Movie posters that are just one letter off.
"The Park Knight" looks like a potentially fascinating movie.

If they did that with the movie "W" they could eliminate the film altogether. But, hey, that would be an improvement.

Ten hours spent painstakingly photoshopping a poster. Ten seconds spent thinking up the joke.

Due to slow loading time, I bailed before I saw them all. That said, I was disappointed to not have seen "Must Love Dongs" as the first entry.

My favorite part of the rules: You may want to include the name of the original movie in your comments if you think voters will have trouble identifying it.
If you need to do that, haven't you pretty much failed already?

These can pretty much come from the same script as porn-movie names, yes?

I consider myself an aficionado of puns, yet I grimaced at about half of the entries.
"It's a Wonderful Lime" "No Country for Old Hen" "Sweeney Toad" "Gone With the Wino"... worked for me.
"Shaving Private Ryan"... well, I guess you couldn't have had the competition without that one, but did we really need two versions of "Don't Mess With the Lohan"?

"Citizen Kang"
"The Big Sheep"
"Stag Wars"
"Finding Nero"

Yeah, alright, so some of those were pretty bad, but a lot of the ones from moonmilk's link are making me giggle with abandon.

Did somebody do Codfather? Please tell me somebody did Codfather. You know, because if you do that, instead of Brando, you can just have a fish sitting there, in a tux. It's so easy. All the girls will want to sleep with you.
