Yeah new subtitles are fine.

 Can you change the Ed Asner thread to 'Santa' of whom he has played on many occasions? It was originally 'Lou Grant'.  :devil:

Have not Granted your wish, sorry.

 

Can you change the Dead Screenwriters Society thread to what it originally was? 'FADE OUT. THE END'  :duck:

Can the Alt Obits Dead Pool tagline be ‘That pool that Gerard Tierney always win’?

Hymn Writers     Better than vitamins for a long life?

Dana Reeve (christopher's Widow)     Died from lung cancer

Not Really Famous, But What A Moniker!     People with great names

Olympic Deaths/Dead Medallists     All equal in the end
Deadio Times     Tune in, turn on, drop dead!
Boris Johnson     Public lynching - A Spectator sport?
Golf: The 19th Hole     A good walk spoiled
Earthquakes, Tsunamis, Hurricanes, Mudslides     Mother Nature's Revenge

I suppose "Use it up and wear it out" isn't appropriate in her case.

Although come to think of it, she always displays great relish and enthusiasm for erotic paintings, so who knows.

I can't remember what by-line I used for Sepp Blatter, but I do remember I wasn't entirely happy with it.

 

Knock yourselves out.

Yup some of those are correct, but are so bad they shouldn’t be resurrected.  ‘A good walk spoiled’ Not funny not anything, and when you have the infamous Dangerfield line about ‘what are the two greatest wastes of real estate: golf courses and cemeteries”, maybe something like ‘one of the greatest wastes of real estate’ or summat at least has context.  I prefer it be left blank than ‘a good walk spoiled’ frankly.  

 

I created a thread that that had a piss poor subtitle that has been left off and I’m happy to see it that way.  So I’m consistent, if nothing else.

Hey, how many of you have come up with a tag line pun so bloody awful it got used on the DDP main site?

 

 

Dr Zhiva-gone (it's down near the bottom)

 

 

And when I say "came up with", I obviously mean "got there first ahead of everyone else going for the same crap line" which is quite unusual for me. :D

FIFA meets Reaper.

 

You'd think with a name like that there'd be something better. But I'll be damned if I can think of it right now, so definitely onboard with 'not entirely happy'.
