The Future of Mormon Cinema–A Decade Ago

I’m in the middle of a move right now, and as part of my organizing, I came across some notes from 2003 where I had written my jokes from MC’ing a singles ward talent show.  One of my bits was to take current t.v. and movie titles and mormonize them.

10:  How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days >>>How to Lose Your BYU Guy in 10 Hours

9:  In Austria the hills are alive with the sound of music>>>In sacrament meeting, even the old people are awake with the sound of the ward choir

8:  Primary Colors>>>Rated G Primary Colors

7:  Two Guys, a Girl, and a Pizza Place>>>Two Girls, a Guy, and a Pizza Place in Colorado City

6:  Not Another Teen Movie>>>Not Another Primary Program

5:  CSI–Crime Scene Investigations>>>FPRI–Faith Promoting Rumor Investigations

4:  Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon>>>Sleeping Bishop, Fidgeting Deacon

3:  Spiderman>>>Sacrament Man (The saga of one man’s quest to be on time to pass the sacrament)

2:  My Big Fat Greek Wedding>>>My Big Fat Pregnant Mother at my Mormon Wedding

1:  Star Trek:  To Boldly Go Where No One Has Gone Before>>>Pioneer Trek:  You Hope You Go Where No One Has Gone Before.

 

Okay, frankly, some hits and misses.  So let’s do an update.  Post your cheeky Mormon t.v. and movie titles in the comments.
