not in high school," Claudia said firmly. "When I'm old...like, 35...maybe."

35. Hee.

"Maybe some people don't have a choice."

"Like an arranged marriage?" Claudia wrinkled up her nose. "People still do that?"

Penelope held up her left hand, showing her diamond ring. "Some people still do."

"Um," Claudia said eloquently.

"I know," she said. "It's just this thing."

"It's a marriage thing!" Claudia squeaked. "A forever and ever until you get divorced thing!"

Really, Penelope hated to think about it like that. It hurt her head.

"Hopefully people don't think about divorce when they think about getting married."

"I would if I was getting strapped to a guy I didn't pick," Claudia said.

"Okay, you have a point," she said.
