Post-Cinematic Paranoia

The paranoia you receive after watching a horror movie.

Mostly affects your reality and gives you the thought of being in the position of the main character in the movie, or being a target of the being which makes the movie scary.
Paranormal Activity is what inspired this word, for it is the perfect example.
After watching the movie, viewers are more alert to the slightest noises and fear that they are the target for a haunting, hence, Post-Cinematic Paranoia.

George Lucas's first rule of cinematography

A rule first postulated by known film director George Lucas, stating that, "In any given movie franchise, at least one third of the films will suck." In addition to his own Star Wars prequels, some examples of movie sagas that follow this rule are: the Matrix saga, The Godfather trilogy, The Planet of the Apes, Shrek.

An exception to the rule is Toy Story, while the ultimate application of the rule is the Twilight Saga, wherein all the movies suck, the novels sucked, and yet there's another movie in the making.
Son: Dad, do you want to watch the Phantom Menace?
John: There were no prequels, and I have no son.

Paul: Should we watch Godfather Part II?
Sam: Does George Lucas's first rule of cinematography apply to it?
Paul: On the contrary, it's the best in the series!

Cinematic Abortion

When a movie premise is thought of with sincerity and ambition, then ego and money come in, take a wire hanger, and scrape out an underdeveloped movie fetus and present it to the world with no shame.

Cynthia: Yeah. My uterus hurt the entire time.
