If you're familiar with Contextualize/Whamise This Line, then you may know how this will work. However, instead of a line, you must write a plot/synopsis based off a title from a work in a "Poster above you" format. For example...
Troper A: Soul Surfer
Troper B: Soul Surfer is a cyberpunk action film about a man who has the unique ability to go into the bodies of other people, and must do this to clear his name for a crime he hasn't committed.
Something like that. I'm just hoping I'm being concise enough. Alright, let's begin.

The sixth installment in the Fanservce-laden but non-pornographic Anime comedy series about the eponymous sexy massage parlor. The girls live, love and laugh as they encounter clients of many different backgrounds and hear their stories during their sessions. Diamond, having been Put on a Bus in Part 2, is a popular masseuse and Manic Pixie Dream Girl who's just returned from a whirlwind trip around the world. She relates her many strange adventures to her co-workers.
The True Story of Rabbi Chaim "The Pummeler" Goldblatt
What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly.A "true" story (presented with "this really happened, I kid you not!") about Chaim Goldblatt, a Jewish Rabbi who's fed up with his duties and just wants to become a boxer. After taking a few major losses in the ring, he finally wins — spectacularly. His fights become so popular that he fights in a crowded arena every single day (except the Sabbath!) and becomes a legend known as "The Pummeler." He invests his massive winnings in the stock market, and becomes a gajillionaire. Then he has a crisis of faith, stops boxing, and finds God again.
Also, I think of Shadows in the Rain as an invasion story on an Ocean Planet, where aliens come from the sky and blot out the rain (hence the "shadows"). Turns out the aliens are human.

Award-winning screenwriter. Directed some movies. Trying to earn a Creator page. I do feedback here.An Agatha Christie-like novel about a crazy cat lady named Mc Gullah Karoo. She died of poison and her last words were "I know who this was. I wish i didn't". It turns out that she throught her grandson did it, but in fact it was her brother who she throght was dead long ago.
This "new era" they talk about is a load of shit. The age where pirates dream is over!? THE DREAMS OF MEN NEVER END! AM I RIGHT? -Big BadA comedy that lampoons the typical pitfalls of bureaucracy. American tourist Harry Langdon is falsely accused of robbing a bank in Berlin despite clear evidence showing he was unsuccessfully hitting on local women when the robbery occurred. Despite the charges being hastily dropped, Harry spends two years in prison because of some misplaced paperwork.
Monty Python's "The Meaning Of Life"
Is not impressed.The unaired special of "Monty Python," the popular children's host. Monty was designed as a sock puppet snake but eventually grew to a fully animatronic snake. The special in particular was meant to be a "gentler" way to introduce preteens to sexuality, but its use of phallic imagery had the project quickly shut down.
Master and Commander
The terraforming of Mars is going swimmingly and now we have an outpost for militar/scientific/civilian (all in one) purposes. The plot focus on the leader of the colony and his direct subordinate who is in charge of the military section. They have a Harmony Versus Discipline conflict regarding the population of the colony.
The princess who was erased from history note
edited 4th Mar '15 1:54:41 PM by dreamofwritting
Thank you!
A (purportedly) nonfiction book about an Action Girl princess who was forgotten by the world due to a plot by The Illuminati... until now. Mostly brushed off for its more Hollywood-ish qualities, but it does have some interesting facts about the life of royalty about a thousand years ago.
Stupid Questions
please call me "XionKuriyama" or some variation, thanks! | What is the good deed that you can do right now?A murder mystery/black comedy focusing on the death of Kerry Matheson, whose last words/garbled grunts make up the title.
The Bates Motel
Is not impressed.A quirky comedy about an edge-of-town motel, its staff, and all the shenanigans they find themselves in with the people who stay there. Hilarity ensues. Also a tiny subplot about competing with the new chain hotel that just opened on the other side of town.
Hey, Mister! Spare A Nickel?
Award-winning screenwriter. Directed some movies. Trying to earn a Creator page. I do feedback here.The sequel to the play "Brother, Can You Spare a Dime?" which was in turn based on the eponymous documentary based on the eponymous song (both of which actually exist). The playwright who wrote the play based on the documentary also wrote this sequel, but because it was essentially a re-hash of the play he originally wrote, it was generally derided and thus didn't do very well. The playwright stopped writing Great Depression plays altogether.
The Secret Life of Morgan Davis
A documentary telling the personal life of a late international spy who went under the name Morgan Davis. It is told through the people that knew him personally, but didn't learn of his double life until after his passing.
Hold Back the Night
Life is hard, that's why no one survives.the story of a bipolar girl who fights evil with Light magic, but eventually comes to realize that balance is key in all things. features that "do not go gentle" poem as a repeated theme, right up till the (literal) Darkest Hour and realization.
Rivers Run
Got a degree in Emotional trauma via fictional characters aka creative writing. hosting S'mores party in Hell for fellow (evil) writersKate Rivers and her husband Jay go on the run when she murders their prick neighbor. This serves as a character study for both Kate, who finds herself enjoying her slip into evil, and Jay's ruthless loyalty to the woman he loves. Their cross country spree takes them from Philadelphia to Seattle where Kate and Jay burn a night club to the ground, rob numerous banks, hijack a semi truck driven by a surprisingly amiable driver. After Jay takes a bullet for Kate she gets shaken out of her madness and manages to retreat to Mexico.
Is not impressed.A criticized children's book about an unwanted, three legged kitty, and how it survives on the streets. Despite it's happy ending, many people considered it too dark for children, especially since the artstyle is prone to heavy use of shadows.
Torchwood
An action movie for anti-environmentalists. Slade Torchwood is the resident badass who makes it his job to torch forests and wildlife reserves so they'll be good for nothing except being paved over. His opponents are an ominous Animal Wrongs Group and Evil Luddites who dispute his unfailing conviction that nature was made for man to dominate. Torchwood kills them all.
The Horla
A Creepypasta about a cryptid known s a Horla. Rips off a bunch from The Rake and Eyeless Jack, with heavy Don't Go in the Woods themes.

