| I've just come up with a review in which each word is a film title. Was wondering if anyone had ever achieved this before? |

| I'm struggling to think of combinations that could make that work, but it's making my brain hurt. I'll wait for yours. |

"Big Jaws Unforgiven. Enough!"
Hows that for ya?
I think I'll submit that.
Edit: Sounds like a cool contest. If not as reviews but in the Contest Fourum. Some could be found nonsense or vague.

Almost any word with a significant meaning is a film title, so I would say this probably does happen extremely often.  |

I would say that this probably hardly ever happens, if at all, hence the intital question.
But for other nit-pickers I will rephrase the question:
Has anyone ever intentionally come up with a review in which each word is a film title? |

| Intentionally, not me. But I'm still pretty certain that it happens very often, as there are so many single-word film titles. For example, in my first test, "Big fish, scared people", all four words are film titles. It's more likely in reviews with only nouns and adjectives. |

I have never "intentionally" done this, BiggerBoat. I don't have time right now to go through all of my films to see if I have "unintentionally" (the closest I came was "Indiana Lincoln, Temple Doomed," but I couldn't find "Temple" as a one-word film title). Those pesky articles, prepostitions, and modifiers keep getting in the way.  Anyway, I found a funny article about One-word movie titles you might want to read.  |

Hey, Stalean, that article is by Peter Howell of The Toronto Star. It was an article by him that led me to FWFR almost four years ago! |

| Okay, it's been approved. It's for Excalibur and is sitting there for your consideration right now. Anyone else done one of these yet? |

A link would be a helpful courtesy, big boy!
