An Althanas Day game about your favourite TV shows and film.
Guidelines:
Post the name of a TV show or film, but badly described.
The next person has to guess that TV show or film, and can post their own bad description.
To start:
Four short guys and five slightly taller guys head off towards a fire mountain to destroy some cursed jewellery. Bad things happen.

Star Wars - A New Hope (I think it was originally just called "Star Wars", but that really encompasses episodes 4,5,6)
After a long series of small fights, three cowboys stare at each other dramatically until one gets shot.

The good, the bad and the ugly?
A man repeatedly gets either given or offered jobs he doesn't want whilst shagging his auntie, which he seems ok with.

Yes!
Game of Thrones?

Terminator 2 actually!

Superman; Robert Patrick is only bald now, and can liquid-metal morph bitching hair at any time.
A bunch of teenagers stare at each other for three hours while they sparkle. These movies bite.

Like Phi I have been struggling each time. I don't know if I want to guess this one haha.

Oh come on you two, that's obviously Ghostbusters, with a reference to them killing the Stay-Puff Marshmallow Man after letting the streams cross.
It's like you folks don't even recognize high art! :P
My turn, going to go with a movie:
A movie within a movie within a movie within a movie. If you get lost, think of your totem (perhaps a spinning top) to pull you back to reality.

INCEPTION!
Granted, you pretty much spoon fed me there.
Here's one:
Teenage girl marries man who’s profession is charter fishing all her family and friends.
Storm Veritas
06-02-2019, 09:44 PM
Is that the Little Mermaid?
I'm not sure so will await confirmation before proceeding.
Gnarl & Root
06-03-2019, 04:27 AM
You are correct!
Philomel
06-03-2019, 09:25 AM
I got the Inception one. That was easy though.
I have never seen Ghostbusters so that probably explains that one.

A man who has primarily been successful in the financial industry helps some police fill in their tax returns. An old man with a bird nearly gets run over by a car.

I think your right. But the bird thing confused me as well.

I'm going with it. Correct me if I'm wrong, Chris.
New one:
One guy sucks at throwing boxing matches. One guy sucks at chaperoning his boss's wife on a date. Another guy eats a burger, and his buddy is an absolutely AWFUL shot.

Correct! The bird relates to Brookes after he gets released and Jake (the raven!)
I'm going to go with Pulp Fiction?
Gnarl & Root
06-12-2019, 03:45 PM
Pulp fiction!
Storm Veritas
06-13-2019, 09:31 PM
You're both right, and Shin guessed first, but Gnarl was more confident (and he hasn't given 10 clues already). Gnarl is on the clock!

Yeah when I read the thread no one had posted, so he must have just pipped me to it when I was posting.
Try this one:
A Cowboy is profoundly threatened and jealous when an Astronaut surpasses him as their God's favourite.

That's Toy Story! :D
A clever fellow tells a tall tale to the police to cover up his own crimes, and they don't realize he is the actual criminal until he is released from custody and safely away.

A woman with a vendetta against a guy with a single syllable name that she repeats throughout the plot, goes on a rampage with a katana, murdering as she goes in a two part extravaganza.
Storm Veritas
06-18-2019, 08:57 AM
That is of course the fantastic Kill Bill!
A brilliant doctor is on the run for a crime he didn't commit; his sharp foil is an experienced marshal who will look in every warehouse, farmhouse, henhouse, outhouse and doghouse until he finds him.
That has to be The Fugitive with Harrison Ford and Tommy Less Jones.
A man has a castle full of people he is trying to keep alive, but the world is now little more than ash.

Not Army of Darkness is it?
A woman takes some drugs and becomes a high powered Atari.
It isn't Army of Darkness, good guess though.
That sounds like Lucy, not 100% sure about that one though.

Bingo.
What was yours then? I almost said Man in the High Castle at first but I wasn't sure.
Anyway, here's another.
Three kings get very drunk. Everything is very epic.
Mine was Reign of Fire.
Three kings get drunk? …
Sounds like the kings banquet scene from Fate/Zero.

Girl is ill but immune to fungus. She and her friends get hungry. Lots of people with guns, and more hungry others.
The last of us.
I Ninja girl gets cloned after chasing down a man she thought killed her brother. there is a lot of fighting and purple hair dye.

Close, Sage, but I was meaning the Girl With All The Gifts. Same themes.
Not sure on yours.

Ultraviolet?
It was also based of a fighting game = )
Storm Veritas

Is that a reference to Mileena from Mortal Kombat?
(I don't think so, but don't know of a Soul Caliber movie, and can't place that in Street Fighter).
Shinsou Vaan Osiris

Had no idea MCD ate corn bread in that movie.
Home Alone 2; lost in New York! Side note: "Little Rascals" may also qualify.
A bunch of kids lose their ball to a big dog who looks scary but turns out to be a really nice dog. Pickles are involved.

The Sandlot?
A manchild rubs his nuts on some drums. His first music video involves small vessels and female escorts.
Storm Veritas
11-18-2021, 11:46 PM
Yes, and of course Oscar-worthy classic "Step Brothers".
A Five-Dollar Milkshake is consumed. People dance. Ball-gags come into play, and hilarity ensues!

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say Pulp Fiction?
Tough one to be honest. I'll wait for the answer before doing mine.
