Movie taglines that rocked the cinema world!

[Bartwald]

Here's the deal:

ONE

Pick your favourite tagline out of the eight in the poll. They are the following:

#1: Crime is the disease. Meet the cure.
#2: Man is the warmest place to hide.
#3: ...He's come to town - with a few days to kill.
#4: You know the name. You know the number.
#5: In space, no-one can hear you scream.
#6: Nice planet. We'll take it.
#7: Family isn't a word. It's a sentence.
#8: Who will survive and what will be left of them?

These are some of my personal favourites - it was impossible to put all of them here, obviously. But if you have some taglines that you think should end up in the poll, here's the next step for you...

TWO

Give us more cool taglines here!

And there's always the final step...

THREE

Identify the taglines in the poll! What are the movie titles they all come from? I know that not giving away the sources for these eight taglines right now may make some of them have a bit less impact, but I still decided to do it this way. How many of them do you know then?

My choice is 'Nice planet. We'll take it.' Short, logical, funny. The movie ain't as good as the tagline in this case.

[LivingDeadGirl]

I voted for #5... ;D
Don't know what movies the rest of them are from....

[Sybillness]

No. 5 I've always thought that was great along with the creepy organic looking egg!

Ok, so these are the ones I think I know:

#2 - The Thing
#5 - Alien
#6 - Mars Attacks

And that's it.

Of course I can't think of any of my own, but after more people post and come up with others, I'll go, of course, why didn't I remember that one!

[LivingDeadGirl]

Here's some more:

"He came back to settle the score with someone. Anyone. EVERYONE."

"Trapped in time, surrounded by evil, low on gas."

"Pray for daylight."

"The night HE came home."

"Believe in angels."

[Heineken Skywalker]

Okay, I voted for #5: In space, no-one can hear you scream. Which is, of course, from ALIEN. But you already knew I'd vote for that one, right Bart? ;D

Besides the ones that Sybillness named, I can also identify #1: "Crime is the disease. Meet the cure." That's from the Stallone flick, COBRA. #4 is from one of the James Bond movies, but I have no idea which one. I can't remember the rest.
Of livingdeadgirl's I recognize: "Trapped in time, surrounded by evil, low on gas." That's ARMY OF DARKNESS. And "The night HE came home." is of course from HALLOWEEN. Is "Believe in angels." from CITY OF ANGELS? Wasn't sure about that one.

Okay, here's a few more for you guys to ponder:

1) "Just when you thought it was safe to get back in the water."
2) "Every man dies, not every man really lives."
3) "We are not alone"
4) "Just because they serve you... doesn't mean they like you."
5) "He loved the American dream. With a vengeance."
6) "You will believe a man can fly."
7) "Sometimes dead is better."
8) "Once in a lifetime comes a motion picture that makes you feel like falling in love again. This is not that movie." ;D
9) "Sleep all day. Party all night. Never grow old. Never die. It's fun to be a vampire."
10) "Here comes the bride"

[ZapRowsdower]

I voted for Mars Attacks. I always liked that tagline. Here are some more of my favs.

"Get 'touched' by an angel."
"The Mighty Warriors Who Became the Seven National Heroes of a Small Town"
"Man Has Made His Match... Now It's His Problem."
"It's the story of a man, a woman, and a rabbit in a triangle of trouble."
"They had a date with fate in __________!"
"It's Terrific!"
"They're not there to shop. - They're not there to work. - They're just there."
"Adventure doesn't come any bigger than this."
"They're the man."
"You can erase someone from your mind. Getting them out of your heart is another story."
"No actual Europeans were harmed in the making of this film."
"It's not who you love. It's how."
"This Christmas, Santa's Got a Brand New Bag."
"He wanted it all... but he got more than he bargained for."
"Everybody wants to be found."
"He doesn't care if you're naughty or nice."

The Lost Boys

10) "Here comes the bride"

Kill Bill: Vol. 1.

[Heineken Skywalker]

Good job, IamTheSmitty.

