Meme idea stolen from starsparkle333

Pick 20 movies/anime/video games/comic books/literary works/TV shows and put their summaries from Better than it Sounds and WITHOUT CHEATING have your friends guess.

1. Estranged husband tries to bond with his kids, only to find out that he really picked a bad time to do so.

2. Secret agent with amnesia wanders around much of the world, beats up other secret agents and others who are after him, and all the while tries to remember who he really is.

3. A boy discovers he has a talent and goes to a school for his talent, where the teachers are either kind hearted or douchebags.

4. Man tries to get some money while humiliating his ex's current affair.

5. Some plonker reads a book to his nephew. Or was it his grandson?

6. Aliens search for the boy after he's possessed by a piece of metal. For many, about as bad as it sounds, and a good deal more racist.

7. Batman writes a newspaper story on King Henry VII pretending to be David Bowie who had sex with Obi-Wan Kenobi and faked his own death. Later, Obi-Wan and Batman have gay sex on a roof. A preteen female fanfic writer's wet dream.

8. Holocaust survivor turns Statue of Liberty into deadly weapon.

9. A bunch of Funny Animals learn a lesson about equality and playing by the rules.

10. Old man moves to England and leeches off young women while he's there. Eventually, their friends hunt him down and kill him with knives.

11. A boy spends a year trying to kill a man. He eventually succeeds.

12. Vast armies fight over a piece of jewelry.

13. Half-naked orphan with nobility backstory deals with animals and lost civilizations. Somehow, he doesn't have a beard.

14. Obsessive control-freak stalker and self-confessed cannibal breaks into the house of a hybristophiliac girl with age and appearance issues and low self-esteem, watches her sleep, goes through her dirty laundry, attempts to intimidate her with displays of his physical prowess and rare dermatological disorder, and reminds her at every opportunity that he wants to kill and eat her. It's a love story. (Really NOT better than it sounds.)

15. Girl falls for bad boy, but marries someone else. Bad boy chucks an Emo-fit and seeks revenge.

16. British man famous for unusual songs, androgyny, and appearing in movies.

17. A guy with an ABD in astrophysics joins forces with a flamboyantly gay singer to write mini-rock operas about riding a bicycle. Over 30 years later he gets that PhD.

18. Four British musicians tough to kill and/or retire.

19. High School Musical with issues.

20. Two gorgeous brothers with major-league Daddy issues seek out monsters and kill them in various nasty ways, using things as diverse as salt-filled shotgun shells, barbed wire, and circular saws. Lots of sex is had along the way. A really great car and lots of eighties rock, apocalypses, and angst are also involved. The world really really sucks, but it's funny anyway.
