I Don't Scare (1956)
7/10
high maintenance Olive
30 August 2021
Popeye beats Bluto to asking Olive Oyl out on a date. It's Thursday the 12th. Bluto intends to sabotage their date. He rips out the page from the calendar and turns it to Friday the 13th. Being superstitious, Olive is reluctant to go out. Popeye can't convince her otherwise and Bluto continues to sabotage him. Eventually, Bluto shows Olive that it really is the 12th and takes her out on a date himself. Popeye decides to fight back.

This is a high maintenance Olive and I don't mind that. There is a difference between high maintenance and simply being the worst. The difference being her level of love towards Popeye. Does she even care about him? High maintenance can be funny if she loves him. The lack of love is a big gigantic problem and that's why she's the worst sometimes. This is the good side of that line.
