520    "Movies (And Other Things) is a book about, quite frankly,
       movies (and other things). One of the chapters, for 
       example, answers which race Kevin Costner was able to 
       white savior the best, because did you know that he white 
       saviors Mexicans in McFarland, USA, and white saviors 
       Native Americans in Dances with Wolves, and white saviors 
       Black people in Black or White, and white saviors the 
       Cleveland Browns in Draft Day? Another of the chapters, 
       for a second example, answers what other high school movie
       characters would be in Regina George's circle of friends 
       if we opened up the Mean Girls universe to include other 
       movies (Johnny Lawrence is temporarily in, Claire from The
       Breakfast Club is in, Ferris Bueller is out, Isis from 
       Bring It On is out...). Another of the chapters, for a 
       third example, creates a special version of the Academy 
       Awards specifically for rom-coms, the most underrated 
       movie genre of all. And another of the chapters, for a 
       final example, is actually a triple chapter that serves as
       an NBA-style draft of the very best and most memorable 
       moments in gangster movies. Many, many things happen in 
       Movies (And Other Things), some of which funny, others of 
       which are sad, a few of which are insightful, and all of 
       which are handled with the type of care and dedication to 
       the smallest details and pockets of pop culture that only 
       a book by Shea Serrano can provide"--|cProvided by
