Title: Alternate Titles for "Setting up a Room"
Post by: Kenotic on September 14, 2011, 03:33:52 PM
You know, I think you could retitle this thing, add some depressing ambient music, and even do some reediting and you'd have a pretentious indie film that would get raves from Roger Ebert or Mubi.

That film would also need I title. I suggest:

- My Dinner With Helen and Roberta
- Waiting For Miss Godot
- Andy Warhol''s "Room Job"
- Kindergarten A-Go-Go

Any more?

I'll take a shot at this. But can only think of one based on the dropped subplot.

OK, I'll play.

Make it a really boring horror movie as Block Corner Massacre.  You know, those 2 guys said they had more stuff to deliver and WE NEVER SAW THEM AGAIN!!!

For a mystery: Where's The Clay?

Going more art house, simply: Table Games.

And one that has a little double entendre, and rips of a pretty bad movie: Pushing Wood
