Richard Kimble Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 There are the jokes/puns: Every Little Crook & Nanny I Dismember Mama Even Hitler Had A Girlfriend (yes, this was a movie) "I'm Dreaming Of A Wide Isthmus" (episode of the Wackiest Ship In The Army TV series) The Roar Of The Greasepaint, The Smell Of The Crowd (Anthony Newley stage musical of the '60s) The Major And The Minor Violent Is The Word for Curly (Three Stooges short -- the reference is to the Gladys George melodrama Valiant Is The Word For Carrie) Then there's the poetic: Saturday Night And Sunday Morning Night And The City Rat Fink a Boo Boo (well I think it's poetry) I Was Born, But... (Ozu, 1932) And a title which IMHO combines a memorable pun with an appropriate reference to the action in the film: Ace In The Hole 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Gorman Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 SOMETIMES AUNT MARTHA DOES DREADFUL THINGS is a fun title. So is FERTILIZE THE BLASPHEMING BOMBSHELL from 1990 or '91. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Metairie Road Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 The Cars That Ate Paris - Great title, lousy movie. 'The quality of a movie is inversely proportional to the pomposity of its title' would seem to be a good rule of thumb here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
