Good call! Very good idea!Doctorossi said:How 'bout Francis Joins the WACS (Donald O'Connor) and I Was a Male War Bride (Cary Grant)?
Sounds like they're just going for marquee title puns. Like WITH SIX YOU GET EGGROLL and CHEAPER BY THE DOZEN, or KEN RUSSELL'S UNCUT BOYFRIEND at the Castro.PODER said:As I recall, this was also a Mary Ann Madden contest in New York Magazine many many years ago. The ones I still recall:
1) THE TEN COMMANDMENTS and WITH SIX YOU GET EGGROLL
2) CALL ME MADAM, CALL ME MISTER and DECISION AT DAWN
3) GUESS WHO'S COMING TO DINNER and THE RUSSIANS ARE COMING! THE RUSSIANS ARE COMING!
Coming Next Week: FIFTY MILLION FRENCHMEN
and MY ALL-TIME FAVORITE ...
4) THE BRIDE WORE BLACK and ASSORTED SHORTS
Still miss those contests ...

Now that's a great combo!Doctorossi said:And, of course, you can't do that without also doing Dr. Strangelove and Fail-Safe.
