Best Boy, the movie term for a senior electrician, is wrong on so many levels. I think it ought to be re-named "achieving individual."
A few months ago or so I did a restaurant review video with my brother. I closed it with credits including BEST BOY (which was credited to me, simply because I was the best of the two of us IMHO). Also attributed GRIP to Kung Fu. And I changed the title of COLORIST to COLORS, so I could credit it to Robert Duvall and Sean Penn. Silly.. I also closed it to POLICE SQUAD/NAKED GUN music and we froze in place to it (as they do in the tv series-- a little too well, as it looked exactly like freeze-frame).

When I did my movie interview a few weeks back, I was referred to not as the best boy but as "the dumb ass who won't stop looking at the camera" :buggedout: :wink:

You were the worst boy.
What else would you call it? You can't use 'Best Man' because that's already taken by wedding jargon!
^How about "Adequate Human"?
