If You Could Have a Criterion Title Tattooed on Your Penis, Which Would It Be and Why?

Mine would be Jeanne Dielman, 23 Quai du Commerce, 1080, Bruxelles. Why? Cuz I got room for it.

And ladies, don’t feel left out. Tattoo your favorite body part with a Criterion of your choice.

8 1/2

…. but i would add "

Blue – you are such a braggart! Mine would be Symbiopsychotaxiplasm. And it might just fit, too.

Symbiopsychotaxiplasm: Two Takes, cuz i only want it to go halfway down.

The Harder They Come
That Obscure Object of Desire
The Lower Depths
The Sword of Doom
Clean, Shaven

Mike – great minds – and body parts – think alike. I’ll concede that title to you. Make mine Taste of Cherry (no offense meant – it must be getting late…)

Someone’s in a playful mood tonight, huh Blue?… and Joe, and Mike.

The Lady Vanishes… I don’t know what it means, but it sounds funny enough.
The 400 Blows and then in parenthesis (one hopes)
A Night to Remember
The Killer
Man Bites Dog and then in parenthesis (one hopes not (<—rimshot for me))

etc… etc… etc… this is getting too childish even for me.

Haha, Joe, thanks, although it occurs to me that a girl might think the word meant something…wait, I’m putting waaaayy too much though into this!

The Magic Flute

Ace in the Hole

Okay, I apologize for this thread and this post. No more vodka gins for tonight.

Cries and Whispers

The Last Temptation of Christ

I am changing my answer Joe, I’m going to go with Bigger than Life

Bigger Than Life is finally on Criterion? :-o

(Burns Region 2 copy)

Perversity.

OneHundredTwenty Days of Sodom -sodomy will ensue.
Flesh for Frankenstein -I love my plastic meats.
Taste of Cherry -for I only dip during that seasoned time of the month.
For All Mankind -I like all flavors.
Good Morning -better than coffee and donuts.
Do the Right Thing -a little irony to season.
Notorious -you come to the show.
Naked Lunch -self-explanatory.
Empire of Passion

The 39 Steps

?

I’m surprised Peeping Tom didn’t say “Peeping Tom”.

What’s with that, PeepingTom?

—PolarisDiB

If any female sez “Le Cercle Rouge”, that will be the ring with which I will ask her to marry me.

After thinking long and hard about this (HuuurrrrRR!), I have decided on George Washington.

In the off hand chance you’ve not gotten that meme:

—PolarisDiB

OK, I may change to. The Contenders (didn’t realize how many titles might fit until this thread):

All That Heaven Allows
Armageddon
The Atomic Submarine
The Bad Sleep Well
The Bank Dick (nah – too obvious)
Bed and Board
Days of Heaven
Do the Right Thing
The Exterminating Angel
The Fire Within
Forbidden Games
The Furies
Gate of Flesh
Hard Boiled
I Know Where I’m Going
In the Mood for Love
Innocence Unprotected
Ivan the Terrible
Kicking and Screaming
Love in the Afternoon
Magic Flute
Masculin Feminin
The Milky Way
Mr. Thank You
Naked Prey
The Pornographers
Slacker (well, on second thought, maybe not)
Sword of the Beast
That Obscure Object of Desire
To Joy
Under the Volcano
The White Sheik

And the winner is: In the Mood for Love followed closely by Empire of Passion mentioned above.
My, my Blue – I never realized Criterion had so many suggestive titles. And we all thought it was just about the art with this company! Let’s hope any ladies reading this are laughing – not just getting annoyed. Hey, boys will be boys – even auteurs.

WILD STRAWBERRIES…

F for FAKE…because (hold your laughter) it’s the “hard” truth wrapped in a magical lie. cough But really, F for FAKE is my favourite Criterion, so it’s gotta be the title to tattoo down there regardless of the multiple inferences (be it complimentary or self-deprecating).

Alternate porn title/easy joke: F for F*CK.

Sorry, Mr. Welles.

Edit: And to complete the shooting of myself in the foot, here’s the Criterion cover that’s a hundred times more hilarious now that it’s being posted in this thread.

Joke’s on me. ahem Good night.

Hmm, no one’s claimed Picnic at Hanging Rock?

I got one for Dimitris. Brief Encounter. Hahaha.

you all know i’m THE Armageddon, so get over it ;)

Bad Timing
Vengeance is Mine

I’m surprised no one has mentioned:
Playtime
Spellbound
Notorious
King of Kings

And by Armageddon, you are a failed attempt at entertainment. A waste.

haha…oh my…Blue, this group will need your wit and charm so hele on down to the film office now
And there’s something like 24 episodes of a Korean soap being filmed near you too !

So, Blue: How drunk were you when you started this thread? :)

(It’s actually turned out pretty hilarious.)

Sorry, just thought of another one.

OPENING NIGHT

EDIT: Also, BLACK ORPHEUS may be appropriate for some.

ALSO, I THINK IT WOULD BE COOL IF A WOMAN GOT “THRONE OF BLOOD” TATTOOED ABOVE HER VAGINA

No body said Hunger. The american guys could put Made in USA and a woman Pandora’s Box ahahaha

I was expecting someone to type “White Mane” or the “Red Balloon”

I can tell you what it wouldn’t be – Rushmore.
