I watched a movie last night.
What an amazing love story. Two people from different backgrounds getting to know each other and as they get closer and closer they fall in love and realize that even though they are different, deep inside they are exactly the same. A really sweet movie that will bring a tear in your eye and Butterflies in your belly. Thumps up for the soundtrack too. Great collection of songs.
Well... I wanted to watch a movie but I didn't. I also wanted to write something for chimeres.
The truth is that I didn't watch a movie but at least I wrote about it. The imaginary film that I (didn't) watch(ed)(a romantic comedy) is called:
"Finding love in weird places like under a dinner table while trying to find my fork. There I accidentally met you and we stared at each other for two awkward minutes".
Seriously now, I love romantic comedies. Every time I watch one I feel like I've met an old friend. I know exactly what will happen at the end ("it was great seeing you after all this time Mike! Let's meet up again soon! Like, really soon! Actually let's meet in two hours!", "Yeah let's do that it will be amazing!". Three minutes later you are going to text him apologizing that you can't make it due to illness or family issues. You'll accidentally meet again on the train three years later). But the timetable of those movies remind me of the John Rambo ones.
It goes like this:
Random John Rambo movie (or any other war movie):
1. Something Happens at the other side of the world.
2. Someone is in danger.
3. John Rambo gets ready.
4. John Rambo arrives.
5. John Rambo kicks some ass.
6. John Rambo kicks some more ass.
7. 250 enemy soldiers shoot their guns at Rambo but no bullet touches him.
8. John Rambo kicks 250 more buts.
9. John Rambo saves the day.
10. John Rambo is the man.
Random romantic comedy:
1. Good looking fella moves to another city.
2. Good looking Girl lives in this city.
3. Good looking Fella meets good looking girl at the park/subway/dinner/bookstore/concert/party but doesn't ask her for her number. He only knows her name.
4. Three days later they meet again on the street! What a coincidence since most of these movies take place in huge cities!
5. Good looking fella asks her out. She smiles and plays it hard to get but in a sweet way. He says something really smart. She smiles again and says "Ok. Let's go out for a drink but only if... (something)".
6. They go out for dinner and after dinner they go for a romantic walk. They laugh and end up doing something random that they both like (watching the night sky looking for paranormal activity).
7. They spent the best 3 weeks of their lives being in love and doing stuff like running in the park, making love, watching movies, laughing while hugging and many more while a Jamie Cullum song plays in the backround.
8. Something happens and they have to break up. (a new job at the other side of the country, cheating, ex lover comes back and confuses good looking girl. Good looking fella lied about something and good looking. girl found out... etc.
9. They spend a year apart (maybe more). This time the background song comes from an alternative rock band who is really rock n' roll but deep inside they have feelings. Suddenly one of them appears out of nowhere in front of the other person. And the guy (who has changed his hair) says something romantic and smart. She cries, they hug, they kiss, I cry, I hug my pillow.
10. Then John Rambo kicks some more ass.
