You know what I really miss from movies these days? The nonsensical addition of those Rube Goldberg like machines to make your breakfast. Bring them back!!
Just Sam and Bucky, helping AJ and Cass create an intricate Rube Goldberg machine in their apartment during a lazy afternoon. Sarah films the entire intricate series of events that leads to the machine toasting some Pop Tarts.
Tw: Discussions of death in the least serious of ways
I'm tired of Truck-kun tbh. We need spicier ways to Isekai protagonists. I think that it's a shame that no one ever dies in interesting ways in Isekai's.
How about a terminal illness, a career injury, suicide, cardiac arrest, overdose, gun violence?
How about we say fuck it and kill someone via a Rube Goldberg Machine!? Like fuck whatever your plot is, if you make a Rube Goldberg Machine- that makes sense in universe - to kill of your protag with, I will stick with your story to the end just to see what kind of crazy shit you can come up with to top that.

He built a cigarette lighter that was yay high, and so big, and he’d put a cigarette in it, and it traveled through Ferris wheels and merry-go-rounds…round and round, came out at the top. An American flag went up on a flagpole, a picture of Louis B. Mayer went up on a flagpole, and the thing handed you a lighted cigarette. I’ll never forget that. It was a real picture of Hollywood!”
In fact, the cigarette lighter, three feet in height and composed of 567 separate parts, was exhibited at San Francisco’s Union Label and Industrial Exhibition in 1940. “I built this thing in my spare time from one of those mechanical sets you give children,” he said at the time.The difference between my invention and Rube Goldberg? Mine works, while his are crazy!”
