Back when Kara and I hosted chat-room games on AOL, we often employed wordplay as well as trivia. One of the crowd favorites was In Other Words, where we’d provide a title (a TV show, book, film, album, or song) using word clues. In the world of movies, U.S. Spray-Painted Tags might represent American Graffiti, while Precipitation Guy could be Rain Man.
See if you can figure out these three movie titles:
Unrest on a Paper Towel
Cosmo Fights an Electric Guitar
Messy Prince
HERE are the answers.

Well, I got 2 & 3. Not bad for never having heard of #1. All I could come up with was paper towel brands (Bounty, Brawny, Scott, Viva..) – but alas, no movie title.

I’m with you, Bri. I’ve never even heard of #1, but I did get 2 & 3. That could be a fun game!

Mutiny on the Bounty was released in 1935 starring Clark Gable and again in 1962 starring Marlon Brando and Richard Harris. It’s also a book “Mutiny on the H.M.S. Bounty”
