Erkki Posted February 26, 2017 Another fun list, semi-obscure movies which have the same titles as more famous movies https://letterboxd.com/sternwise/list/wrong-fucking-movie/ I don't know why, but for some reason I find these hilarious. It's not like you'd actually start watching the wrong one by mistake, though... I tried to play a joke on people by talking about the 2011 movie "The Dark Knight", but it didn't turn out as funny as I hoped because nobody understood of course. Another favourite is the 1955 "The Fast and the Furious". Well, those are the too I've seen, plus the 1998 Avengers, but that's not very obscure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That was me! I ruined that joke! Good list, although with some of these one might be relieved to be the wrong movie... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheLastBaron Posted February 26, 2017 Excellent list, this basically came up yesterday when I was having a conversation with someone and they brought up Crash and I went along with it, but pretended I thought they were talking about the Cronenberg Crash with James Spader and Holly Hunter.

Cordeos Posted February 26, 2017 Ever seen Turkish Star Wars AKA The Man Who Saved The World? Its a Turkish film from an era where western movies were not allowed into the country. It uses clips from Star Wars and bits of the Indiana Jones soundtrack. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dünyayı_Kurtaran_Adam Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
twmac Posted February 27, 2017 There is a comic strip where, I think, Ms. Marvel complains about having accidentally rented The Room instead of Room. This happened to me recently when my partner borrowed The Room from the internet instead of Room. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dium Posted February 27, 2017 I think the only real way this joke plays is if you host a screening. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cordeos Posted February 27, 2017 Was this thread a prediction of the Oscar's giving the award to the wrong fucking movie? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
