"Come on Gordon, hurry up already."
"I'm coming, I'm coming! Just getting the popcorn ready."
"It better be sweet. I can't stand it salty!"
"Don't you worry those cute lil blonde curls of yours, Al! I got sweet!"
"Guys, aren't you being a little premature with your food? I mean, we haven't even decided on what movie we're going to watch yet."
"John's got a point. The food will be cold by the time we finally make a decision."
"Yeah, well John's not the one making the popcorn, ape face."
"What did you just call me?"
"He called you ape face, Scott. I didn't think your hearing was getting THAT bad."
"Can it, Virg."
John felt himself smile as a cushion was suddenly launched across the room, smacking into Scott's face. Gordon laughed and sat down in-between Virgil and Alan, holding the large bowl of popcorn close to his chest.
"So fellas, what are we actually going to watch then?" Alan asked, grabbing a fistful of popcorn from the bowl, "And John, please don't say Star Wars again. If I have to sit through any more of those badly animated movies then I'm going to make sure you take up permanent residence on board Thunderbird 5!"
"That wouldn't work, stupid. He'd enjoy that." Gordon put in, dropping a few pieces of popcorn in his mouth.
"You bet I would. Besides, you're on about the prequels! We haven't seen the original three films in ages!" John grinned and shook his head.
"I don't care, we're still not watching them." Alan stated, folding his arms.
"Okay then, what about a horror movie? It's been a while since we've watched one of those." John suggested.
"Yeah guys, he's right. Hey Scott, put on that old film about the massive spiders! You know how much Virgil likes that one."
"Don't you dare, Scott!" Virgil replied tensely, "That film gives me the creeps! Can't we watch a comedy instead?
"Virgil, you always say that." Alan moaned.
Gordon laughed, "It's because he doesn't like watching horror flicks before his bedtime, right Virgie?"
Virgil blushed in response, "That's not it at all! I just prefer comedies!"
Gordon smirked, "Just admit you're a scaredy cat."
"Shut up, the pair of you." Scott butted in before the argument could escalate. "I fancy watching Star Trek anyway."
John shot a seething glare in his direction and shook his head slowly, causing Scott to sweatdrop.
"Uh, alright, I guess we're not watching Star Trek then." He gulped.
"Ooh ooh! What about Cars?" Alan piped up, "You can never go wrong with Disney!"
"It's Pixar, you moron." Virgil grumped, crossing his arms, "But no, let's watch something a little more action orientated. How about Die Hard? That's one of my favourites!"
"Dude, you can only watch Die Hard at Christmas! It's practically illegal to watch it at any other time of year!" Gordon said.
"I hate to admit it, but Gordon's right. It is technically a Christmas movie." John added.
"That's like saying The Nightmare Before Christmas is a Halloween movie! It's actually a Christmas movie but people keep saying it's a Halloween movie just because it's set in Halloween Town!" Virgil complained.
