Here's ANOTHER new game (man, we spoil you some times); somewhat related to the Cross-quotes game, and blatantly stolen from another forum, who no doubt stole it from somewhere else. After all, there are no original ideas, right?
The way this game is played is thus; take two films, merge their title flawlessly into one single title, and write a TV Guide type blurb for the newly created Hybrid film. Examples below, I've spoiler texted the two films I'm merging underneath in case it wasn't obvious what they are:
How To Make An American Psycho
American Psycho & How To Make An American Quilt
Winona Rider and Christian Bale star in this delightful coming-of-age drama as Winona Rider contemplates life, marriage, and her uncontrollable desire to stab people and play with their blood. Rated R.
Battlefield Earth Girls Are Easy
Battlefield Earth and Earth Girls Are Easy
Unusual comedy starring Brendan Fraser and John Travolta; three furry aliens land on the planet Earth where hillarity ensues as they persue every woman they can see while trying to avoid being captured and killed by the evil dominant race of Psychlos. Repellently bad viewing.
National Lampoons Animal Farm
Animal Farm and National Lampoons Animal House
Unorthodox re-interpretation of George Orwells classic as the farm creatures throw off their human masters, and stock up on beer kegs and strippers before throwing a party they'll never forget. Rated R for nudity and biting political commentary.
PCU-571
U-571 & PCU
Zany comedy; when a college fraternity steals a U boat during World War II as a prank, they're horrified to discover it contains the Enigma device that could turn the tide of the war; this collection of misfits must pilot the boat back to safe waters avoid not only the German Navy, but the tyrannical Dean of the school. Rated PG-13 for idiocy and historical inaccuracy.
K-9:The Widowmaker
K-9 & K-19:The Widowmaker
Convoluted comedy action drama; Cop James Belushi is teamed with his newest partner, a police dog, as the two of them board a russian nuclear submarine on the hunt for drug smugglers. When the submarine suffers a nuclear accident under the arctic, some tough choices have to be made. Rated PG-13.
I'll have more and more and more of these. Its just too much fun.

Me again:
Jet Li's The One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest
Jet Li stars a the martial arts action hero not only fighting injustices and terrible conditions in the mental instutions of the 60's, but also his evil clone from another dimension in this martial arts action drama. Rated C for confusing.
The Thin Red Sonya
Artistic war film depicts the horrors of the pacific campaign in world war two through the eyes of barbarian princess Sonya, who along with her companions must struggle to free Guam from its evil wizard tyrant. Rated R for Explosions, Fantasy Swordplay and Ahnald.
Dude, Where's My Big Fat Greek Wedding?
Disturbing comedy; Ashton Kutcher and Sean William Scott wake from a night of drunken excess to find that they are both now married to the same big fat Greek man. They must reconstruct the events of the following evening while dealing with the hillarious clash of cultures their new marriage causes. Rated X for truly disturbing mental imagery.
Things to Do in Denver When You're Down And Out In Beverly Hills
Utterly nonsensical geographic-based comedy/tragedy starring Nick Nolte and Andy Garcia. Garcia works hard to save his friend Nolte from the contract put on his head by Christopher Walken, while Nolte moves in with an affluent Beverly Hills family. Flawed in many ways.
License to Mulholland Dr.
We really don't have a clue what this film is about, sorry. The chicks in it are hot, but thats it. Rated X for hot chick on hot chick action and too much weird stuff for one person to handle.

I'll be back, just you wait and see.

Soylent Green Card
Whacky but disturbing comedy; Gerard Depadieu masquerades being married to an american friend in order to allow him to take a lucrative job at the Soylent Green corporation...but his hillarious deceptive antics soon lead to him discovering a sinister secret. Rating R for gratuitous french people.
Star Wars: The Phantom of the Opera
Radically improved remake of the star wars prequel; Lonely Anakin Skywalker haunts the basement of Jabba's palace writing infectious and haunting songs, and becomes obsessed with new slave girl singer Amidala...but with the arrival of the sinister Darth Maul, Anakin and Amidala's relationship comes under threat - can Amidala face the truth that Anakin is...a whiny little child? Rated I for Improved on the original.
Guess Who's Coming To America?
Heartwarming comedy about racial tolerance, starring Spencer Tracey and Eddie Murphy. Bigotted father Tracy is appalled to learn his daughter is dating a colour man; but this isn't just any african-american; this is a genuine african prince. When Tracey and Murphy collide, comedy is sure to follow. Rated L for lame.
- Rich
More to come

This isn't a game so much as a creative writing assignment...

