OK. I'll bite. Here are some of mine that might be appropriate:
"Car 'toon." (Cars) "Joke Nicholson." (Batman) "Four wizards, a funeral." (Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire) "Big Fat Greek War." (Troy) "Walking and Tolkien." (Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring) |

I have no shame at all. Of my highest vote getters, I'd say the ones that are for the more well known movies (both older and newer) are:
"This: His final taps." - All That Jazz "Boleyn for concubine." - Anne Of The Thousand Days "Sabine it for marriage!" - Seven Brides for Seven Brothers "Straight out of marriage." - Gay Divorcee "No May, All December!" - Calendar Girls
Those are all very good!
How very kind of you!
I also think Benj should consider these reviews (from the top rated list):
"Houston has a problem." - The Bodyguard (Benj Clews) "The Blair Witch Projectile." - Exorcist (thefoxboy) "Passion Of The Crust." - American Pie (noncentz) "Charlize no angel." - Monster (lemmycaution) "The Emperors Hike Back." - March Of The Penguins (Se�n)

Wow, I am meant to pick just 5? How?
Well, here are a small selection of my favourites that I think might be suitable:
Messiah leaves holey Trinity - Matrix (Rovark)
Marceau just says 'No' - Silent Movie (rri1)
Said he'd be back - Terminator 2 (tfb)
Luke back in anger - Empire strikes back (Joe Blevins)
I bet Kramer wins - Kramer vs Kramer (Mguyx - can't leave off the top voted review!)
America wonders "who's Beckham" - Bend it like Beckham (Pope George)
Selfish bitch hogs float - Titanic (Mark B)
Gunners commit Mersey-cide (Chris C)
Here is another old topic that highlighted some good reviews: http://www.fwfr.com/fourum/topic.asp?ARCHIVE=true&TOPIC_ID=679&whichpage=1

SKY Broadcasting (for those not in the UK, it's our biggest satellite TV provider) has approached me about helping plug a new quiz show they're doing (which may or may not include a fwfr round) with one of these viral email quiz thingies.
These viral what? Could you please give me a clue as to what this is?
I assume it's done in text format, but I would suggest that if it is a precursor to a round of a quiz show, you should use reviews which work fine in speech.
Also, how about some kind of poll as to how accessible the shortlisted reviews are? If more than one person (or perhaps even one person) here does not get a review, it is probably too obscure for a general audience. There are several posted that I do not get.

I think the current plan is to do an excel spreadsheet where you get the clue and have to type in the film name below it and it automatically tells you if you're correct or not. |

I don't know. When you look at a group of 40 it seems impressive, but grab any 5 and my work looks lackluster.
But here are a few... not knowing what movies are "very well known" in the UK.
Groundhog Day - Get your Punxsutawney fill. Producers, The - Wanted bomb, created f�hrer. Fatal Attraction - Glenn's bad hare day. Deliverance - Beatty becomes bumpkin's Babe. Island, The - Harvesting organs takes atoll.
