Purple Rain is my first film of 2011

I'm watching it and I realized that in the first scene Jill stands there for about ten minutes with Appolonia's application from the time Prince leaves the stage to the time he appears by the bar to stare down Apples. Doesn't Jill work?

Wait a second. Now another nitpick came up: billy tells Prince he has three acts, he doesn't need four so that means one of them has got to go. It's the Revolution, The Time, and the Modernaires. He wants to make room for Appolonia 6. So why doesn't he just fire the Modernaires?

There are a few plot holes in the movie.

Like, the Revolution does "Let's Go Crazy" at the beginning and then they leave the stage. So how come Billy doesn't ask, "What's up with this one song shit?" then?

You should have called a press conference for broadcast on MTV and then said very slowly and enigmatically:

"Violence is something that happens in every day life and I was only telling a story, and I wish it was looked at that way but I don't think anything I did was unnecessary. Sometimes for the sake of humour I may have gone overboard, and if that was the case then I'm sorry but that was not the intention".

I suspect yoiu would have still got the shit kicked out of you though.

ALT+PLS+RTN: Pure as a pane of ice. It's a gift.
