"Yeah just like that, but this one serves beer and popcorn." He says with a grin and then shrugs.
"I dunno if I'd call myself a cinephile, I watch a lot of shitty movies and enjoy them just as much as good ones. I just like movies."
Her question makes him pause and he shrugs again.
"Nah, making a movie is a ton of effort and I've never written anything that is good enough to warrant spending so much effort on seeing it through."

Lois shrugs. “It doesn’t have to be from the Criterion Collection for a movie to be good.”
They’re interrupted by the waitress bringing their food. Lois thanks her, then starts to dig into her pancakes.
“But you have written things before?” she asks.

Lois gives him a quizzical look. “Is that a bad thing? I’ve written stuff too. Nothing serious. Most of it’s from high school.”
She hasn’t had a lot of time to write for pleasure since then, between college and work.
