Slow Clap

Was watching the movie "Definitely, Maybe" the other day. Not very good. I would say, definitely, maybe, no.

In the middle of this "rom-com" (and I would use that term very loosely), the movie throws in a completely unearned slow clap.

Now don't get me wrong, I am the biggest fan of the slow clap. I often like training my class to do the perfect slow clap. Nothing is greater than pulling the slow clap on someone who enters the classroom. However, in a movie the slow clap should only be pulled after some sort of stirring inspirational speech. Not for selling some seats to a fancy pants dinner like in Definitely, Maybe.

If you are not sure what the slow clap is I found a good slow clap montage from a bunch of movies. Great splicing. Love the Cool Runnings shot.

And that's that.
