Movie Appreciation: Week 7, Period 3 (Fri. 2/20)

[satedan-soldier.livejournal.com]

Movie students would be pleased (or disappointed, who knows!) to see they were back to their regular movie theater sans-treadmills or any other gym equipment. Look, Ronon was being kind or something.

He leaned against the podium and gestured at the opening image frozen on the screen. "Today we're talking about trilogies. You all know that Space Battles thing and we saw part of the Fatal Rock trilogy, and I'd bet some of you know those Fabulous Foursome comic book movies, so the question for today is this: Are all trilogies created equal? Can sports movies hold up to three incarnations as well as action or science fiction? You be the judge. Then? Have a catfight. It was the goal of these, after all."

And then he made them watch clips of all three versions of meta for Bring it On. There was a cheerleader theme happening this week.

"It seems someone took your idea," John said, thoughtfully watching girls in short skirts.

"And, naturally, I got no credit for it," he huffed.

"Just be glad you get a class of sitting around watching girls frolic on screen," John reminded him. "At least we get a reprieve from musicals or whatever for another two weeks."

"Musicals," Rodney shuddered. "Whoever thought those were a good idea should be shot."

"Five bucks says some idiot sings along," John said, hurting himself when he shuddered at the thought.

"No bet," Rodney shook his head. "They'll probably even be doing cheers after this class." As it was, Rodney himself was going to be hearing 'Hey, Mickey!' in his head for the rest of the day.

"Maybe they'll cheer at you," John suggested. "They can take that Mickey thing and turn it into Rodney."

Don't cheer for him, John.

"Right, because I really need to know the meaning of true suffering before graduating high school. If you have any sense of human decency," he reached out to clutch at John's arm, "do not go around giving people such horrific ideas," he begged.

John patted Rodney's arm reassuringly and whispered, "Hey Rodney you're so fine, you're so fine you blow my mind, hey Rodney!" Jackass.
