How have you not seen dirty dancing?

Boomer's avatar

I really don't know... It's just never come up! 😂

Alex Sinclair's avatar

I'd also really recommend Stand By Me. It's a beautiful film.

Seen 20 of them

I actually had to look up what some of these were called in Hungary because man we have the strangest movie title translations 😅

Alex Sinclair's avatar

Aha, now I want an example. My favourite case of this happening was Israel's retitling of "Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs" to “It's Raining Falafel"

Lanah Tyra's avatar

Ok try guessing which one is this then: The 8th passenger is death.

That's Alien... which is not on the above list?

Lanah Tyra's avatar

not on the above list indeed but it's a prime example.

But one from the list in Hungarian is translated to "Ghost story" and another is "Class Zero" (class here means the subjects in your school roster for a day? not sure what is the English term for that) and there is "Treasure Hunter"

Horror and Cats's avatar

I don't know which those are, but I definitely knew my international Alien titles XD

How have you watched that many from this list yet not seen The Breakfast Club?!

Embarassingly I have only seen 10 though so.... only mild judgement coming from me

FirestormGamingTeam's avatar

Embarrassingly enough, I had to look up what The Breakfast Club was lol

Poltergeist is a TV show right?

Horror and Cats's avatar

There is a show called Poltergeist: The Legacy, but in the list I’m assuming they are talking about the movie.

Boomer's avatar

There was a TV show, but it's also a series of films. I always confused it with a comedy horror, so I never really checked it out 🤷

Thomas's avatar

I've seen 18 of these!

FirestormGamingTeam's avatar

Noice man, I do love how u took the image n just marked it, reminds me of school xD

Konquest's avatar

I wanted to do the same too then I saw Thomas doing it.

Alex Sinclair's avatar

I think I've seen them all apart from Sixteen Candles, Risky Business, Poltergeist, Pretty in Pink, and Footloose

FirestormGamingTeam's avatar

Surprising how many haven't seen Footloose, as when they used the song in Umbrella Academy it became quite a searched film to watch.

Alex Sinclair's avatar

I'll get round to it one day. I've seen lots of clips from it, and I love the song!

Ford James's avatar

Man, I've only seen nine. Blade Runner has been on my list for a long while though, as has Scarface.

FirestormGamingTeam's avatar

Only nine! Well, you know what you're doing this weekend!

Konquest's avatar

oh man! You’re gonna love watching them!
