This came up in the 30-words-or-less thread but apparently got lost, so I thought I would start again. Summarize/describe a movie (in a humorous fashion if you like)in a Haiku (5-7-5 syllables) Please try not to spoil without warning too.

Captain Williard hunts
For a rogue, U.S. Colonel
Man, Brando is fat
Apocalypse Now

Man, that film was long
But Cruise saying cunt was cool
What's up with the frogs?
Magnolia

Leo and a boat
Millions of teenage girls
Help topple Star Wars
Titanic

Thanks for doing this. I was thinking about breaking it out into its own thread as I saw the spoiler debate swamping the thread. Here are the few I created earlier

The Matrix
Looking for "The One?"
He is Mr. Anderson
Neo to his friends

The Hunt for Red October
Does the sub captain
Want a war or to defect?
Ryan seems to know

LOTR: Fellowship of the Ring
Gandalf and Balrog
Fell far and long; Balrog died
Gandalf just turned white

The One Ring must be
Thrown into Mt. doom by whom?
A Hobbit, of course!
