Movies Is there any movie where you would succeed if you were the main character?

Before Sunrise. All I need is to be a dumb tourist in foreign country who chats up a chick. I wouldn't survive the sequels though because I'm not getting married to a chick I met once and hooked up with.

I'd totally survive the predator though. The predator would take one look at me and think, "I don't want to hurt this small child."

I think those Before movies are great. All three of them. Rare to see a trilogy where every entry is a classic.

I used to love the first one and dislike the third, not because it wasn't good, but because it hit a bit too close to home.

But the older I get, I'm starting to see them in a different light. I used to love the first one when I was younger, but now I understand the sequels better.
 
Bowman, fuck HAL, I'm pulling that cunts power as soon as I hear it's snarky voice....... Everyone lives and we get to investigate the trippy monolith together........
 
More or less every horror movie that follows this recipe: people getting kidnapped, locked up, or hunted by some idiot or a pack of out of shape fools.
 
I rewatched interstellar recently and realized that if I were the dude in the black hole, I couldn't save the world because I don't know Morse code, and even if I did, I don't know anyone that that knows it, so I couldn't communicate with anyone.

Then I started wondering if there was any movie where I could replace the main character and win.

Die hard? Nope. They'd have to call it die quick.

Predator? Nope, I wouldn't even make Arnold's elite squad.

Terminator????? I think maybe I could win here. Because if I were Sarah Connor, all I'd have to do it bang Kyle Reese and he would do all the fighting for me. Then at the end i just have to push a button to crush the T-800. Of course, banging Reese would be no easy task since I'm straight and he smells like hobo piss.
I'd do great in Office Space, Idiocracy, and Knocked Up.
 
Home Alone

I grew up with guns in my house, and at Kevin's age I had been hunting and shooting long enough to know how to use them.

The movie would be shorter and there'd be no sequels
