Conor: I’m not a fan of [the Godfather movies].
Me: What if Swayze had played the Brando role?
Conor: They couldn't have had a death scene then.
Me: Why not?
Conor: Swayze doesn't die. The one movie where they tried to make him die, he came the fuck back and avenged himself. Other people get avenged; he fucking does it HIMSELF.
Me: What about Point Break?
Conor: People assume he died. But he didn't, clearly, or else how would they have Point Break II: Point Breaker?
Me: Actually, it's going to be called Pointer Break.
Conor: When they cast him in North and South, they actually tried to rewrite it so the South would win the war because they thought it would be too unrealistic if Swayze lost.
Me: It's insane that they even cast him as a Confederate soldier in the first place.
Conor: Well, they didn't want people to know what the resolution was in advance, like in Titanic. This way, people weren't sure who was gonna win. Because, I mean, we don't still have slaves, but maybe there was a second civil war or something that he didn't fight in.
Me: Ah, very smart. That must have been Swayze's idea.
