Movie

She just loved movies.

She often had ideas about the sort of movie she would like, if only they would make it. On this occasion, talking with her girlfriend, she had a pretty good idea about the movie they should make. Her friend settled back to listen, she’d been there before.

“Listen,” she begins, “I have this absolutely awesome idea for a movie.”

Resigned, her friend says, “Go on.”

“Just imagine it,” she says, wide eyed and looking star struck, “It’s set in space, you know, with spaceships flying around. There are goodies and baddies of course. The good guy has a sister, she’s a princess, but he doesn’t know she’s his sister. Anyway, his sister’s been captured and held prisoner on this really nasty guy’s spaceship. He’s trying to get information about secret stuff out of her. He’s a really horrible man who has to wear some kind of helmet so he can breathe, but he has super powers that enable him to hurt people that get in his way. These bad people have created this death ray thing that can blow up planets. They get it ready to try it out, and it works! That is a really horrible part of the story. Anyway, meanwhile, her brother, although she doesn’t know he’s her brother, gets onboard the ship, so he can rescue her. But, suddenly, the ship they are all on gets some sort of death ray leak and their spaceship gets blown to smithereens!”

Her friend smiles and says, “Sweetie, they’ve already done it, and you’ve got the ending wrong.”
