16 Things You Should Never Say To A Film Buff

12. "I Don't Like Movies..."

Next you'll be saying that you don't like all types of vegetable, or all people from Spain. How do you know that you don't like all science-fiction movies when you refuse to watch all science-fiction movies? IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE.

11. "What's The Name Of That Movie We Watched Last Week?"

You don't remember? It was last week! I've memorised the running time, the names of all the actors, the cinematographer, watched the movies that inspired it, bought the soundtrack, and pre-ordered the 2-disc Blu-Ray for its release in November... and you can't remember the name of the movie? What's wrong with you?

10. "Do You Mind If We Pause This For A Second?"

Why don't we go for a drink whilst we're at it? How 'bout a vacation? Would you ask the projectionist to pause a movie in the theatre halfway through? Don't you know movies are supposed to be viewed from beginning to end as one, fluid whole? Worst first date ever.

9. "I Didn't Like It... Nothing Happened!"

And by "nothing," you presumably mean that it didn't have enough scenes where people's heads were being punched off of their bodies? Yeah, thought so.
