So a few weeks back, I posted this from FlavorWire: “Awesome Infographic: Music Metaphors, Simplified.” Here’s the graph:

I asked “How about something similar for movies? Suggestions?” We got a lot. Here are a few:

Jon Molly said… Perdition: Road

Mike Dachuk said… The Future – Back, The Planet of the Apes – Return

emily said… Oz: Yellow Brick Road

Jon Molly said… Come to think of it, the better one for movies might just be a chart demonstrating who goes where. To whit -

Mr. Deeds : Town
Mr. Smith : Washington
Medea : Jail
Bill and Ted : Hell
Earnest : Camp/Jail/School/Africa

But most folks stuck with the music theme and there were some terrific ones:

Ben said… Desert: Horse with no name

chuck said… Out of here: fast car

Mike Dachuk said… Your Door – The Long and Winding Road

danielt3 said… Just “Leaving” – On a Jet Plane

flipswitch5point said… To fall down at your door: Walk 500 miles then 500 more

acrobatsausages said… Destination: Off the rails / Means: Crazy Train

David Blackstone said… She: In. How: Bathroom window.

J said… Out of: Hell. Like a: Bat.

VooDooStevie said… Let’s not forget:

I think we’ve just scratched the surface both re music and movies.
