Any suggestions on movies, films worth watching that isn't about AFC's but glorifies the true essence of a DJ. Thanks
"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.

"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

American Psycho.
Like the title implies, it's about a psyho/sociopath with narcissistic tendencies who does all he can to look the best and be the best. I love the movie, and the book is even better.
Fight Club.
obvious choice.
the first two seasons of the tv show Dexter is a good choice in my opinion.

Not a lot of movies are, in and of themselves, worthy of study, but plenty of characters (at least in certain situations) are worthy of study.
Take Tom Cruise's character in the recent Jack Reacher movie. While not about picking up girls, it's a great study in frame control. He controls pretty much every conversation he's in, regardless of what happens.
Or a few choice scenes of Jimmy The Saint in "Things To Do In Denver When You're Dead," when he first picks up and seduces his girl.
There was a GREAT scene in "The Departed" when Matt Damon's character was busting on his police appointed therapist during their first date.
Then there's the absolute classic from Star Wars:
Lea: I love you
Han: I know

That's actually a pretty common behavior trait of guys who get laid a lot. Not the imaginary "alphas" in the movies, (who are actually written by beta screenwriters with zero clue), but guys who just HAVE FUN wherever they are and whomever they're with, WITHOUT worrying what others think.Fatal Jay said:
While I'm trying to find one in my head, I think it is worth noting that I went into Don Jon with decent expectations but wow, that movie totally fell apart for me, I wouldn't recommend that at all.
I always remember the beginning/first half of the movie Wanted being pretty fvcking empowering. Movie kind of loses steam from there, but its worth watching.

For context, his best friend is fvcking is girlfriend and he's at a dead end job and is too beta to do anything about it until he realizes what he really is.

The Last American Virgin
"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Lol what? It's a good movie but the dude in the movie was a beta. His best bud banged the girl he always wanted, his best bud got her pregnant, the main star helped her get an abortion, and then the chick went right back to the main star best friend.
Samspade I agree with American beauty the husband kelvin spade went from beta to alpha, hate what happened to him at the end.
