MacGuffin noun : an object, event, or character in a film or story that serves to keep the plot in motion despite lacking intrinsic importance. Like the glowing suitcase in Pulp Fiction, the letters of transit in Casablanca, or the rug in The Big Lebowski this playlist isn’t about the music itself but what happens because of it. Virtual boy, Radikal Guru, and Snowman are all trivial&# ...

... saw online after the finale was the assertion that Conrad Hilton was a MacGuffin, which is something I find legitimately fascinating. If Conrad Hilton had ... that scene in the finale. I have two issues with this, the first about the character of Suzanne herself, who is definitely more of a MacGuffin than Hilton is. I understand that there is something about the character which makes her appealing to ...

So my players recently acquired the macguffin they needed, only to have it snatched from their hands. Stepping outside they were confronted with a force they could not defeat, and were tied up and their object ... something. There were several ways they could react. I admit, I wanted them to react by giving up the macguffin, as it leads to a fun little arc that'll tie us up for christmas, but if ...

... the database in the control room... which means she's... Stone: Our MacGuffin! I'll just be taking that nanomachine colony with me, thank you! During the drive to SoCal for Thanksgiving, ... because in the resulting discussion, Zach said the same thing about Emeralda: she's the MacGuffin, and otherwise insignificant. On one hand, I have to protest, because she is involved in the Fei/ ...

... gild the lily here and there, but there were grains — or huge chunks — of truth in what he told every one of them. He really does need Roger, a seasoned accounts man. Connie may have been a Macguffin this season — the Hilton account was dangled in front of Don but it was snatched away again. (On the one hand, Don had every right to be ticked at Connie, who treated Don like a ...

... chase but big budget William Friedkin-style action sequences. Apparently a dirty cop is “desperate to get his hands” on an envelope the messenger received from Columbia University (the Macguffin?). As much as I’m not a fan of Koepp’s filmmaking choices thus far, I’m always game for another chase movie, especially a film with a budget. Columbia Pictures is apparently ...

... Nations especially included, immediately takes the Russians' side. Days later the Russians launch a huge combined-arms invasion of the United States, thanks to having acquired a typical Hollywood computer macguffin that lets them slip past all early warning networks. Mounting such a colossal assault on the United States would require months if not years of obvious preparation -- look at how ...

Clearly this is either an old patent or a Macguffin because whatever this thing is it’s not the iPad. Basically you’ve got some sort of tablet app for recognizing pen input in phrases instead of in “chunks.” UnwiredReview found the patent and shared it with the whole wide world.

... at Yellowstone… VERY impressive. And of course the expanded version of the destruction of California was well done (and strangely satisfying… I kid, I kid). The arks were quite cool as well, although the MacGuffin that caused the “suspense” at the end was quite ridiculous. There’s a a fair amount of ridiculousness in 2012, but really, what does one expect going into ...

... many good actors in this film, you don’t need a lot of dead weight hogging the screen. New characters flow in and out without an apparent purpose, often serving as nothing more than a MacGuffin to either reveal something about another character or simply set up a joke. The constant interruption disrupts the already tenuous main story and can often make the movie seem like it’s simply ...

... ! A tense, engaging thriller, it features criminals who spend their time screwing with a blind woman just because they can. It would have been easier for them to tie her up and search the apartment for the missing MacGuffin, but that's not their style. Hepburn plays Suzy Hendrix, a woman who has been blind for about a year after a fiery car accident. After her accident she met Sam (Ephram ...

... correct, but I was hoping that with such an entirely implausible plot this half-symbolic idea of Kara becoming joined from her opposing halves might provide some kind of intellectual MacGuffin, if you will. Or...something. That scene is also meant to portray that neither Bones nor Jim really gets Kara more than the other; both are presenting the ideas they can live with if they never see her again ...

... to "know" him. Was this something that was planned from the outset? Was the question of "why" he does it ever intended to be resolved, even obliquely, or was it always a MacGuffin, a way to get the story going, to get us into this world and these characters? RYAN: Jebadiah Sminch, as a character, is designed to have some moral ambiguity. I feel like it's important that ...

... figuring in the story, and No. 6’s flashbacks to his life in New York. In the original, No. 6’s backstory–”Why did you resign?”–was more of a MacGuffin than a key part of the story. This version seems more focused on that story rather than the intellectual sparring between No. 6 and authority, represented by No. 2 (in several persons in the original). That ...
