That Reminds Me

I don't know how well this will go over, but it could be interesting...Maybe even fun :p


Sometimes a movie will remind you of another movie...It could be because the movies are similar (same theme, same atmosphere, a similar title, etcetera)...Or it could be that it has an actor or a character that makes you think of another movie with that actor or similar character...The memory could also be personal, maybe you watched 2 movies on the same night, with the same person or as a double-feature (like at the drive-in), so one movie makes you think of the other...Sometimes we don't have any idea why a movie might makes us think of another one, but it happens


Anyway...This is how it's done


One person says '*movie title* reminds me of *movie title*...Then gives a reason why (if they HAVE a reason, if there is no reason, or you just don't want to explain, then don't give a reason)....The next person takes the last movie mentioned and says '*last movie title* reminds me of *movie title*'...and it keeps going from there


Example:

Start with Dreamscape


First answerer: Dreamscape reminds me of Nightmare On Elm Street

That's pretty self-explanatory...People being killed in their dreams

Second answerer: Nightmare On Elm Street reminds me of Sleepy Hollow

Johnny Depp was in both

Third answerer: Sleepy Hollow reminds me of Scanners

People lose their heads

The next person would start with 'Scanners'

I hope this isn't too complicated :)

If more than one person responds to the same thing, just go with the last movie you see mentioned at the time that you post your answer.

Razor Blade Smile reminds me of Undead

Both looked promising but ended up being terrible films.

Kill Bill reminds me of James Bond 007


Both are movies that everyone talks about, but I haven't watched them...The action scenes I've seen (the girl in yellow) make me think of James Bond

Trilogy Of Terror 2 reminds me of Cat's Eye

The thing on the cover of Trilogy Of Terror 2 always makes me think of the little troll in Cat's Eye...And they are both anthologies
