So, I'm writing this movie, and -- this is a really dumb question -- you know how in every movie and book, the butler always calls their master, "Master" or "Master lastnamehere"?

Does anyone know if they actually do that in real life? The movie takes place nowadays.

I know that in movies and books, that's how it goes, but I don't want to included if it's not true. It seems so overused, I don't know.

It's practically an insignifigant detail, but I strive on insignifigant details, haha.

Any help?

yee.. STHU n movv dizz...

No. It doesn't happen.

doesn't Sir suffice? master might be a bit overboard if we're talking about current times, btw is the location fictional? if it's not then the location could have a certain degree of impact as well possibly?

For a recent movie, I'd go with 'Sir' as suggested by Doink. But then again, it depends on the location. More info would be nice.

lol @ calling her doink. that's sounds funny for some reason.

Yeah, I think it's "sir", unless you're making another Batman sequel with "Master Bruce" in it.

Alright, thanks for the help!

You can close this topic now :)

Thanks again!

do you really expect people to stop posting?

tell me more about your movie. it sounds interesting. as far as "master" or "sir" being said in reality? i'm leaning toward the "sir". unless the indiviual or indiviuals that lived in the house we're really rich or just stuck up and thought they owned everybody.

Okey doke!
