Why is it that every movie that has something like "Matrix meets Deep Rising" as a promo/advertisment is appaling?
So i thought i would create a thread where we put together the worst film promo's we can, so here goes:
Silent Running meets Terminator
2001 meets The Ten Commandments
Pokemon meets Gone with the Wind
Any takers?

@fable: Don't forget...
Gruntboy meets Ubik. I'm not sure if this works as a promo/advertisement, though....
I think
When Saigo met Foul is the best I've ever seen.
Oh, that's a movie title. Sorry.

LOL @sleep..good thread. the Oxford music magazine
NightShift has a similar habit, but with 'meets' replaced with more interseting verbs. It would not be surprising to find a band reviewd as sounding like David Bowie eating Iggy Pop's brains of a plate made of the crushed vocal chords of the surviving members of T-Rex. Or something.
anyway, how about Sleeping Beauty meets Sleepy Hollow?
