The movie is basically The Mask but with 3 cats.

Those traps Jerry uses look even more painful on humans. The show gets criticized by Media Watchdog groups for excessive violence, and only lasts a few shows before cancellation.

Major League, except it's about a struggling MLS expansion soccer squad instead of a baseball team.

Basically, you have a G.I. Joe cartoon, complete with all of the toyetic sci-fi vehicles, Humongous Mecha and hidden bases, except the Cobra-style villain faction is composed entirely of the villain characters from the series.

The game is flipped into an adventure game with strong survival horror aspects as you try to escape the ruthless bounty hunter Samus Aran. The goal is to return to Mother Brain to warn her before Samus can destroy your species. The game became something of a cult classic with Metroid fans, with a few comparing it to Alien: Isolation.

A Crash Bandicoot dating sim where all the characters are sexy anime female versions of themselves.

Pretty much any remotely attractive male villain is given a canon Draco in Leather Pants treatment, up to and including Melkor.

Anyone and everyone does get threatened with death on a regular basis, including the Cutie Mark Crusaders. Despite this, the show is "only" rated TV-Y7, for there were limits to how dark and edgy one could make the show without drawing the attention of animal rights groups.

Star Wars: Masters of Teräs Käsi (that really bad PS1 Star Wars Fighting Game) as a cartoon similar to Star Wars: Clone Wars or Star Wars Rebels.

It becomes something similar to Bobby's World, where the epic sword fights are all in the babies' heads. Then it just goes off the rails with ninja and dinosaurs being thrown into the mix, and no one can figure out what's going on.

A literal interpretation of The Shape of Water as done by someone who's only heard the title and nothing else.

All the violence is still there, but done more comedic. It's a The Many Deaths of You backed up with catchy music and a Bloodborne post credit scene.

Batman v Superman, but's with Christopher reeve and Micheal Keaton in there prime.

Progress has it's stepping stones.

It's the exact same plot except all the characters are now well known Muppet characters... Not sure if that makes this film more or less scary. Either way, something tells me it doesn't go over too well with parents.

A full length film based on the music video for Mr. Brightside.

It somehow ends up becoming a high-end PG-13 romantic comedy involving the antics of the folks living in the mansion. The band themselves are the main characters and get embroiled in everyone's romantic lives. Hilarity Ensues.
