Advanced Film Criticism, Monday, Period 1

"Hey, congrats, you figured out how to come to the same place two weeks in a row. Now, just so you think you're not going to learn anything in this class besides an appreciation for stupid things, you're getting a pop quiz," James said. "That there's a real old timey popcorn cart. Figure out how to make me some popcorn and then make me some popcorn. The manual's there, and I'm pretty sure everything you need is too. We're starting the movie now, but you don't get to watch until there's a tub of popcorn in these beautiful hands of mine."

"Oh, and today's movie is Bel-Air Yorkshire Terrier, which is terrible, probably offensive to English people, and definitely offensive to my ears. Also, get that popcorn done fast because eventually they try to make one of the girl dogs the 'sexy' girl dog and I want to make sure that stuff's digested before I feel like retching."

Make Popcorn

Everything you need is right there. Make the popcorn. And there are cameras watching you to make sure you keep things hygenic.

No, James does not trust any of you.

Flick could do popcorn even if he wasn't very hungry. He'd just have to focus long enough not to burn the stuff.

Raven had the manual out. She was mostly using it to fan herself.

"Why didn't he just use microwave popcorn? Even I've heard of microwave popcorn."

Not that she'd made it. She was still a little bit afraid of the microwave.

Joker flipped through the manual, and then made some popcorn. It wasn't all that hard. He gave a tub to James and kept a tub for himself, and smiled as he thought about how he was NOT going to be cleaning up that cart.