#1 is actually JAWS 2, ie: ...back in the water. Sorry to nitpick.
#8 is THE WAR OF THE ROSES

Here are some guesses at some of yours:

"The Mighty Warriors Who Became the Seven National Heroes of a Small Town"
SEVEN SAMURAI
"It's the story of a man, a woman, and a rabbit in a triangle of trouble."
DONNIE DARKO
"They're not there to shop. - They're not there to work. - They're just there."
MALLRATS
"You can erase someone from your mind. Getting them out of your heart is another story."
ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND
"No actual Europeans were harmed in the making of this film."
EUROTRIP
"He doesn't care if you're naughty or nice."
BAD SANTA

A few of the others are familiar, but I can't place them.
Anyone? Anyone?

[Bartwald]

Why, you were quick to find most of my bunch of taglines, guys! The James Bond movie you asked about, Heineken is GoldenEye. The so-far correct titles are:

#1: Crime is the disease. Meet the cure.
Cobra
#2: Man is the warmest place to hide.
The Thing
#3: ...He's come to town - with a few days to kill.
??
#4: You know the name. You know the number.
GoldenEye
#5: In space, no-one can hear you scream.
Alien
#6: Nice planet. We'll take it.
Mars Attacks!
#7: Family isn't a word. It's a sentence.
??
#8: Who will survive and what will be left of them?
??


As for my own guesses at your taglines, here they go:

'Sometimes dead is better' - Pet Sematary
'Pray for daylight' - Near Dark
'He loved the American dream. With a vengeance' - Scarface (ah, but you knew I was going to get this one, didn't you, Heineken? )

Have to think harder about the others.

Oh, and Smitty: don't forget to vote for #6, it's got to catch up with the Alien tagline!

[Heineken Skywalker]

"He loved the American dream. With a vengeance' - Scarface (ah, but you knew I was going to get this one, didn't you, Heineken?)"

Yeah, I knew Bart. ;D

"#8: Who will survive and what will be left of them?"

Is that TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE??

[Bartwald]

Oh yes, it is!

[Heineken Skywalker]

"#3: ...He's come to town - with a few days to kill."

I'm pretty sure that's a slasher. Probably a Jason/FRIDAY THE 13TH or a Michael Myers/HALLOWEEN flick.
JASON TAKES MANHATTAN??

[ZapRowsdower]

Here are a few hints.

"Get 'touched' by an angel."
Note the quotations around "touched".

"Man Has Made His Match... Now It's His Problem."
This is actually the premise of the movie in a nutshell.

"It's the story of a man, a woman, and a rabbit in a triangle of trouble."
No, it's not Donnie Darko.

"They had a date with fate in __________!"
The "__________" is actually the title of the movie.

"It's Terrific!"
The simple tagline suggests it's an older movie.

"Adventure doesn't come any bigger than this."
There's a hint of irony in this one.

"They're the man."
This one's too easy, and any hints I give will give this one away.

"It's not who you love. It's how."
Why do I feel you should have known this one?

"This Christmas, Santa's Got a Brand New Bag."
It was released during the holiday season, and for the director, it was something new.

"He wanted it all... but he got more than he bargained for."
This was quite recent... I'm surprised you didn't know it.

"Everybody wants to be found."
This was made in 2003.

While you're pondering those with the hints I gave you, here's a few more to start thinking about.

"The bride is back for the final cut."
"There are 3.7 trillion fish in the ocean*, they're looking for one."
"The Legend Comes to Life."
"No mercy. No shame. No sequel."
"Before you die, you see ________."
"Makes Ben Hur look like an epic."
"More entertaining than humanly possible."
"Don't answer the phone. Don't open the door. Don't try to escape."
"The hotline suspense comedy."
"After a night they can't remember, comes a day they'll never forget."
"Prepare to be blown out of the water."
" See the movie that's controversial, sacrilegious, and blasphemous. But if that's not playing, see The _____________."
"Never give a saga an even break!"
"What's slower than a speeding bullet, and able to hit tall buildings at a single bound?"
"Who are they? And what do they want?"
"The Earth's Darkest Day Will Be Man's Finest Hour."
"Movie? What movie?"
"Because someone is dead doesn't mean they're gone."
"Murder. Blackmail. Temptation. Redemption. It's been a busy week."

[Bartwald]

You're killing us, Smitty! ;D

But that's good, of course, that's good... However I only got two of your last set:

'They're the man' is probably Starsky And Hutch
'It's not who you love. It's how' is Chasing Amy.

JASON TAKES MANHATTAN??

Uh, no. It's from Predator 2. But I wouldn't mind seeing it on the poster for Jason Takes Manhattan, either!
