This thread makes Threadspotting on Monday, not Friday night when I first started it and was bored. Okay, let’s play catch up:
I don’t know The Party, but here goes. A taxi driver becomes a drug smuggler for a notorious Cuban mob boss. As he is chased by his two most frequent customers, he hides in a mansion where he secretly replaces the sugar with his own “taster’s choice” powder, leading a nanny to have to take her charges to the ER after they OD while making the medicine go down.
Oh, I like this one. Four loveable moptop rockers discover that a murder of a famous playwright in a bar wasn’t really a murder, because he was already dead. Now that they know his secret, he hunts them down.
Willy Wonka, you mean, not Charlie Chaplin?
A man of peace finds himself hunting down a black Civil War soldier in a strange, wondrous land where sharks swim in seas of Chocolate.
Sheesh, eight films? I’ll do three:
A young FBI recruit chases four droogs in the wild and wooly world of the dinosaurs, while an apprentice wreaks all kinds of havoc with his master’s pinball machine. Okay, I lied, it was four.
Bonus points? That’s the easiest one!
A space alien visits a magical genie who he asks to make him BIG. He’s so grown up, though, he’s sent off to Vietnam and has to dress in drag so he won’t have to fight.
Wait, Robin Williams wasn’t in Big. But, I like these themes: keep them coming.
A strange family and their dog is hunted by a cannibalistic serial killer.
Already done Willy Wonka, but the other three are easy:
A man’s life is lived in reverse, from death to college, as he lives it not once, but three times, while he faces important decisions that determine not how the story ends, but how it begins. (I actually like this one.)
Hmm, Disney and Kubrick. I can dig it. A young Arabian pauper lion finds himself in bootcamp. After a rambunctious dinner party (“Be Our Guest!”), the old, head,lion dies, and the pauper finds himself to be the new Lion King. Then, he can seduce the lovely, curvy mermaid he meets.
Okay, new rules:
No more than four movies, please.
Don’t name a movie that I haven’t seen.
Don’t name a movie that someone else has already suggested.
Theme films (like Robin Williams or the second sequel ones) are good.
Thanks!
[sub]Apologies in advance if the coding is screwed. I don’t have time to preview.[/sub]

Oops, sorry. No, there’s no list, I’ll just let you know what I have and haven’t seen. As for your post:
Hmm, I’ve seen Eraserhead, but I can honestly say I don’t remember the plot.
A burned out rock star tries to drink himself to death in medieval Scotland. A bumbling family keeps him alive, however.
And, Zebra: no cheating. Name the movies.
