Movie Characters I Would Take to Dinner

Going out to dinner is one of life's simple pleasures. However, going to dinner with friends and family is almost completely useless. They always want to talk about irrelevant things like what they have been up to and how I am doing. Therefore, I prefer to microwave a pot pie, blindfold myself, and venture off into my imagination to dine with some of the most prolific movie characters I know.
Buddy the Elf
When going to dinner with non-movie characters, they are often not very silly at the table. They take part in antiquated rituals such as table manners and eating with silverware. It is much more interesting to stuff my mouth with pot pies while I lay on the floor and think of all the silly things that Buddy the Elf would do at a nice dinner.
Perhaps he would order their finest steak and then proceed to drizzle his famous maple syrup onto it. The server stands there, mouth agape, watching this silly fella sweeten his meat. Maybe Buddy even puts sprinkles on it too. The possibilities are nearly endless when dining with an elf.

Batman
While I have dined with a few members of the police department, Batman has fought more crime than your average officer of the law. Real life police often drone on and on about hitting people with their sticks and flashing those strange lights on their cars. I prefer to shove pot pie after pot pie into my body while sitting in a dark room imagining a fascinating conversation with Batman about his experience keeping Gotham safe.
Batarangs have always interested me from a young age, so I would like to ask Mr. Batman why he likes them so much. I would also like to inquire about his secret identity. I feel like everybody wants to know who he is when he isn't fighting crime, so I figure I can ask him while we are out to eat.

Zombies
I have gone out to eat with a few alive humans in my life, and the conversation usually goes nowhere at all. In my experience, they prefer to talk about the food and ambiance instead of chatting about what it's like to live six feet underground in a coffin. Obviously, there is always eventually a strange unexplainable disturbance that allows zombies to rise out of their graves. Anyways, while I consume hundreds and hundreds of pot pies and drift off into the darkness, I find it much more appealing to discuss life as a zombie than life as a normal human.
There are so many more interesting topics to talk about with a zombie than with a normal person. How does raw human brain taste? How did you die? What do you like to do with your time now that you have been raised from the dead but now crave flesh? There are so many more possibilities when dining with a zombie.

Where I Would Take Them to Dinner
I think that I would take them somewhere nice but still affordable.

Conclusion
Life is not worth living if you don't get to enjoy a succulent meal with those you care about most. Dining with fun movie characters will help you enjoy your pot pies much more. Friends and family are useless and will only hold you back from enjoying a lighthearted meal.



Very insightful!
