She can change her name to The Interrupter, and constantly show up to interrupt villainous plots.
A lot of people that claim that “the plot is obvious” has actually NO IDEA WHAT WILL ACTUALLY HAPPEN!
They will just simply point out that they were right if they were at least somewhat near in their assumptions, and if they weren’t, they will instead claim that it is bad storytelling and/or characterization.
They often simply cannot “just enjoy” a story.
That’s not true.
I find most plots to be obvious, because I’ve watched so many movies and TV shows, ect, that I see the same stories repeat time and time again.
And I actually cheer when they don’t follow the obvious route that’s been done a thousand times!
I’ve seen plenty of examples of bad story telling. Sometimes (rarely) it’s because they don’t do what’s expected. But usually it’s because they do exactly what’s expected, while trying to make it seem like they didn’t.
Or it’s because they broke basic storytelling rules, without the awareness required to pull off such a feat successfully.
Typical Review:
The plot remained within my expectations. The twists were predictable, and the main story arc was already well-used when the director was still at primary school. The comic relief gave some relief, and the music did much to enhance the otherwise mundane atmosphere. Overall, an entertaining time for those consumers who aren’t overly critical.
Tropes are redundant, as our superredundant heroes oftentimes. That’s why bad plots are obvious, assuming you don’t have a bird’s bran and fail to connect the dots or just forget about how similar the previous movie you watched this week was.

Oh, excellent. Fat Finger Anonymous strikes again!
That fiend! *raises fist near face*
Pffft. I’d bet she’s the type to interrupt the movie with questions of “What’s going on? Who’s that?” if she didn’t know the plot :p
If the plot is obvious, why would you question it? Questions are for those who don’t understand what has happened and can’t see where it will go. Or for the idiotically impatient who don’t realize the story is still ongoing.
You don’t understand what happened. If you didn’t realize the recipe was a closely guarded secret, and how addictive it was, you wouldn’t need to ask why the people didn’t rebel. As long as they were kept complacent, and the food “cheap,” there is no reason to. That’s how empires and dictatorships work; placate the masses and fortify the royalty.
I totally think Alex should be the main character: she has the right kind of character, i.e. “fuck you why aren’t you thinking the way I do, are you from another planet or as dumb as a lettuce?” I identify with her more and more as this story unravels (earlier her personality was less defined). Genii and movie directors should be more considerate of smart critical people, less selfish-arrogant, smarter. Go Alex, go!
I wonder how many archnemesis she has since she interrupts. You know how much super villains love to monologue about their master plan and hate to be interrupted.
That’s how she kicks supervillain ass: interrupting them all the time, it drives them mad and then they do something even more stupid than monologuing and giving away the details of their devious plan. Some even kill themselves without even asking…
This storyline was fine up until the dumb fried chicken twist, now I’m about as irritated with it as Alex is.
