[Don't just post titles of pre-existing bad movies. It's a tired joke.]

But instead of going after kidnappers, an ex-hitman finally snaps and goes full manhunt on the source of his spam calls about his cars extended warranty and proceeds to track down and beat to death all the execs behind it with am old school corded phone. Played by Russell Crowe or Vinny Jones.
A remake of the original, with a twist. Instead of being a successful good looking writer, the main character is a single NEET that looks like the Comic Book Guy. Everything else is the same.
What happens???
He is captured, arrested, and tortured until he no longer likes cookies. He is then, in the most ironic of punishments, then sent all the way to Nashville where he has a new job as a baker, where he has to make cookies.
Christopher Robin(played by a random Brit) and his wife(Florence Pugh) have to fight against an evil heffalump that has turned to carnivorism. The design is based on people who trying making a proboscidean that was a carnivore.
So it’s your typical love drama/romance show. All goes as you’d expect it too - people argue, then make up, Etc. - with a twist.
At the end of the show/movie, “yada yada” one is about to propose to the other or something…
Screen cuts to white, which fades to black…
A TV lights up in a dark room. The news channel reveals the horrifying truth of what just happened…
“(An opposing super power) has launched a full scale nuclear attack on (city where show/movie takes place). Hundreds of thousands are believed to have been caught in the initial blasts…”
All the while the camera is slowly panning back, until ultimately, this home is also engulfed in a white flash of light.
That’s it. Nothing else, no credits or music, just the deafening silence of what the viewer just witnessed. Even more impactful if the show/movie makes the characters relatable and sympathetic along the length of the runtime.
So what do you think? I think it’s a good metaphors for how dangerous big weapons are - something something - nuclear weapons bad!
It is basically a film designed on purpose to never be released in China as this version of Pooh is in love with Piglet. He also constant references 1989, the genocide, Taiwan, and the Dalai Lama(who is an old man).
Basically, the fundie pastor from Pensacola Florida(with predictably bigoted opinions) visits the park and they think the scientists have summoned demons. The dinosaurs(as fossils) were "created by Satan" to fool people. How does this movie go?
The idea is set primarily around people being killed at his restaurant (which he is mad at as they don't have old-timey cans of spinach there). The main characters are just a group of stoners who eat fast food there.
There is an evil sorcerer who wants the Republicans to win. His solution of course involves using supernatural forces and summoning the undead. Zombies are brought back from the dead and they are sent to the voting booths. They crumble into dust once they've voted.
They are ordering humans for dinner and are choosing which ones to eat
This time, it is made even more racist and features white people in blackface playing slaves. There's also a character who is somehow a good guy despite him being in the KKK. It is funny BECAUSE it is deliberately offensive.
Main character wins enough money off of a scratcher to start a burger joint.
So they open the burger joint and nobody comes in.
Each day they open up. No customers.
This repeats for a full 90 minutes.
Then the other character turns to the main character and says, “I told you we should have waited until the pandemic was over to open your restaurant.”
Then there’s a flashback scene to the main character scratching off his ticket. Him running home. Eyes wide. And the side character saying those exact words (this was never shown at the beginning of the movie).
Gross out humor is the cornerstone of this movie. A lot of jokes are about the actress's butt too and she even breaks a chair at one point.
Given Better Man failed with American audiences, they try the same concept with a different singer who herself is an American.
Mickey and Friends are present to help the Orlando Magic win the NBA Championship.
Pretty self explanatory
The guy's car keeps breaking down for the weirdest reasons. Also, the characters live in Detroit, Michigan and it is winter, which is thematically appropriate as the film is set in February for Valentine's Day. The CyberTruck also can talk and is voiced by Kid Rock. She dumps him at the end, and he dies in his truck as it catches on fire(this happened in real life in a Houston suburb to a CyberTruck owner).
This woman's name is Jennifer Lawrence and she gets mixed up with the famous one. She is played by someone else of course to be funnier.
Shows a town in our dystopian future, everyone is pretty isolated and there is little interaction, just kinda grey. Maybe it’s because of our reliance/use of technology, maybe it’s a governmental order, that there’s limited interaction.
In this future, most employment has been replaced by AI. Doctors, athletic trainers, etc., all replaced by AI. But they haven’t been able to replace everything. We follow a middle-aged or older woman as she works at a suicide hotline. But the suicide hotline is still being billed as being staffed by AI, as they tried but failed to replace it and had to resume human staffing. We watch her learn how to break the tech to alter the scripts she is supposed to use, customizing them to callers, being able to build relationships with repeat callers.
We watch the other employees. How they interact, how they celebrate each others birthdays. Maybe we watch her form a relationship with another employee, that begins in a very hesitant way, Instagram likes, or a secretive “hi”, etc.
Then we watch as whatever governmental entity is implementing all of this comes back confident and ready to replace everyone with AI. We watch the employees hatch a plan to fight back.
Alternatively, we watch the lives of the employee and a frequent caller cross paths, but both are naive.
She is a gay woman, which is unremarkable, but she has no powers. The fact she has no powers is a big deal. She is married to someone who does have powers though(her wife's powers are to make traffic lights green whenever she wants). The fact she has no powers has her bullied at the academy.
A cop movie about a police officer whose name is Peter Down and he has Down Syndrome. He gets shot and falls down a well and he has to solve his way out.
Shit gets dark fast and it gets really messed up.
