How do you feel about "predictable" plot devices?

On this week's episode of The Hollywood Outsider podcast, we wanted to talk about those regurgitated and predictable plots and devices that every movie has reused at this point. We discuss some of our favorites predictable plot devices, as well as the ones that drive us NUTS! Of course, a debate emerges as we even discuss the negative connotation behind the word "predictable". 

Also on this week's episode: our news roundup, significant anniversary: 40th anniversary of Friday the 13th,  spoiler-free reviews of Hammer, Scoob!, and Survive the Night, and The HO Teachable Minute.