Now everyone pat me on the back and tell me how clever I am!A very Black Comedy about a person with some kind of disability that is convinced they can be just like anybody else, like in all those uplifting movies... and ends up causing some kind of disaster for the poor person who has to follow the protagonist cleaning up their mess.
Cleaning up their mess.
edited 19th Mar '15 11:02:01 AM by Cozzer
In the aftermath of a double-suicide, the brother and sister of the two victims attempt to hold their respective families together, while sifting through the wreckage their siblings left behind.
It's the title of a book wired so that if you open it, all the nuclear warheads in the world explode at the same time. The author is dead, so nobody will ever know what the story actually is.
Apocalypse later
edited 19th Mar '15 12:24:35 PM by Cozzer

Dragon's heart

His book, "Capturing a Dragon's Heart" initially becomes a dragon bestseller, but when young, impressionable dragons start experiencing heartbreak due to the con's lame dating advice, our protagonist suddenly has an army of very angry dragons following him home, intent on destroying everything precious to him.

Now everyone pat me on the back and tell me how clever I am!
Tear Jerker (so many tearjerkes today) about two young kids that were abandoned by their family when they were 3, and they barely remember their faces.They have to survive alone. One day they adopt a stray dog, that later is euthanasied to make the city cleaner. Later on, one of them dies. The death makes the other one question the existence of himself. It starts raining. He says "In the end, we were always... just Shadows in the Rain". He falls unconcious.
When he wakes up, he is in an unknown house. He looks around, that house is very poor. In there, he finds an old grandma. Her son was killed in a car crash and her grandson died of cancer, so she lives alone. She feels like she has been given one more chance by God, so she starts raising up the kid.
I... don't know where i am going with that. Anyway, this movie was controversial, with many people finding it too sappy. It was a commercial flop.
