Not always safe for work either. Some are entertaining, though.
I'm not sure when the list was originally published. Perhaps you can add your own here.

These are great! Here would be my entry for Aliens:
Ripley kicks alien butt - again
But I thought it would be even easier to write 5 word slogans for bad films like Star Trek III: The Search For Spock:
Spock resurrected - nothing else happens |

Be better and more entertaining if it was done more like the choose one or the other threads......someone could list a movie and then someone would come up with a clever 5 word caption and then list another movie for the next person.....

Probably too hard & too much work but it would be neat to add a 110x160 poster, too. |
