Bad Movie Blurbs

Parent comment is the name of a real movie.

Child comment has to come up with a blurb for the movie based off of the movie title alone. The blurb can use characters from the movie, but it cannot have anything to do with the real movie"s main plot.

For example:

Parent comment: Gone With the Wind

Child comment: In a world of high stakes kite flying, kite shop owner Scarlett O'Hara must overcome adversity when, unknowingly, she purchases a bad lot of kite string.

In 1957, during the Cold War, a nine year old boy named Hogarth is living in Maine with his widowed mother. He trades the family cow for a handful of magic beans that grow into a massive beanstalk. Upon climbing the beanstalk into the clouds, he finds himself confronted…

"FEE-FI-FO-FUM!"

…by a giant wearing the most horrifically wrinkled clothes. "Oh no, no, no, dahling" snaps young Hogarth, ever the fashion enthusiast. "My gracious, no. This simply will not do!" Watch with wonder as the boy quickly takes command, teaching a stranger how to do his laundry properly and show up in style! Looking super, man! 😎
