FraCtuReD FLicKs III - SPAM-O-RAMA May 2004

NEW RULES (no this isn't Bill Maher) for FraCturReD FLicks III

SPAM-O-RAMA has returned!

This new continuous game will be movie titles which add or substitute the word Spam.

"2001: A Spam Odyssey"

Follows the evolution of Spam from the primates chopping up a wild boar into little pieces with a huge mammoth shin bone to the discovery of a monolith on the moon which is a shrine to the food of the universe. After surviving on Spam all the way from Earth on a space liner, Heywooden Floyd visits the lunar site of the monolith when suddenly the piercing squishy sound of Spam being pulled out of a can causes him to put his hands over his nose. Years later, after HAL the computer goes schizo over the very mention of the word Spam (as any computer would), Bowman is thrown out into infinite space to end up having to dine on Spam for the rest of his life. He returns to Earth as a baby and pukes it all up in the upper atmosphere.

Ebert: I made a trip to the snack bar but found they didn't sell Spam.

Roeper: A travesty of anti-epicurean nonsense.


Archived game:

Gone With The Rear Window

The story of a Peeping Tom during the Civil War. Scarlett O'Hara keeps visiting him and making costume changes every few minutes. Tom thinks there's been a killing during the Battle of the Bulging Shorts and that the body has been buried in a flower pot on the White House porch.
He suspects the resident, a tall lanky man wearing a stovepipe hat. Anyone wearing a hat that looks like a silo must be guilty. It is more likely that Wet Butler did it. (The script, of course, is by Bugs Bunny).
