I was thinking about that 1980s James Bond movie where everybody's trying to get their hands on a Fabergé egg for some reason
And then I realized:
It's an Egg McGuffin.

Protect the mcguffin
Stall for reinforcements
Transport the mcguffin
Destroy the mcguffin
Entrap the enemies.

The one (1) good thing about crypto is that hard drives of crypto have fulfilled this mcguffin role
You, a philistine: Cell phones have ruined movies because easy communication makes misunderstandings implausible
Me, a man of taste: The extinction of bearer bonds has ruined movies because heists are now pointless

If your story features a plot driven by characters who just want breakfast, but you never actually explain what they eat at breakfast, this is known as an Egg McGuffin.

This was always so stupid LOL, people wanted so badly to be clever that they unlearned what a McGuffin was
Pulp Fiction is 30
My 90s students were full of theories about it like: ‘Marsellus has a bandage on the back of his neck because in some cultures the soul is taken out through it. That’s what’s in the briefcase.’
Ving Rhames: ‘I cut myself shaving.’

That we’ve had three live action GI Joe movies and none of them have done “the McGuffin breaks into three pieces that land in the arctic, the sea, and another land environment” seems so wasteful. Come on.

My dumbest D&D villain idea is a Gollum/Sauron hybrid where the halfling corrupted by the evil McGuffin successfully becomes an evil overlord.

LARA CROFT finds a LOST TOMB in the mountains.
She raids it, but in a vaguely non-colonislist way, cos DAMIEN BADDY wants the MCGUFFIN OF DEATH.
She dodges traps, fights some DINOSAURS and CURSED STATUES. Then she stops DAMIEN by shooting him with TWO GUNS. The MCGUFFIN is returned to its owners

Gonna take this opportunity to say that I can personally deliver no script for as little as 7 million, and I know some other writers who can do it for as little as five million.
