Conversations I'd Like To Hear At The Movies

There's a kid's movie currently in theaters called Cats And Dogs: The Revenge Of Kitty Galore. Really, Hollywood? Kitty Galore? This is a movie for children, correct? No kid's going to understand that name unless they're aware of Pussy Galore and Bond movies. I cannot wait to hear this conversation between a weekend Dad and his 8 year old daughter as they're standing in line at the theater:

Daughter: Kitty Galore's a funny name. What's that mean, Daddy?

Dad: Oh, well that's a spoof of a name from a Bond movie, honey. In the James Bond movie Goldfinger, Pussy Galore was the lesbian pilot and henchmen of the title villain.

Daughter: Pussy Galore? That's a funny name too! What's that one mean? And what's a less-beeman?

Dad: Um... well... you see, "galore" means "abundant," and in this instance, "pussy" means... er, that is to say... How about we go see Despicable Me instead?

  1. I always thought the original "Cats and Dogs" movie was a load of crap... Then they made a sequel... I don't want to live on this planet anymore...
