I'll freely admit that I'm too stupid to understand or remember the plot of most texts. (Yet I still like fiction!) Anna has informed me that this is cramping her style as she is bored with analyzing characters and wants to analyze some plots. But she says she can't play "find the plot hole" because she would have to explain the whole plot first, even if it's something we've just watched, and it's not worth it.

So, in an effort to become better at understanding plots, I challenge you to challenge me to:

1. Remember the main plot events--not the character arc--of any TV show, movie, book, etc. (I don't need to remember every event; in fact it is more impressive if I am able to identify which events are actually important)
2. Point out one (1) interesting event, clever bit strategy, or cool sequence of cause-and-effect
3. Point out one (1) legitimate plot hole (by which I mean a question or unresolved issue which (a) is not adequately explained by the text, and (a) is not character based.)

Name any text I know (anything you know or suspect I've read/seen in the last ten years or so) and I will endeavor to do all three! I will not use any reference sources.

ETA The actual synopses (spoiler warning) are under the cut and in comments, but here are my grades so far as determined by a panel of experts (largely me checking on my own work. Dispute as necessary.)

Princess Bride: A
Babylon 5: D
Star Trek: DS9: D-
Serenity: E
Tenth Kingdom: C+
Twilight: A-
True Blood: A+ (what??? why??)
