Recently someone on Twitter started a thread of punny movie names, replacing words in the movie's titles with names of fish (search on Twitter for #fishyfilms.) Normally I don't pay much attention to such things, but for some reason this one grabbed a hold of my medulla and won't let go.
Here then is the ridiculous set of fishy movie titles that have been spilling out of my brain:
· Of Mice and Minnows
· Forest Guppy
· Angelfish and Demons
· The Crawfish from the Black Lagoon
· The Da Vinci Cod
· Agnes of Cod
· Morays, Inc.
· View to a Krill
· Dr. Ono
· Dolphin are Forever
· The Fry who Loved Me
· On Her Majesty's Secret Salmon
· Goldfishfinger
· Live and Let Fry
· Goodbye, Mr. Fish and Chips
· The Tartar Sauce Affair
· The Beatles: Smelt!
· The Barramundi of the Vanities
· Farewell, My Lumpfish
· The Fishes of Eastwick
· A Clockwork Orange Roughy or A Cockle Orange
· The Day of the Jackfish
· Three Days of the Flounder
· What’s New Octopussycat?
· Death of A Salmon
· Cool Hand Fluke
· Big Gills Don’t Cry
· Bill & Ted’s Excellent Abalone
· Five Easy Perches
· A Fistful of Sand-dollars
· No Country for Old Minnows
· All The Puffer’s Men or All the President’s Minnows
· The Seventh Eel
· Star Trek II: The Wrasse of Khan
· All Quiet on the Western Grunt
· The 5000 Fillets of Dr. T

Ones that I didn’t come up with, but were posted by others:

· When Herring Met Sally
· Guys and Dolphins
· Trout of Africa
· A Starfish is Born
· Anemone Mine
