Recently had a realisation that Tories might watch the same films as us and be routing for the baddies. Feels like the concept for a Future of the Left song.
In How I Met Your Mother, Barney’s hero is Billy Zabka, aka the bad guy from the Karate Kid, who he sees as the real hero of the film since he works hard to be good at karate and is only beaten by Daniel cheating in the final match.
What’s funny is that throwaway gag basically got turned into a whole show in the form of Cobra Kai.
