I think it’s a spin on there are only 7 stories. But Google isn’t helpful at the moment. I think it might be Youtuber theorist kinda thing and one of the movies might be The Wizard of Oz

      Well they say comedy = tragedy + time, so if that’s the case, then there is really only one movie.

    Is this a variation on “there are only 2 stories: a person goes on a long journey, and a stranger comes to town.” Some would argue those are two sides of the same story (digressions about this are the backbone of Lemony Snicket’s Poison for Breakfast, an excellent light read).
