Our previous fight almost ended in a three-way tie, but Shannon managed pull ahead at the last minute with fan favorite Lizzy Bennett. Yet another win for Shannon means she gets the honor of choosing this week’s question:

I immediately thought of the films I fell asleep in the theater during (Fire in the Sky, Bram Stoker's Dracula) and the ones I actually did walk out on (Even Cowgirls Get the Blues, a few others) but one that I should have walked out on but didn't was very recent: Terminator: Dark Fate.
I wanted so bad to love this movie that I subconsciously talked myself into thinking it was good. I'm a huge Terminator fan and I've longed to see someone take the franchise where it can and should go with better writing. I squirmed in my seat in the opening sequence when they completely decimated the hard fought victories of the original trilogy. I convinced myself it was good, that the older Sarah Connor wasn't an unwatchable sourpuss. Only after rewatching it did I realize how terrible it was and how it deserves to be cast into the fires of Mount Doom lest it cause any more damage. I knew it in that opening scene, but I rationalized myself into liking it. Booooooo.
Scream. I should’ve driven off and left Vin to take a cab home. 😁 I worked evenings at a large coffee shop and was the only closer in this big cafe of huge windows, just blackness beyond, with a hallway and a couple walls that it was way too easy to imagine anyone could be lurking behind. (He has apologized MANY times since.😂🤍)
