close enough…“She lied and cracked my stein” Ordinary germs and cars = Plain Strains and Automobiles? New Year’s Eve party dresses for gamblers = Year End Clothing in Las Vegas? The others are killing me…I Think I’ve got the movie for Woody Allen, but I can’t come up with an appropriate rhyme… I’ll throw it out in case others can… The dirty laundromat I’m thinking rhymes with Mighty Aphrodite, and contains “Untidy”…The Hoffman movie I’m at a complete loss for. Shaky Jake (If this posts twice, sorry - I had sudden inspitation on the Vegas one, and hit stop) ---

Footsie = Dustin Hoffman movie ---

I’m thinking of a movie about a gentile all covered with blood, and it rhymes with a recent children’s movie. ---

2 for Shaky Jake, 1 for pugluvr, and I thought Year-End Clothing in Las Vegas was gonna be a tough one. The Woody Allen movie is not Mighty Aphrodite. ---

I’m thinking about a movie loosely based on a fable that rhymes with a Harrison Ford movie already spoofed. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Robot Arm \* > The Woody Allen movie is not Mighty Aphrodite. Good, because I was gonna scream if it was something like “Untidy Wash-All-Nighty”…which, on the other hand, is worth a chuckle. Is it something along the lines of “Grimy Mister Cleaners”? Shaky Jake Oh, my pathetic first effort was “The Pan Who Could Be Ming” (The Man Who Would Be King - great flick if you’ve never seen it) Shaky Jake ---

I was thinking of Grime Amidst the Cleaners, but you’re close enough. Is anybody still working on the floating duplex/Kubrick one, that’s my favorite so far but it could be pretty tricky. ---

While I await Robot arms reply, I’ll throw out… A movie about toilet trainint that rhymes with a _steamy_ Lawrence Kasdan _film noir_ from the early 80’s. Not too tough, but I got a giggle out of thinking it up. Shaky Jake ---

Started, set it aside, never went back to it…Hint? I was trying to work with “Docked” and Dr Strangelove, or A Clockwork Orange… Tricky indeed. Shaky Jake You know, if this keeps up, I’ll show up on Satan’s radar screen soon, although my MSPIMS/IMHO:GD/GQ ratio may not be high enough. 🙂 ---

Well, I was thinking “A Place on the Sea”, but damn well done. And of course, nothing rhymes with A Clockwork Orange. ---

I’m thinking of a movie about an animal wrapped in a substance and it rhymes with a movie about a fantasy land. ---

I’m thinking about a movie about making next-year exhibitionists out of chaste people, rhyming with that Kubrick sci-fi classic. ---

Is anyone working on mine from page 1? 😉 I’m (also) thinking of a movie about a deluded character from the _Star Wars_ trilogy that rhymes with a recent Kubrick film. ---

dogsbody, I’ve been thinking of your original question, but it’s a stumper. Now your second one is a stumper, too. There’s only one recent Kubrick movie, and I can’t think of a single SW character that rhymes with it. However, I did keep the sound turned off a lot during Phantom Menace. ---
