Write A Plot From The Title (Writing Game)

Go To

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.

An 100-year old man realizes that he hasn't gotten lung cancer despite having smoked for 90 of those years. He then theorizes that his purpose for existence is to give up his body FOR SCIENCE, so that humanity might find another way to combat cancer.

He then starts pestering the researchers next door about it.

A starship is approaching the end of it's five year mission when it receives an urgent message from earth requesting assistance. By the time the crew return to earth and provide whatever assistance is needed their mission will be over, meaning this is their return home. However, the very thing that the inhabitants of earth required assistance with does all it can to try and stop their return; and when they have passed these trials there's still an epic final action packed battle left to finish the movie!

A comedy about a Satanist, Daniel Webster, who summons The Devil himself... only to find out the Father of Lies is sort of a pussy. He finds that the Prince of Darkness is actually a very shy and reserved man, who, while having infinite powers, doesn't actually know how to use them, and lives in constant fear that the Archangel Michael is going to kick his ass again. After the Lord of the Flies possesses a human body, Daniel teaches him how to be more assertive, and gives him pointers on how to live up to the name "Evil Incarnate".

The expansion pack to the Halo Combat fighting game, where you play as angels and demons and fight during the Revelation. However, the expansion was merely just DLC that was already on the disk, pissing off fanboys to almost apocalyptic levels.

The autobiography of the iceberg that hit the Titanic. We learn of his childhood as a raindrop and snow, watch him grow into a mighty glacier, then his breaking away from home on an incredible journey across the Atlantic, at least his terrible accident that shocked a nation.

A talented assassin, Huo, wields the fabled sword Blood Diamond, whose blade is made of said precious stones and thus is so sharp it can cut through any object. But now he's seen enough of combat and wants to retire. Unfortunately, many enemies remain that hunger for revenge, and for his blade. Huo decides to train an heir in the art of wielding the Blood Diamond, that they may become the next greatest assassin in his stead. He will take that heir through many duels against his enemies, and his final test will be to duel with Huo himself.
