D: hello, Jason, there is going to be a screening of Final Destination 3 at our campus cinema tomorrow. I plan to go to see it.
J: is it a horror movie?
D: yeah, I love horror movies. Would you like to go with me tomorrow?
J: no way. I will be scared out of my wits.
D: that's funny, I didn't know a big fellow like you could be so soft and timid on the inside.
J: Hey, how could you like to taste my fist?
D: alright, all joking aside, what kinds of moveis do you like?
J: Um, let me see, romance, comdedy. documentary, action, science fiction, animated and so on.
D: that is to say, you like all genres except for horror movies.
J: yeah. It seems like we don't speak the same language as far as movies are concerned.
D: not quite. I also greatly enjoy romance and comedy.
J: the Notebook is this type of movie.
D: really? I haven't heard of it.
J: well then, this could be a nice opportunity to enjoy it together. I bet you'd love it.
D: Ok. I can't wait to see it. Let's go!
