The Fasting Furious (the fast and the furious)
Driving Miss Danger (driven)
Born on the Fourth of July (independence day)
Three Kids (three kings)
Princesses Diapers (the princess diaries)
LEGaly Blonde (pronounced LEG)
Matlox (matrix)
Bloodfanger (Bowfinger)
A ONE (A I)
The Next Sense (sixth sense)

Or how about the descriptions they give because they cant remember what it is called...

"The movie with those guys in it that are like in the desert killing people for money and stuff" (THREE KINGS)

"give me three tickets to the darth vader movie where his son is a baby" (PHANTOM MENACE)

"What movie has that lamp bizzcuts song, oh yeah, two for tarzan"

or how about these oldies but goodies, when they ask you about movies you have...

"is THE MESSENGER good for a six year old?"
"is there a lot of violence in FIGHT CLUB?"
"is the MATRIX like bill and teds adventure or is it funnier?"
"does PLANET OF THE APES have the dinosaurs in it, or is that Dr Doolittle"
"Is Lara Croft in the movie TOMB RAIDER the same Lara Croft in the TOMB RAIDER game?"
"What were the movies before FINAL FANTASY called?" (NOTE: TO THIS ONE I REPLIED....> THEY WERE CALLED GOOD!)

My favorite question of all time...

"do you have a shower in your mens room, or will I need to pop home first?"

Gonzo in the Muppet Movie had it all wrong. The Indian film industry is the largest in the world. I'm not sure how it is now, but a few years back it developed over 700 features each year, watched by over 12 million people every day. I'm sure video pirating has eroded much of the audience, but it still is an impressive number. You may be showing Bollywood long after many mainstream U.S. and U.K. theatres are dark.

As for the main thread how about some eg. from the theatre and opera world.

Eugene Onegin (on-yay-gin as in git not 1-gin as in drunk)
"Lez Miserabils"

Serenity (Serendipity)
Riding in Bad Cars with Bad Boys. (I think that customer was foreign.)

"Which one do you want to see."

"What's Rush Hour 2 about?"

"Lemme Check." To Box Office employee: "What's Rush Hour 2 about?"

The employee explained to her that it's a martial arts action film with Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker.

Lady to her kid: "It's that Karate Kid movie with Connie Chung!" The kid ignores her, as he's playing a video game. "Do you want to see Rush Hour 2, it's got Connie Chung! You kids love those Connie Chung movies!"

This lady went on for about FIVE minutes trying to get an affirmative response from her kid, and kept announcing her absolute stupidity in a very loud voice. I felt like explaining the difference between JACKIE CHAN and CONNIE CHUNG but was too busy laughing at her.
