    As a bonus, I remember watching Walker Texas Ranger with my father in law, amd the amount of times people had their sights on him and didn't shoot him was ridiculous. He'd have died so fast.

      Couple of small issues with that idea: can't hide from the big fiery sauron eye, and nazguls on pteradactyls.

      In addition to the flying Nazgûl and what not, the ring could corrupt the proud eagle. They'd just fly off with it and then you have another problem.

    Fight Club and the countless movies like it, which are character-driven and the character is driven by extremely maladjusted desires and behaviors.

    "Alright, but isn't that being ableist in Fight Club's case?"

    No, if both of the alters acted like normal people, you'd just have an especially weird buddy comedy with none of the conflict of the original movie.

    Donnie Darko

    oh the weird bunny man who is the dead boyfriend of your sister told you to come out of bed and onto the street?

    Nah, bad dream, just stay in bed. Jet engine goes boom, Donnie's buried under, only one other family in another timeline loses a jet engine, story over in 5 minutes...

    ...unless the story then fixates on the other timeline where a jet engine just vanished off a plane and no one knows where, ah goddamit
