Dan Gould Posted August 20, 2020 Report Share Posted August 20, 2020 Saw this on Twitter and thought I'd see what this crowd comes up with. From the original tweet: take an ad slogan, put it in the past tense, and now you have a cryptic tagline for a new hit movie. #pasttenseaslogan The best I've thought of: Left Home Without It Virginia Was For Lovers what do you got?

ejp626 Posted August 20, 2020 Report Share Posted August 20, 2020 Did she or didn't she? Every kiss began with Kay What could brown have done for you? (UPS) Did you hear me then? Took a licking and kept on ticking The Quality Was slogan is choice. Is there a current slogan like "You've got a good thing going?" I did some sleuthing and didn't see anything, perhaps because it is too generic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Gould Posted August 21, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2020 I like that We Left the Light on For You because it fits a horror movie/haunted hotel genre perfectly. Some of these others are amusing for the twist in meaning but don't have obvious movie genres to be actual taglines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
