When a character in a film/tv show has little to no income, yet lives in a place that would cost them thousands of dollars in real life. This also applies to material possesions i.e. a character driving a brand new car whilst working as a bouncer at a local bar. The phrase was originally coined by TJ Kirk a.k.a. The Amazing Atheist.

Get the ip moviemug. A movie, normally with high production value that centers around some random guy finding a robot or other thing and builds a bond with it. Then he find's out that the owner wants it back and action ensues. Most of these movies have the same plot just a different robot or setting.
Todd: Hey do you wanna go see that robot movie that just came out?
Rob: No they're basically all the same movie...

Get the movie sciencemug. Movie moment: an iconic, occurrence or happening that is so incredibly great it seems as if it were scripted for a rom-com. It can at times be cheesy but is not required to be. It’s often a moment that you leaves you in awe, simply perfect.
Girl 1: “We met at a party, ditched it and went for bowling and milkshakes. At the end of the night he kissed me under the full moon!!!”
Girl 2: “wow! You’re so lucky! That is SUCH a movie moment.”
