During a horribly blatant thread hijack here we’ve identified a new pastime. ID the movie from the bad title.

Here are some examples:

L.A. Water Rights = Chinatown
Rebel Space Terrorists Destroy Huge Military Base = Star Wars
The Kayser Soze Story = Usual Suspects
Hey! That Janitor’s a Genius! = Good Will Hunting

Anybody game? Try these.

The Terrible Temblor
Ben and his Fiancee’s Mom
Having Fun While We Clean Your Vehicle
Unstoppable Robot Assassin from the Future
Electrocuting an Angel
Magic Orphan Boy!
Sharon Stone Shows Her Goodies!
