Imagine being able to stop time!

Just finished reading the thread "worst movie ever". Obviously it isnt, but it could have been so much better. Imagine, having the ability to actually stop time! This is something I (and I bet a lot of you too) have been dreaming and fantasizing about since I was a kid! The possibilities are enormous. There is so much more that the man in the movie with that ability could have done! The movie wasnt bad though, and the acting was okay.

This is my list, and it is not exhaustive:

Robbed a bank and then be amused by the police/press not being able to work out how it was done.

Put a live rat in a public toilet whilst someone was sitting there and then laughed at the screams of terror!

Rig elections.

Assasinate ruthless world dictators.

Make my boss in work go insane by hiding things, or removing his clothes whilst in the car so he turns up for work naked.

Obviously go to girls locker rooms rooms.

Hang the Mona Lisa in my living room (but probably return it after a week or 2 since I think ita a crap painting).

What would you do?

This film is one of the worse exactly for this reason. So this guy has the ability to stop time and what does he do??

He could have done al those things but instead he stalks a woman! Now that is retarded.. waste of 90 minutes!

i would stop time, find the writers of this movie, punch them a couple times in the gut, and laugh when i restarted time cuz that would kill them.

You are brutual. I would just stop time right before i decided to rent this movie. However, I think your idea of punching the people involved is probably better.

I read your post and immediately thought of a Louie CK routine about being able to go back in time:

9 out of 10 people answer that they would go to the 30/40's and kill hitler. What makes them think they could kill him anyway?

Oh, and robbing a bank: good idea, I thought of that too, but what about footprints, skin cells, hairs, etc. You leave a trace...
Same goes for the Mona Lisa.....

P.S.: do you have a fetish with your boss being naked in work? *cough*
