Ill-Conceived Box Copy for a Movie I Love: The Graduate
One of my hobbies is to coming up with terrible commercials or taglines for movies. Once I even wrote a new theme song for According to Jim.
But today, friends, I wrote some ill-conceived box copy for The Graduate:
See the movie that had all of America asking, "Are you seducing me, Mrs. Robinson?"
Anne Bancroft stars as the original M.I.L.F.! This desperate housewife will do anything she can to seduce a boy half her age (Dustin Hoffman). He graduated college, but now she wants to give him an extra semester of education -- sexual education!
Fans of There's Something About Mary and Meet the Parents will love this quirky laugh riot that's not afraid to get a little raunchy. Featuring a soundtrack with original versions of hit songs like Mrs. Robinson and The Sounds of Silence!
I don't know why I did it, but I did. It started with a doodle of Mrs. Robinson peeling the skin of her leg off. What. The. Hell. Why would I do this to one of my all-time favorite movies? Oh well.
