That one guy that blows it for the justification of the movie.
I’m watching Rookie of the Year, one of those movies where a kid has a freak accident and is now a super athlete. (In this case, breaks his arm, tightens the tendons in his elbow, so he can slingshot a baseball at over 100mph.)
So they do that thing where he’s fucking terrible for a while. Throws a home run pitch, hits a few players, crazy pitches etc etc.
BUT THEN. That “one guy” comes up to bat. All confident like, probably thinking something along the lines of “Pft, stupid kid, i’ll show him that the big leagues are for grown ups.” Well…unfortunately for Joe Cocky, he’s officially the climax.
Strike 1! Omfg, no more terrible pitches EVER, and that’s the first douche who gets to experience it. What a loser. I hope his teammates kick the shit out of him in the locker room, right before the orgy.
Happens all the time in these flicks. Think back to Keenan Thompson’s character in The Might Duck Films. It’s Knucklepuck time!
One of these days, they’ll let talented people write in hollywood.
