Guess the movie based on the unflattering description

Just a little bit of fun for those of us online during the holiday.

Feel free to add your own.

  1. A reclusive industialist with his own twisted sense of right and wrong tortures and mutilates small children in his secretive facility while his unpaid, illegal immigrant workers mock them for their alleged moral failings.

  2. A man betrays his employer, his country, and his species so that he can become a robot and have sex with an alien.

  3. A man and his friends travel cross-country to return an unwanted piece of jewelry.

  4. An orphan embezzles millions of dollars from his employer in order to fund a home improvement project and a line of non-lethal personal armaments in order to engage in a terrorist campaign against respected members of the community.

  5. A wealthy, eccentric Serbian travels to England looking for love.

Only 3 & 4 baffle me. 1 & 2 are too obvious. 5 - DRACULA

[spoiler]#2 is Avatar.

#4 is Batman.[/spoiler]

Not sure on the other ones.

3 is Lord of the Rings

1) Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

  1. A harried business owner attempts to acquire financing for his latest venture while learning how to parent three orphans.

are we certain with 2? he doesn’t become a robot.

I was expecting that to take longer than 20 minutes. :stuck_out_tongue:

6: Was there a Ducktales movie, perhaps?

Here’s a few more;

  1. A former government employee invites some backpackers to enjoy free cosmestic surgery.

  2. A girl finds herself having to choose between an attractive man who stands up for her, and a man whose complexion isn’t as nice, but enjoys talking about her emotions.

  3. Minimum wage workers spend their down-time bullshitting while one of them works out some relationship problems.

  4. A young boy, abandoned by his parents and ignored by law enforcement, is forced to rely only on his wits to protect himself from vicious criminals.

  5. An NYPD detective uncovers corruption and mismanagement in the city’s waste management and urban welfare system.

7) Human Centipede
9) Clerks
10) Home Alone

6) No, not ducktales but it is animated.

[SPOILER]7) Texas Chainsaw massacre?

  1. Beauty and the beast?

  2. Home alone?[/SPOILER]

Despicable me

Inner Stickler was correct on 7, 9, and 10.

Yes.

Bumping and adding a few more;

  1. A man considers giving up the family business, but his hand is forced after a rival firm attempts a hostile takeover.

  2. A man with a fastidious dedication to cleanliness commits identity theft in order to land a better job.

  3. When the holiday weekend is threatened by an international incident, the President must call on an unwed father and a cable TV technician to save the day.

Clarification from the OP on #2? He was a clone of sorts, not a robot.

#15 is

The Godfather

13 Dune
14. Kill Bill

  1. A man’s inability to handle his hallucination leads to the death of his family and the collapse of his country.
