Movie Mash: Create your own Movie!

A few weeks ago, a friend and I developed a new pub game, which we are hoping to spread to imbibing movie fans everywhere. The idea is that you take two movie titles that share a common word – we’ll allow a classic tv title if it’s worth it – to create a brand new movie. For example...


The Lost Boyz in the Hood.
A young man, despite the best efforts of his father, is lured into the vampire gang violence

Licence to Driving Miss Daisy
Two teenagers steal a car to get driving practice, unaware that an elderly woman is in the back seating, expecting to be chauffeured.

An Inconvenient Truth about Cats and Dogs
A glamorous politician is seen by the world to be preaching environmental awareness, but it’s really his shy, less attractive colleague writing the words behind the scenes!


Are you loving it? Here’s a few more...


Raging Bull Durham
The bloody and inspirational story of a terrific boxer ...and his love of baseball.

Remains of the Days of Thunder
The poignant story of a traditional stoic butler and his unspoken love for an arrogant racing car driver

Annie Hall, Get Your Gun
A high energy musical about a neurotic comedian tracing the history of his failed relationship with a cross-dressing sharp-shooter.

Blue Hawaii 5-0
Elvis plays a detective in Hawaii who’s a singer by night.

Notting Hills Have Eyes
A whimsical yet often hilarious look at what happens when an ordinary book shop owner falls in love mutant cannibalistic hillbilly

The Magnificent Seven years in Tibet
The epic tale of seven gunslingers and their struggle to find redemption and peace as Tibet is over taken by Mexican bandits

Field of Dreamgirls
A poor Midwestern farmer builds a theatre in his cornfield on the hope that Motown singers will appear.


And so on. Much hilarity ensues. Genuinely, I think this is how movie executives come up with ideas. Add your suggestions to the comments below so I can win the next round!!
