    This is probably meant more-so for the Film forum but I thought it be more fun here with more people.

    The idea is to use a movie title and pretend it's for a completely different movie.

    My Example:

    The Terminator

    A heart-warming quirky indie drama about a lonely insect exterminator (Steve Buscemi) with a hidden passion for knitting. Faced with social problems and an unsuccessful love-life he travels across America to compete in the New Orleans knitting contest, and to find himself. Along the way he meets many strange characters including a spotty teenager played by Will Smith who tags along with him to find the world's biggest piece of popcorn seed.
