Meme <3
Swiped from cmc42 because it looked just too fun.... I <3 TV Tropes.
Pick 20 movies/anime/video games/literary works and put their summaries from Better than it Sounds and WITHOUT CHEATING have your friends guess.
(Only I'm also including TV categories because to me that's almost the same as anime anyways :P)
1. LOL Aspergers. Alternatively, Red Dwarf IN PASADENA!
2. A super-strong cheerleader, a Jewish computer nerd witch, a goofy slacker, and the school librarian fight undead (mostly) monsters of the week while their personal lives turn into a soap opera. Beloved people die with depressing regularity. Later joined by a fake little sister, a thousand-year-old ex-vengeance demon, a once-evil blond British vampire, and a bunch of teenage girls who may or may not someday have superpowers. (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, as guessed by pigeonchild )
3. Flamboyant gourmand gains powerful friends and proves himself useless.
4. An old man spends several lifetimes convincing hot young things to join him inside an ancient (time traveling) phone box. He is routinely harassed by tin men, giant nazi pepperpots and his college buddies. (Doctor Who, as guessed by akinarei and margerydaw_s2 )
5. Dead people fight other dead people but almost never to the death. (Bleach, as guessed by margerydaw_s2 )
6. An angry British hotelier hates his guests, lies to his wife, and physically assaults the hotel waiter. The underpaid maid is the only competent person. It's a comedy. (Fawlty Towers, as guessed by nannette )
7. An overly dramatic honor student, a Perky Goth Genki Girl and a bored deity attempt to save the world by killing large quantities of the people living on it. Their sworn enemies include: a possibly autistic detective, a Teen Genius with action figure obsession and a chocolate-loving emo chick boy. (Death Note, as guessed by nannette )
8. A Grumpy Old Man, a Straw Vulcan and a tremendous manslut save the world galaxy.
9. A kind English church boy repeatedly rips his arm off to fight a clown. (D. Gray Man, as guessed by margerydaw_s2 )
10. A pack of inept sex-crazed maniacs attempt to fight aliens in Cardiff, fail repeatedly, die often. (Torchwood, as guessed by pigeonchild )
11. She's a spooky story-loving high school girl! He's a paranormal investigator! Together, they fight crime go hunting for spirits! (Ghost Hunt, as guessed by akinarei )
12. Three middle-school students are drawn into the raging battle between psychology and parapsychology. Freud ensues!
13. Crippled Space Marine goes to another planet, becomes furry both literally and figuratively. The planet and most of the life on it are one gigantic brain that might also be God. (Avatar, as guessed by margerydaw_s2 )
14. While not pretending to be a rude and obnoxious corporate executive, a ninja detective fights a Monster Clown, and puts to rest once and for all that wiretapping really does work.
15. An effeminate boy sells his soul for a highly skilled butler. (Kuroshitsuji, as guessed by akinarei and margerydaw_s2
16. Unlucky Childhood Friend attempts to take revenge upon the man who dumped her by beating him at his own game...show business.
17. Avon saleswoman brings abandoned man who looks almost exactly like a famous movie villain to her house.
18. A boy discovers he has a talent and goes to a school for his talent, where the teachers are either kind hearted or douchebags.
19. Teen does chores for an old man, and as a result goes from being a bully magnet to an expert fighter within months. ([The original] Karate Kid, as guessed by akinarei and pigeonchild )
20. People fight over a piece of jewelry. A bunch of pot-smoking midgets provide a convincing argument that size doesn't matter. (LoTR, as guessed by nannette )
