I was listening to BBC Radio's "I'm Sorry I haven't a Clue" last night. They had a section in which they renamed various TV shows, movies and musicals on the premise that the BBC was producing them but were constrained by a very tight budget, hence cost-cutting was necessary - even in the titles.
For example:
"Charlie and the Chocolate"
"Breakfast at Tiffany's Mum's House"
"A Dalmatian"
The challenge, come up with your own... ;-Þ
The Beatles in "Yellow Dinghy"
"Harry Potter and the Pebble"
"Hitch-hiker's Guide to the Film Studio Parking Lot." |
