Ectopussy - In a Bond Film to forget even more than Never Say Never Again, this 80s Bond film was Timothy Dalton's final outing as bond. Riding on the "ghost" fad of the time, the producers of James Bond films felt that they need to incorporate the supernatural with the normal super power struggles. This film included a sidekick Ectopussy, a voluptuous, if dead, blonde bombshell that was... killed by an actual bombshell in what was believed at the time to be a training accident. The film didn't stand a ghost of a chance in the Box Office with the hack writing (even relative to a Roger Moore Bond Film) and phoned in script that seemed more content with its obvious attempts to desperately grab some of the phantasm fad money than trying to carry the torch for the franchise. Bill Murray and Harold Ramis make cameos which the studio was then sued over as the video was taken without the actors' permission.

Overall, it was a disaster that most involved with the project have tried very hard to forget ever happened.

So are we allowed to change any letter? I thought it needed to be regarding the current letter. So Quills needed something sub'd into a Q or the Q to something else.

The original rules were almost immediately beaten, bruised, and left in a ditch. Add a letter, take a letter, rotate a b to become a q, it's all good at this point.
 
Ah. I hadn't grasped the rules properly. I had been going on the basis of finding a film starting with the appropriate (next up) letter of the alphabet and then changing any one of the letters in it (or adding or omitting one). I had also been wondering why nearly everyone else was doing it wrong. Lol.

Given what letter is up next, I can only say to all concerned that I am very, very lorry.

Perminator II - So everything that happened in Perminator doesn't matter at all and we end up with a more expensive, bigger special effect sequel that'll pretend to wrap everything up again... only to have a trilogy pop out of nowhere because the Producer is out of ideas because Avatar is 200% over budget.

Dandyman - An oddly creepy film about trio of friends that come across an urban legend about the "Dandyman". If they look in a mirror and say Dandyman three times, he'll appear. They did it as a joke, and nothing happened. Each person went home for the night. But in the middle of the night, one of them awoke to the sound of cheery music and what sounded like muffled singing. They slowly veered out of their bedroom to hear the sounds get louder and coming from the living rooms. They slowly crept towards the living room and when they peered around the corner, they saw a dandy ole man singing a dandy chanty and dancing a dandy jigue. Even the lighting in the room was dandy. The Dandyman sees them and grabs them by the hand and the person shouts in horror as the Dandyman invites them to dance and sing and be dandy. They shook in horror as they were forced to be dandy, until the sun rose. Then they blacked out They awake in the living room with a vague remembrance of what happened.

This occurs each subsequent night with the other two... and that is about it. Until four years later, when the three of them are traveling in a plane that crashes into a mountain. The pilot of the plane turns out to look exactly like The Dandyman.
