Awful movie titles

All in a day's work pointless timewasting on CaB. I knew I'd be silly to hotlink encase they died on me (or whatever it is when hotlinked pics go tits up), and thought seeing as I'm putting them on photobucket, I might as well resize them while I'm at it. (If you can guess which ones I sized up you win a prize!)

I lead a busy and exciting life.

Vantage Point but only by about 50px? I'm not sure about Bolt, it has been resized but looks too shit to have been done by a man who would make them all the same size in the first place.

The correct answers are 21, Bolt, and Lucky Number Slevin. So sadly you failed to beat the Eggheads and the prize money rolls over till next week.

The "Schindler's Fist" tag makes me wonder. Those pun porn titles: awful or great? I'm going with great. My favourite has to be Glad-he-ate-her. No idea if it's a real title, though.

I SERIOUSLY doubt there is a porn version of the Holocaust.

Similarly, Rambo IV is just Rambo. People (I have been guilty) forget that the first one is actually just called First Blood. Sly Stallone must have a giggle doing this kind of thing.

Well the second was called Rambo: First Blood Part II, which is nonsensical as anything. Calling the next two Rambo III and Rambo may have been confusing, but at least they realised there can only be one first blood.

Simultaneously awful and awesome.

I need to see this. It's from Kurt Wimmer and I thought Equilibrium was pretty awesome if inadvetantly rather stupid, and the Boz's debut Stone Cold was awesome and deliberately (I presume) stupid.

Shoulders?-Stomach!

He's really a very good cop, you know.

The 'two people standing back to back holding guns vertically' poster pose seems to have fallen out of fashion in recent years. This was everywhere in the early 90s. I'm sure there was one when one had a gun and another had a hairdryer, although I'm fucked if I remember what that was.

Was it this, by any chance?

I remember that and thinking, why in fuck is cop (who's clearly meant to be the straight man, not the wacky one with the hairdryer) holding a gun to his head. Surely it would make more sense if he was pointing a gun/hairdryer at the camera?

Re: Partners. That must have been it, but I have a false memory of them standing in the more conventional Gibson/Glover back-to-back with guns aloft stance.

Isn't it obvious? He's stressed out and uptight, his partner is fun-loving and gay. Wacky hi-jinks ensue.

Yeah, but there's only one of him.

I had no idea about the plot. Sounds a riot. From Wikipedia:

QuoteAfter a series of murders in the Los Angeles gay community, heterosexual police sergeant Benson (O'Neal) is assigned to the case. He is ordered to go undercover as half of a gay couple. The other half of the couple is Officer Kerwin (Hurt), a records clerk who everyone in the department knows is gay although he thinks he's closeted.

I had no idea either, but O'Neal's expression says it all. The plot sounds like a shit hybrid of Cruising and The Odd Couple.

I've actually seen this one. The scar-faced Nazi chick is smokin'.

That's a great title! But I guarantee that the actual movie won't stand up against the version I'm picturing in my mind.

I know. Most of the time it's only the name that's the 'connection' to the orginal film anyway. I'm guessing Schindler in this version delivers pizza or repairs cable.
