Pick 20 movies/anime/video games/comic books/literary works/TV shows and put their summaries from Better than it Sounds and WITHOUT CHEATING have your friends guess.
1. A spinoff of a kids' show, with all the sex and blood left out of said predecessor added back in, plus some extra for good measure. Follows the adventures of a team comprising a loudmouth immortal who pretends to be an American, an annoying undead doctor, a quiet Japanese scientist, an even quieter tourist information office worker, and an ex-police officer. They fight aliens. And they're all bisexual. Torchwood - picara
2. Opinionated young woman meets snob and doesn't like him, until it turns out that she does. Pride & Prejudice - acostilow
3. European thieves are defeated by man without shoes. Die Hard - acostilow
4. Laser tag is Serious Business, Real Time Strategy games even more so. Ender's Game - picara
5. The weird life and misadventures of a drunk who owns a bookshop, his Cloudcuckoolander assistant/punching bag and their best (and only) friend. Black Books - picara
6. A widowed man tries to redeem a corrupt organization, but his father won't have it; meanwhile, his brother is breaking his heart and his sister is having marital problems. It's a comedy, with a heaping helping of Large Ham. Arrested Development - picara
7. Following the death of her entire family, a young girl moves off the continent and learns how to not be a spoiled brat by growing plants. The Secret Garden - acostilow
8. A man who may or may not be terminally ill steals his roommate's identity in order to fulfill his childhood dream, which will almost certainly put his coworkers' lives in danger. Later, he seduces a woman with no intention of revealing his true identity to her, then proves that he isn't mature enough to cope with his sibling-rivalry issues. In the end, the protagonist fulfills his dream while his roommate commits suicide in an incinerator. Gattaca - picara
9. A super-strong cheerleader, a Jewish computer nerd witch, a goofy slacker, and the school librarian fight undead (mostly) monsters of the week while their personal lives turn into a soap opera. Beloved people die with depressing regularity. Buffy the Vampire Slayer - picara
10. A scientist gives poor movie recommendations to three men with nothing better to do, but they still take constant breaks to play pretend. MST3K - picara
11. A Five Man Band of criminals. They Fight Crime. Leverage - acostilow
12. Space vampires target a flooded city, while a group of Earthlings adopt two aliens. Stargate Atlantis - picara
13. A man tells his bored teenaged children stories about himself when he was younger. Evidently there's nothing good on TV in the future. How I Met Your Mother - picara
14. A squadron of insane soldiers try to not die in the war. Paradoxical bureaucracy gets in the way of that. Catch-22 - picara
15. A bunch of Americans living abroad in the 1950s talk and act like it's the 1970s, and crack a lot of jokes about death. M*A*S*H - acostilow
16. Ordinary man from an ordinary planet (which has recently been torn down) goes galaxy- and dimension-hopping with a hot scientist, a perpetually unhappy robot, an alcoholic daredevil, and a narcissist with two heads and three arms. Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy - picara
17. Women try escaping their boring lives - and later the law - even when the only way out is a cliff. Thelma & Louise - picara
18. LOL Aspergers. The Big Bang Theory - acostilow
19. A man beats himself up. Lots of people think this is a good idea. Fight Club - picara
20. Nomadic tribes travel through the Middle East and North Africa, enduring all kinds of hardships before finally coming to the Promised Land. In the sequel, a Pretty Cool Guy tells everyone how cool it is to be nice to each other but is executed by The Empire, comes Back From The Dead, and Ascends To A Higher Plane Of Existence. In the Distant Finale of the sequel, everyone dies. This is considered to be a positive ending. The Bible - acostilow
