So for example, Star Wars could be: Annoying kid makes new friends then blows up space station. Describe one, then leave one for the next guy. What was The Shining about?

Cabin fever is murder. I've been meaning to see The Departed-- what's that all about?

Good cop, bad cop. Do Wild Things --

Hey, boobs and penis... and some nudity, too! Speaking of which, give me some Eyes Wide Shut.

Guy takes his wife's fantasizing way too seriously and freaks out. What the hell was No Country For Old Men about?

The Second Spitter Apr 14 2013 06:42 AM Re: One Sentence Summaries - Movie Version

A "one day left 'til retirement"-cop and a batshit crazy mofo. Tell me about Brazil

A rogue air conditioning repairman upsets the bureaucracy. How about Lincoln?

Cocaine and life in the mafia do take their toll, but "Layla" makes a magnificent soundtrack for a corpse-discovery travelogue. My tween niece recommended Twilight to me-- what's the deal with that?

OMG, Like, Edward might be a monster but he's the love of my life and i don't care and if he doesn't prove he loves me back by saving me from the worser monsters I'll just die! You can break the first rule and talk about Fight Club

If you're crazy enough you can think you look like Brad Pitt and score yourself Helena Bonham Carter. Never saw Titanic. What was the BFD with that?

"The film about the ship sunk in 1912 by Israel" - per General Aladeen I wanna see 2001: A Space Odyssey, gimme the low-down.

A big black rock talks some chimps into going into space and becoming space babies. PINK FLOYD'S THE WALL... name that tune!

Mets – Willets Point Apr 15 2013 11:41 AM Re: One Sentence Summaries - Movie Version

Uneducated Bob Geldof shaves his eyebrows in front of flickering fascist imagery. What's all this about Toy Story?

Edgy MD Apr 16 2013 08:13 AM Re: One Sentence Summaries - Movie Version

Old-school and new-school action heroes make a snappy pair of wisecracking buddies as they team up against a sadistic villain and stand for the power of diversity in community in the face of change. Somebody told me to see Little Shop of Horrors. What's that about?

Somebody told me to see Little Shop of Horrors. What's that about? Campy musical comedy about a carnivorous plant. What about Les Miserables (the new musical)? Later

A frontal lobotomy through falsetto about two vagabonds with hearts of gold mercilessly pursued by the owner of the South Sydney Rabbitohs. What can you tell me about Rocky III?

John Cougar Lunchbucket Apr 16 2013 08:48 AM Re: One Sentence Summaries - Movie Version

Civilized palooka is insulted, devolves. Rocky IV?

Edgy MD Apr 16 2013 08:53 AM Re: One Sentence Summaries - Movie Version

Pugilist with an eighth-grade education brokers detente between nuclear superpowers. Rocky V?

The Second Spitter Apr 16 2013 08:54 AM Re: One Sentence Summaries - Movie Version

Streetfight with somebody who may or may not have AIDS. Rocky Balboa?

MFS62 Apr 16 2013 08:57 AM Re: One Sentence Summaries - Movie Version

Civilized palooka is insulted, devolves. Rocky IV? A Russian boxer uses PEDs, but (spoiler alert) traditional training methods prevail. My own take on Les Mis: Convicted felon escapes jail, meets hooker, falls in love and runs from the law. Tell us about Jurassic Park. (No, I don't mean a possible Rocky VII.) Later

Tell us about Jurassic Park. In his hubris, a mad scientist offends the laws of nature, then he and his grandkids fly off scot-free after his employees have been eaten by dinosaurs. RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK?

Edgy MD Apr 16 2013 09:37 AM Re: One Sentence Summaries - Movie Version

There was a whistle on the play. Rocky Balboa was up.

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Apr 16 2013 11:23 AM Re: One Sentence Summaries - Movie Version

That old Italian dude can still fight, even though he's apparently melting. This Raiders of the Lost Ark, though. Sounds interesting. What's that?

Professor on sabbatical travels with ex-girlfriend to the Middle East, recovers stolen luggage. What's up with Babe? Is it the same as The Babe, like Dangerous Liaisons and Valmont?

Frayed Knot Apr 16 2013 09:31 PM Re: One Sentence Summaries - Movie Version

Three dusty men head for the mountains looking for gold but wind up with only more dust. So what was the deal with LAWRENCE OF ARABIA?

Centerfield Apr 17 2013 08:40 AM Re: One Sentence Summaries - Movie Version

British guy runs around with Arabs in the desert, somewhere near Tatooine I think, since he runs into a younger Ben Kenobi. Tell me about Tootsie.

Fucking with the wrong marine and an inability to fathom the truth. Dune , i've never seen it (for real). Tell me about it.
