The Greatest Theory Known to Man.

The "I was just talking about that movie!" theory. The vast majority of this is actually a repost from that crappy little MySpace blog. I can't remember exactly the movie it occured with this weekend, but it did, so I was reminded of this theory. I promise you that this will be the most awesome theory you'll read in this post today.

So, a few years ago, I think with my friend Nat (now playing bass for Cinder Road, who opened up on a US tour for Chris Daughtry!), I came up with this theory, and I haven't thought about it for years. Here's how it goes. If you haven't seen a movie in a long time, at least 5 years, and you talk about it it will come on TV. Maybe not immediately, usually two months at the most. I first noticed this in late middle school or high school. I was talking to one of my oldest friends, Bosch, about "KISS Meets the Phantom of the Park" and lo and behold, within a few weeks it was on TV (WGN I think). I also noticed after awhile that you can't reference this phenomenon or else it doesn't work.

So, why am I mentioning this? I haven't thought about it in awhile, mainly because I hadn't mentioned any really old movies that I haven't actually seen for several years. But last night, I watched the last half of "North Shore." Anybody else remember that movie? Kid from Arizona wins a wave pool surfing contest, goes to Hawaii, learns life lessons as he learns to big wave surf? Yeah, it's bad. But anyone that knows me knows I love bad movies. Well, I can't remember who I was talking to about this movie not that long ago. Might have been Josh and Fernando, maybe it was Greg, but whoever it was, we somehow started talking about Sideout, and I mentioned that I liked it better when it was about surfing and called North Shore (The exact same line I use for Fast and the Furious and Point Break). Now that I think about it, it might have been Mad Dog at a volleyball game. So color me surprised when I flip through the channels last night and see North Shore. I turned it on right when the poor hoale (pronounced howl-lee, brah) is getting his ass whupped by the brothers of the girl he's trying to get with. Of course the idiot falls for a local girl. But that has nothing to do with the theory.

Seriously, this works. Of course, you can't practically test it since you can't just start talking about movies you haven't seen in a long time with the intent to get it to happen. It just has to happen. But once it does, you'll notice it. Alot.

Bask in my glory, everyone. You may want to put on SPF 30.
