The Movie Buff	comment	One of the defining traits of this particular character is their movie lore. This character will compare nearly everything to a scene from a movie. While this character might be Genre Savvy (or Wrong Genre Savvy), it's not a requirement. Additionally, The Movie Buff usually knows all about Oscar nominees, Oscars won, actors, directors, Emmy awards, how a movie was received, who the screenwriter and editors were. Some film geeks may get obsessed with lenses, film cameras, and film editing. They may be a budding film student or media studies student. This is usually a source of pride for said character but can sometimes be a source of chagrin for the rest of the cast. Their knowledge is likely to be used for humor more often than it is used as a plot point. Compare: Saw "Star Wars" Twenty-Seven Times, Unabashed B-Movie Fan. See The Genie Knows Jack Nicholson for characters that know our movies while living in a fantasy setting.

The Movie Buff / int_2212773a	comment	The eponymous brooding hero of Angel is quite the cinema aficionado himself. He's a fan of Charlton Heston movies, particularly The Ωmega Man. What a surprise. He's also seen enough vampire flicks to formulate opinions on which ones are more accurate (Frank Langella nailed it). Wesley and Gunn also share a love of movies to the point imagining they are some character in some film when a crisis hits, and in a case of Hypocritical Humor, so does Cordelia.

The Movie Buff / int_7257afca	comment	Sword Art Online Abridged: Akihiko Kayaba kicks off the series by comparing the players' situation to TRON, but is irritated when they're too young to have seen the film. He eventually resorts to playing a clip from Scanners to make his point about the consequences of their characters' HP hitting zero. Guild leader Heathcliff also likes to drop movie quotes like "you can't fight in here, this is the war room!" and "go ahead, make my day." Again, most players don't get them. Finally, Kirito is a Pop-Cultured Badass able to quote a variety of TV shows, literature, and even classic movies like Duck Soup. The fact that he's the only one who gets Heathcliff's movie references is what lets him make the connection that he and Kayaba are the same person.

Dr. Wells, who is Not So Above It All and apparently has regular movie nights with him, is usually the one who finds it the most entertaining and can often be seen smiling in the background whenever Cisco makes references, or even making his own in response.

The Movie Buff / int_a796bde8	comment	Metal Gear Solid, which given their head creator, shouldn't at all be surprising. Paramedic of Metal Gear Solid 3 fame loves trashy B-movies and describes their plots to Snake in ways appropriate for the setting at that point. Raiden himself is just as big of a cinema buff, though arguably inclined more towards quality films. This has a somewhat darker connotation when it turns out that one of his tortures as a child was to watch 'Hollywood movies every night... the kind with macho guys and big guns. They called it "image training".' Solid Snake has displayed an interest in John Carpenter movies as well as making a joke about Star Wars. Strangelove in Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker is a huge fan of Stanley Kubrick and frequently references his films in her dialogue and scientific work, even to the extent of naming her own child after a character from 2001: A Space Odyssey. We are repeatedly told that Ocelot is a massive fan of Spaghetti Westerns, though the timeline is a little wobbly on this. Word of God says he specifically imported A Fistful of Dollars from Italy to see it before its release elsewhere.

Due to the mutation she was born with, she has become long-lived and now lives in a world that rarely has electricity, much less any movies. Now, her ultimate goal in life is to turn the conflict between Agni and his targets into one final movie, playing both sides to film the most interesting story she can, even if no one will ever watch it. She is also very knowledgeable about Western movies, name dropping films such as Vanilla Sky. The mysterious girl who looks like Agni's dead sister is also a film fan as well. In fact, her whole motivation is to reset the human race and get it back to the point right before the world froze over, just so she can finally watch the final Star Wars movie, which got canceled.

The Movie Buff / int_c35e8e1a	comment	Katie Mitchell from The Mitchells vs. the Machines is an aspiring filmmaker who just got accepted to the film school of her dreams, so it's only natural she'd be this. She tends to make references and comparisons to movies, like Mad Max or Dawn of the Dead, and many of her own films' titles are references to other movies (including older or more obscure ones like Being There or Au Hasard Balthazar).

He's the kind of film snob that says America hasn't produced a great movie since Pulp Fiction (ironic given how recent that movie is). He sneers with derision when Sam talks about how much he liked Avatar. Avery's a purist who thinks films should only be shown on film rather than digital. And he has an encyclopedic knowledge of films that allows him to play Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon with demonic skill.
