Z Is For...

My theme for the A To Z Challenge 2014 is things I’ve learnt from movies. Some are serious, some are silly. And some I was clutching at straws.

I’ve tried to find clips of said movies where possible. So if I couldn’t find a clip and you haven’t seen the movie… well you’ll have to take my word for it.

 Z is for Zombieland.

The plot:

A shy student trying to reach his family in Ohio, and a gun-toting tough guy trying to find the Last Twinkie and a pair of sisters trying to get to an amusement park join forces to travel across a zombie-filled America.

And for my final A To Z post for 2014 what I learnt was that practical jokes can go very, very wrong.

(this movie is rated 15 in the UK)

 Y is for You've Got Mail.

Basic plot:

Two business rivals hate each other at the office but fall in love over the internet.

This is my all time favourite rom com and I wanted to mention it so the thing that I learnt from this movie falls in to the clutching at straws catergory.

I learnt that daisies are the friendliest flower (which is briefly mentioned in this clip - this movie is rated PG in the UK)

 X is for X-Men.

Plot:

Two mutants come to a private academy for their kind whose resident superhero team must oppose a terrorist organization with similar powers.

I learnt from X-Men that you don't have to necessarily be nice in order to prove you are friendly. :)

Just to set the scene - there is a mutant in the vicinity who can impersonate anyone she meets. (this movie is rated 12 in the UK)
