20 of the Worst Technically Correct Ways to Describe Classic Movies
We’ve all got that friend who’s just bad at describing things. You were shocked to visit their home and find that the housemate they kept complaining about wasn’t a roommate but an iguana. You still don’t know their favorite food because they can only tell you that it’s a combination of meat and cheese encased in starch. You’ve learned to just tag along wherever they go because it could be a secret Beyoncé concert, could be a literal dumpster.
What they’ll never tell you is that describing things badly is fun. They might not be doing it on purpose, but they’re not not enjoying it. In fact, describing things badly can be a great creative exercise or at least a nifty party game. That’s why user ehudros asked r/AskReddit, “What is your worst, technically correct summary of a movie plot?”
