Bad double-features or mini-festivals#1

Posted: 12/30/13 at 6:27am

A silly game, but why not? I was joking with a friend last night about movies that should probably never be paired together, because the titles just don't work without a whole bunch of awkward going on.

Like ...

"Scent of a Woman" and "A Fish Called Wanda"

Or a mini-festival with "8 1/2," "9," "9 1/2 Weeks," and "10."

Any others come to mind?

How about "Blue Velvet," "Purple Rain," "Red Sonja," "Yellow Submarine," "Grey Gardens," and "White Nights."

EDIT:

"Sixteen Candles," "Twelve Monkees," "Three Kings," "Two Women," "Four Weddings and a Funeral," and "Thirteen Ghosts."

With a nod to Mr. Sondheim (I think a Broadway-themed version of the game might be fun, BTW):

Apocalypse Now
28 Weeks Later
Too Much, Too Soon.

(I confess to asking IMDb for a "soon" option--I couldn't think of one. Rather than go with the impossibly tawdry-looking "Coming Soon" ('Coming'--get it??? Tee-hee....) I went with the obscure but high(er) brow 'Too Much Too Soon'. I confess to never having heard of it before this morning. I hope that doesn't disqualify me from the Game.)

FRANCES and A HOLE IN THE HEAD.

"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.” ~ Muhammad Ali

Hitchcock's Marnie and Secretary with Maggie Gyllenhaal.

"The gods who nurse this universe think little of mortals' cares. They sit in crowds on exclusive clouds and laugh at our love affairs. I might have had a real romance if they'd given me a chance. I loved him, but he didn't love me. I wanted him, but he didn't want me. Then the gods had a spree and indulged in another whim. Now he loves me, but I don't love him." - Cole Porter
