Speaking of Manic Pixie Dream People....

I stumbled upon this video today whilst browsing the internet. This chick has got it down pretty solidly. Solidly? Anyway. She does a great/entertaining job of explaining why Summer in "500 Days of Summer" is not a Manic Pixie Dream Girl, and why this is good news for everyone. Plus, I think this girl would be one of my best friends ever if I knew her.

 
I think we are all guilty of fantasizing about our Manic Pixie Dream Person. And we should all stop. Post-haste.
Because someone real is better than a fantasy.
