Reviews of Movies I Haven't Seen, Based Solely On Their Title Volume 2
G
A hip, streety savvy look at the 'real' world of Sesame Street. We follow a young Letter G as he tries to survive life as a teen on the streets, and what happens when he hits it big-time. The booze, the drugs, the women - the story we've never seen before. In memory of the letter J.
Prime
An exciting and thought provoking look at advanced mathematics, and their possible relation to alien life. A young Indiana Jones looking mathematician is ostracized from the scientific world when he claims to have discovered that prime numbers are not numbers at all - but in fact aliens sent here to conquer the planet and turn it over to the hippies. When a shocking turn of events prove him right, however, it is up to him and his "grim" sidekick to eliminate both the invaders AND the hippies. Mathematically eliminate.
Jarhead
The creator of classic horror film The Fly returns with this brilliant, yet slightly eccentric sequel. A scientist in charge of developing a teleportation device discovers the horrifying side of science when a testing mistake leaves him with the head of a glass canning jar - and the jar with the body of a man. The plot escalates when both vie for the affection of his wife, played by Drew Barrymore, only to discover that she is, in fact, as hideously ugly as Xeno was always telling people she was.
Get Rich or Die Tryin'
An introspective look at the effect of greed in our society as we follow a young inventor who is desperately trying to get rich. Unfortunately, he dies in the attempt.

Why, I'm sure Jarhead is going to be a fair, balanced, and a not-at-all bitter/cynical retelling of the historical events surrounding the First Gulf War.
You mean Jarhead was an Iraqi scientist trying to create the the perfect suicide bombers, "Jihad Olives - the olive whose taste blows you away."
I love these!
I inhaled my soup when I read the review of "G". Quite funny. :)
