A flash fiction ode to those tween twits who keep the marketing departments employed. Used to be, you 'd seen the only parts of a movie worth paying for when you'd watched the 2 or 3 minute trailer, but now, it takes only 6 seconds; unless, of course, you want to see the 2 or 3 minute trailer that the 6 second trailer was previewing so you'd hopefully pluck down the 12 bucks to see the 7200 second movie that is due in, oh, let's be fair, 6 months, 12 months, 18 months from now? And we thought adolescent mentality necessarily harbored only short attention spans.

OMG now I know why people look at me crazy when I ask who wrote it, and they reply wrote what, duh, the movie, TV show you just watched. Did you really think the actors just made up ALL THE WORDS, called dialogue, as they went along? I ask my husband all the time, where have all the good screenplay writers gone. Okay I read the book "Twilight ", hell it didn't take much effort to put that into screenplay format, the book was like reading a screenplay. My husband won't even bother watching a movie these days, not new ones. My grandson loves movies so I am definitely teaching to look beyond the screen and the actors. And he does. I love it. Next visit we are gonna do our own little zombie movie, cause where I live the night vision is perfect, plus we have the woods, we have so much fun. OMG its like gonna be like you know OMG awesome.

It's known in educational circles as "dumbing down". Short and sweet.

All the better for multitasking my dear. Why, they could watch it while driving and texting (or was that sexting?) before you could text a three letter expletive! I can't wait for the DVD of the dash–cam sometime next year. Russian cameras are already here.
