Legally, as in she's going to Law School!!

It just hit me today as I was taking it out of the case. I saw it on the theaters when it first came out but I didn't get the play on words of the world legally, I just thought she was SO blonde-acting, she was legally blonde


Has this happened to you? Something that should be so obvious and you don't get it right away with a title?

Grimfarrow

Which begs the question: are you blonde?

To stay on topic...

Shanghai Noon... like, Shang-"High Noon," a western movie phrase.

Debbie Does Dallas. I get it now! HAHA! And all this time I thought it was Dallas Drake, not the city!

TheMadMonk

Also, legally blond as take-off on legally blind.

And wouldn't Dallas Drake have been about 5 years old when Debbie does Dallas came out? (Yeah, I'm a hockey fan).

I felt like an idiot when I just recently realized that South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut was a penis reference.
It's embarrasing for a mind as dirty as mine to totally miss a joke like that for YEARS!!
I always just thought it was only a reference to a movie length South Park with no censoring.

On a more obvious note: American Pie?

Alan Smithee

"Debbie Does Dallas" is misleading because the movie's about her raising money to go to Dallas, but ends before she actually goes.
I'm still involved with the lawsuit over "Good Will Hunting", which was to have been the title of my documentary about hunting at Goodwill stores for 8-track tapes and CED videodiscs.

Well, I'm even worse than you are because I didn't realize this until YOU posted it. I am a blonde female, so alas, if the shoe fits.........

Cygnet74

you, uh, don't remember what to do if the shoe fits....... do you?

How about this one, which obviously went over the heads of millions of dumb teenagers who paid to see it:


I STILL KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER

which should be called:

I KNOW WHAT YOU DID TWO SUMMERS AGO

since the freakin' movie supposedly takes place a YEAR after the events of the first.

Dumb money-grubbing Hollywood execs.

Jackskeleton

....wow this thread makes baby jesus want to destroy the world.

UAIOE

Well, the whole point of these two movies was to watch Jennifer Love Hewitt run around in low cut shirts and scream alot...i doubt any thought was really put into 100% cohesive script between movies.

My friend and i both caught onto the fact that the first movie ended in the year 1999 as opposed to 1998 and somehow the events of the 2nd movie were taking place at the exact same time as most of the first movie.

Holy sh*tty script writing, Batman!

DeputyDave

Doh! That never occurred to me. Now i feel like a Ijit!

marty888

I can't recall what the original title was, but it was turned down by the ratings board as being "too offensive" - so our heroes re-submitted the movie with the new title which is much "dirtier" than the original, but of course went completely over the heads of hose dodos.

Chalk one up for the good guys.

das Monkey

Yeah ... I love Parker and Stone's mentality on the censors: whenever they reject something, rewrite it so it's more offensive ... 90% of the time, they'll let it through without noticing.

Am I the only one who knows it's a play on Legally Blind?!? Because nobody here has even mentioned that yet....