Ok, here are some that I could come up with...
The Lost Boys Don't Cry: A moving film about transsexual vampires.
The Empire Strikes Back To The Future: The Rebels mission is in danger, until Luke finds and old Delorian in the snowbanks of Hoth. Wacky Misadventures ensue.
Best In Showgirls: Mockumentary of a girl who goes out to realize her dream...of being a Dog Show hostess!
Requiem For A Dreamcatcher: A dramatic sci-fi piece, where aliens lose themselves among drugs, sex, and s*** weasels. Viewer Discretion is advised.

Last batch for tonight.
The Godfather of the Bride
Crime related Comedy/Drama with Al Pacino and Steve Martin. Martin's crime empire is threatened by outside forces just as his son (Pacino) returns from the war; to make matters worse, as well as having to fight a vicious turf war, Martin has an even bigger battle ahead of him - his daughters wedding. Hillarious chaos and brutal violence come face to face in this badly thought through film.
White Hunter, Braveheart
Set against a background of Aparthied and somehow also the Scottish Rebellion against the crown, this film sees Ben Kingsley as a corrupt hunter brought in to hunt the most dangerous game of all...Scortish rebel rouser William Wallace. Who will prevail? The 1980's hunter, or the 1060's woad wearing barbarian? Rated Q for total lack of plausability.
RoboCopLand
In Detroit of the future, the local Sherriff is involved in a terrible accident, and reconstructed as a robotic law enforcement officer with juristicion over a community of retired cops. But soon evidence of a darker conspiracy begins to show up in RoboCop's community. Staring Peter Weller and Harvey Keitel. Rated L for Laughable. Contains scenes of oil leakage and repeated shotgun pumping.
The Breakfast Fight Club
Six adolescent teens spend their saturday detentions finding themselves through brutal barefisted combat. But as the craze catches on, can Emilio Esteves shake himself away from Brad Pitts evil influence and convince Molly Ringwald to go 'steady' with him? A must see. Rated R for moment of extreme violence, and terrible makeovers.
Right, enough silliness for one day. More tomorrow!

Oddly enough, I was gonna do "The Godfather Of The Bride" but then I realized I hadn't seen Father of the Bride, so I bailed on that one (I didn't think it would be fair.)

Secondhand Lion King: A coming-of-age film featuring Haley Joel Osment, Michael Caine, Robert Duvall; and the voices of Jonathan Taylor Thomas, James Earl Jones, and Nathan Lane. Young Simba and pre-pubescent Walter meet in an emotional flee from their respective family struggles to find themselves among their animal friends and eccentric uncles. Rated PG.

To make matters worse, Umbrella Inc. has decided to capitalize on the appearance of this evil. Now Ash, his trusty boomstick, and new partner, Jill Valentine, must fight their way out of the city. The King has returned. Rated R.

I feel kind of guilty for only coming up with one.
Jakob the Liar Liar
An exceptionally rubber-faced Robin Williams stars in this hilarious and extremely depressing story about life in Nazi-occupied Poland.
After accidentally overhearing a radio broadcast detailing Soviet successes against Nazi forces, Jewish shopkeeper Jakob, played by Williams, decides to fabricate positive reports he alleges to be receiving over a secret radio, and so boost the morale of his fellow ghetto residents.
However, a crimp is thrown into Jakob's plan when his son, fed up with the constant lying, uses a birthday wish to force Jakob to tell the truth for a full day! Side-splitting laughs and gut-wrenching pathos fly fast and furious in this emotional rollercoaster of a film. Rated S for Severe Cognitive Dissonance.
