Don't you mean McGuffin? Or are you just hungry?

You know that one too/Mod
McMuffins are nasty if you have to buy breakfast go to a Cracker Barrel.

A McMuffin (sometimes tastey breakfast sandwich) is a plot device that motivates the characters or advances the story, but the details of which are of little or no importance otherwise.
The element that distinguishes a McMuffin from other types of plot devices is that it is not important what the object specifically is. Anything that serves as a motivation will do. The McMuffin might even be ambiguous. Its importance is accepted by the story's characters, but it does not actually have any effect on the story. It can be generic or left open to interpretation.
The McMuffin is common in films, especially thrillers. Commonly, though not always, the McMuffin is the central focus of the film in the first act, and later declines in importance as the struggles and motivations of characters play out. Sometimes the McMuffin is all but forgotten by the end of the film.
The McMuffin is also a popular breakfast sandwich that can be found at McDonalds. These sandwiches can also be served in a meal that includes coffee and a hash brown.

Are we all supposed to have Watchmen avatars now?
Maybe people having Watchmen avatars can be the new McMuffin.

I know Hitchcock used McGuffins a lot.
The biggest one that I remember from modern movies is the suitcase in Pulp Fiction.

You are right! That is a perfect example of a McMuffin. They also had Big Kahoona burgers in that movie too.

Mmmm, McMuffin with cheese.
Not if you never change your avatar.
I'll think about it. Watchmen is the new Joker.

You caught me on that one. Though I didn't succumb to Joker Avatar-itis.

"Mmmmmm, that IS a tasty burger!"
A McMuffin was blown up in the movie Independence Day, but it occurred off-screen.
