"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

This one is supposed to be "Incredible." :p

My gut tells me that The Dark Knight is going to blow them all away.

ah, I don't know. I'm not a batman fanatic that much. I thought the last one was alright. I would like to watch it again because I think that I was pissed off the last time I watched it.

Damn that was a good movie. Robert Downey Jr. Is the man. He's like a so suave superhero.

And yeah you have to wait till the credits are over, very cool.

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

They showed the batman trailer and I can't wait for that either. Batman is dark, it's supposed to be, and works that way. Most of these superhero movies are about men who find some challenge in their lives and go through this personal metamophosis, in the Iron Man case, it was very positive. Nothing really depressing or overwhelming (though he becomes a drunk eventually), just a guy kicking ass and figuring himself out. Good DJ movie.

Remember the scene when he's walking into his charity event at his first public appearance after his escape...

HB: (waving franticly) TONY! TONY! Remember me!!!????

TS: (walking past without looking at HB) I certainly don't.

Priceless... :up:

Beyond your peripheral vision
Just stood all my girls up last minute because of this thread.

Another reason I sometimes prefer guy friends. The girls just don't get excited about these movies like I do! "Comic book movies just so aren't my thing. I don't see what all the hype is about."

False eyelashes, short dresses, free drinks and dancing all night long? Or super hot super c0cky super hero with superb one liners and explosions? Hmmm. Easy choice! PLUS a new Batman preview!?!?!? Fahgedaboutit.


BTW, Francisco, you are such as @ss for that. Now I probably won't get a laugh out of that scene. I should neg rep you.

That was a slick film. The humor level was off the scale. These marvel movies get better and better. I'd really like to see a Moonknight movie but I know it'll never happen since the character is too similar to batman. I'd also like to see DC step it up and make a Green Lantern film or something. Superman and Batman are the only DC characters that get any props. A Movie involving Dark Seide and Orion would be cool too.

I watched Iron Man premiere, there is a scene after the credits where they'll introduce The Avengers concept.

The movie is very good. Shocked to see Downey toned his body for the movie. He owned this movie.

Also note, Robert Downey Jr will also make an appearance in the new Hulk movie as Tony Stark.

Marvel is trying to link together the Marvel Universe with these movies (expect a spidey, hulk, x-men, fantastic 4 and iron man movie perhaps fighting against Onslaught?).

DC comic are already linking their heroes in their movies by introducing a JLA movie soon.

Comic books make good movies. They don't really make very good books IMO :p
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Looks like I'll have to check this movie out. From my experience, superhero movies are all cookie-cutter plots that follow the same story arc(ie. redundant). I'll give a little review tomorrow once I've seen it.

cheers guys

Dude, remind me not to tell you any secrets; you have SPOILER written across your forehead, way to be popular. I drop a line but you drop the premise of all the sequals! :woo:

Oh that's FAR from the best line of the movie. The movie had better lines.
