Nightmare Movie

While I was home visiting my parents we played a little game we called Nightmare Movie. In Nightmare Movie, the players create the worst movie they can think of. Here was my entry:

Plot: An adaptation of a John Grisham novel
Director: Mel Gibson
Leading Actor: Tom Cruise
Supporting Actor: Tom Hanks
Leading Actress: Melanie Griffith
Supporting Actress: Julia Roberts
Bit Players: Meg Ryan, Gene Hackman, Danny DeVito, and Rosie O’Donnell

Considering that we started playing this game on the fly, I thought I came up with a pretty good answer. Too bad my poor father thinks that John Grisham is the Great American Novelist of his generation. He also thinks Meg Ryan is cute. I felt a bit mean, but that’s what Nightmare Movie is all about. So what about you, what’s your nightmare movie?

I think that one pretty much sums it up, Sassy … heh heh.

Mine would probably be:
Bush! World Peacemaker!
Starring Arnie as George
A blacked up Sandra Bullock as Condi
A load of actors with English accents and beards to play all the "ter'rists"
And it would be a musical by Andrew Lloyd Webber.

Now it's my turn to go to bed feeling sick …

Yeah, I think I might have had Sandra Bullock in there too. She's horrible.

I hope you really aren't sick.

Not at all (except my mind); it was just the thought of the movie … Eurgh!

Oh, there are so many possibilities, I'll have to give this one some thought. I have to confess, though, I have a thing for Gene Hackman. Even the sound of his cranky old voice. I have the same weird thing for Richard Dryfuss--The Goodbye Girl makes me giddy.

Just think Mr Holland's Opus and the feeling will pass.

She just came out with what could be the greatest movie of all time.
