It’s a common tagline in movie promotions. They’ll say the current movie they’re promoting is “from the people that brought you…” and then list some popular or prestigious past movie that somebody in the current movie worked on.
21 & Over: From the writers of The Hangover Oblivion: From the director of Tron: Legacy and the producer of Rise of the Planet of the Apes After Earth: From the director of Unbreakable The Lone Ranger: From the producer of Pirates of the Caribbean
So the game here is to reverse it. Take a good or popular or critically acclaimed movie and give it a tagline from a credit that one of the filmmakers would like to forget. Or is just jarring from the image of the current movie.
The only rules are it has to be someone prominent in the movie - no picking out minor co-stars or crew members. And it has to be a movie that had already been made - no making fun of The Sixth Sense by pointing out the same guy also directed The Last Airbender.
To start:
Iron Man 3: From the producer of Elektra Life of Pi: From the director of Hulk Lincoln: From the producers of *batteries not included and Innerspace World War Z: From the star of The Mexican Zero Dark Thirty: From the writer and director of Blue Steel
I can’t find it now, but a Facebook friend posted a photo of a local theater sign that said… MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING
From the writer of four episodes of Roseanne
(Said friend is a poster here as well, if she sees this, maybe she’ll post it here for us. It was pretty funny).
Maybe I should have made that Titanic, the newest great oceanic epic from the maker of Pirhana 2! The Hurt Locker, from the director of Blue Steel and Near Dark.
Gosford Park, from the genius who gave us O.C. and Stiggs.
