Sunday Night Triva: Tag Lines

I thought I would give you another easy one. I got the inspiration on this one from a blog I read called "eh?" You can find a link to it on the right side of this page. In this one match the movie with the taglines (sometimes called slogans). These are those memorable (or not), tantalizing short phrases used by film studios and the marketing people to advertise and sell a movie in an effort to sum up the plot, or themes of a film. (stoled that definition from her, too.) So, name the movie and tell me which tag line goes with it.

A)
B)
C)
D)
E)
F)
Tag Lines:
1) The new police recruits. Call them slobs. Call them jerks. Call them gross. - Just don't call them when you're in trouble.
2) This Is a Hell of a Way To Make a Living.
3) Just Because They Serve You... Doesn't Mean They Like You.
4) The story of a man who had everything, but found something more.
5) Nice planet. We'll take it!
6) He's not crazy. He's just written that way.

Well I've identified the films (Waterworld, Goblet of Fire, Spirited Away, Two Towers, Finding Neverland and Children of Men). Buuut after that I get confused.

"Nice Planet, we'll take it" is Mars Attacks, methinks.

You're kidding right. None of these seem to match the movies. I'll give it a try though.

A) Water World goes with 5) Nice planet. We'll take it!

B) Harry Potter Goblet of Fire goes with 3) Just because they serve you...doesn't mean they like you.

C)

D) Lord of the Rings goes with 2) This is a hell of a way to make a living.

E) Finding Neverland (hmmmmm, Johnny Depp) goes with 6) He's not crazy. He's just written that way.

F) Children of Men (just watched that today) goes with 4) The story of a man who had everything, but found something more.

I don't know, they just don't work very well but we'll see.

B) Harry Potter and the Goblet Of Fire
C) Spirited Away
D) Lord Of The Rings: The Two Towers
E) Finding Neverland
F) Children Of Men

Ninquelosse actually got one of them! Whoo Hoo!
Nice Planet, We'll Take It IS from Mars Attacks. None of the taglines are from the movies pictured.

Just a little April Fool's Joke.

Bonus points if you can tell me what movies they are from.

Oh brother, you're a bother! I worked so hard at this one too. I'm easily taken with April Fools jokes, I guess since I'm such a fool. :o)

You did good, I had to go back and check to make sure it wasn't from the movie.
