Movie Title Challenge
-
@wacha Jan 2022
Another FAWM, another movie title challenge!
I'm a big movie buff nd have a rather large collection of movies. I often take inspiration from movies; titles, characters, plots etc.
If you are interested in taking part let me know and I'll draw a movie title for you at random. It doesn't matter if you have seen the movie or
even know what it's about, honestly, sometimes it's more fun if you don't.
I'll assign the first round of titles on January 30th and then will try to check in every few days after that to assign titles. If you play once and want to play again just let me know and I'll assign you another movie.
Tag the song #movietitlechallenge -
@loveonamixtape Jan 2022
Yes, I'd love to do this again! My #movietitlechallenge song last FAWM was one of my favorites from last year.
-
@vivalarayna Jan 2022
Me, please!! Your prompt ended up being one of my favorite writes from 50/90 and my first posted song this summer! Very excited to see what this round inspires.
-
@robhowell Jan 2022
Sounds like a good idea for inspiration, I’d like to please take part!
-
@ayehahmur Jan 2022
I'm up for this again, please.
-
@emkaydeebee Jan 2022
I’d like to do this this year please!
-
-
@audrey Jan 2022
Yes, count me in. I loved the song this challenge inspired me to write last year. It was in a genre I wouldn't have thought of writing in on my own.
-
@ajna1960 Jan 2022
I'm in please :) It was a lot of fun last year :)

@cblack Jan 2022
Sign me up. :)
-
@audrey Jan 2022
I love hearing what people come up with for this challenge, like when @bernie1954 wrote a great comedy song for the movie title The Shining.

-
@tamsnumber4 Jan 2022
I'll give it a go.....
-
@spazsquatch Jan 2022
I'm interested, sorta. I think I pulled "The Loved Ones" for 50/90 and since the movie has been on my list to watch for years, I decided I. would watch the film before writing a song... it's still on my list to see.
So. hit me and my penance is that I'll need to incorporate both into the same song, seen or not. -
@dreamscuba Jan 2022
ok...go for it...thanks
-
@jinxcat Jan 2022
Oh why not? I'll give it a go!
-
@conorg Jan 2022
I failed miserably last year to find inspiration from my assigned movie title, but willing to give it another go this year!
-
@kristi Jan 2022
I'll try this again. It's hit or miss for me, but fun to see what happens! Thanks!

Amazing! Love it. I don't know what a Sandlot is, and I'm not going to find out either, so expect something entirely disconnected.
-
@the3queens Jan 2022
I'm in!
-
@wacha Jan 2022
@ayehahmur sometimes that makes for the best songs!
@the3queens - Silent Night, Deadly Night -
@wylddandelyon Jan 2022
Sure, pick me a movie title!
-
@robhowell Jan 2022
Thanks @wachal!
I haven’t seen any of the Friday the 13th movies, let alone the sixth one but I have been meaning to watch the first one for years!
I haven’t decided yet whether I will write the song just using the title as influence, or if I’ll actually watch some of the films. Maybe I’ll watch the first one to give me some ideas then I’ll decide if I want to watch any more of them :) -
@writeandwrong Jan 2022
Thanks, @wacha , I'm deathly allergic to cats and they always choose me to come rub up against...always. They know I'm allergic to them! LOL

-
@the3queens Jan 2022
Last year I got Odd Thomas. I didn't like the movie but loved the actor. Then I found out he had died in a freak accident the previous year. I ended up watching several movies by him and writing a song I loved that included a little bit from all the movies.
-
@musicsongwriter Jan 2022
Sorry but horror and alike is something I'm trying to avoid. Is there any chance for something "safer" please.
-
@angiemariesings Jan 2022

Thanks so much @wacha ! This was super fun (once I'd got over the fact that the film I was assigned is about a sex offender*). Here's my song: https://fawm.org/songs/125647/

@wacha Thanks so much for this challenge. Just like for last year's movie title challenge, I think I might have just written my favourite FAWM song this year. And I got to watch a pretty good movie too. This is my take on the movie title challenge for the movie Donnie Darko (even though I was assigned S.Darko). :)

@flw3rch1ld Feb 2022
Ooo may I have a movie title?
-
@seemanski Feb 2022
Any reason why I can't use my movie for another movie? Struggled to come up with something so far but now I'm rewatching aliens and "Creature Of Destruction" could work for that. Also I really really really want to include the lyric "Get away from her you bitch" somehow
-
-
@musicsongwriter Feb 2022
Sorry everybody. Not only I'm not into horrors but I also don't like most thrillers... So I came up with a general idea of music to a movie "Challenges". Not sure if movie like this exists but if it did, here is my music lol:

@seemanski Feb 2022
Ok my song about Aliens for the title Creature of Destruction is done
https://fawm.org/songs/128823/ -
@wacha Feb 2022
Newest round of titles, here you go!
@cindyrella - Disappearance
@didib - Sleepwalkers
@pianoonthepatio - Army of Darkness
@mardeycranbleson - Beaches
@berni1954 - Gretel & Hansel -
@ayehahmur Feb 2022
I'm a bit slow starting this year, but my first one on the slate is my #movietitlechallenge entry. The prompt was a film called The Sandlot, which might be a heartwarming tale of an American kids' baseball team (I don't know, I've not watched it). Anyway, the song is about the magic of a child's inner imaginative life and the weird things they do to try and help when they feel that something's wrong in the family.
