{{quote|''The porno spoof is a fantastic art of film-making. Truly. When you break it down, the porno spoof is really nothing but a ''[[Saturday Night Live]]'' sketch, but with fucking. [[Take That|And any more humor]]. And what's also fascinating about the porno spoof is that most people just quit after they hear the title, as if the title is the climax of the porno spoof experience. It's not. [[Better Than It Sounds|The title is just the foreplay]]. The climax is when you ''watch'' the movie, and find out just who ''is'' [[What's Eating Gilbert Grape|eating Gilbert Grape!]]''|'''[[The Cinema Snob]]'''}}
Line 18 ⟶ 19:
Of course, there's also an [[Inverted Trope]]: don't confuse [[Jennifer Lopez]]' chambermaid character having an affair with her hotel's client in ''Maid in Manhattan'' (2002) with [[Vanessa Del Rio]]'s maid character having an affair with her client (and later his son) in ''Maid in Manhattan'' (1984)...
See also [[Rule 34]]. [[Just for Pun]] in action (hur hur hur). [[Rule of Funny]] is also involved; why have a potentially [[squick]]y actual porn title when you could have one of these and get a small laugh? It's not uncommon for examples to [[Un Installment|inherit a sequel number from the parodied work without a corresponding prequel having ever been made]]. Compare [[The Mockbuster]].
{{examples|Examples (sorted by the media being pornified):}}
== Straight ==
The trope, that is. Not necessarily the sex.
=== Anime & Manga ===▼
* Total Media Agency (known as TMA) loves to do this by producing ''live-action'' Parallel Porn Titles of anime series, such as ''Suzumiya Hahiru no Yuuutsu'' (for ''[[Suzumiya Haruhi]] no Yuuutsu''), ''Faith/stay night'' (for ''[[Fate/stay night]]'') and so forth. These are most often sought after in the community only for the sake of mocking the ugly stars that conflicts terribly with the surprisingly well done (most of the time) cosplay outfits. Oddly enough, none of them are real puns, just twists on the names for the sake of it.
** Perhaps the most unsubtle name from them: ''Cl'''''o'''''nnad'' (For ''[[Clannad (visual novel)
** Not to forget their infamous version of the first arc of ''[[Higurashi no Naku Koro ni]]'', which was mistaken for the real live action movie by many and panned...Yes, they took a depressing delusion filled arc and made it crappy live action ''porn'' while leaving all the scenes intact.
* There's a [[Hentai]] anime titled ''Elfen Laid'', but it has nothing to do with ''[[Elfen Lied]]''.
Line 36 ⟶ 39:
=== Comic Books ===
* Private produced a trilogy of movies based on ''[[Sin City]]'' called (you guessed it) ''Sex City''.
=== Film ===
Line 66 ⟶ 68:
** There's also a series of klismaphilia videos both titled and starring a guy who calls himself "A/The Wizard of Ass"
* ''[[Pirates of the Caribbean]]'' has its own: ''Pirates: Stagnotti's Revenge''. Doesn't sound like a porno to you? Well, it didn't to the managers of at least 6 video stores, who ordered it in bulk, [[What Do You Mean It's Not for Kids?|marked it as a family adventure movie]]. Notably, ''Pirates'' is also one of the highest budget porn films ever made.
*** Surely you mean they were rated Arrrrr?
**** [[Incredibly Lame Pun|That's it you're walking the plank.]]
* ''[[Re-Animator|Hubert Breast, Re-Penetrator]]''. [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0480772/ No, really.]
** The lead actor's filmography is an experiment in these. [http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2070643/ My brains.] ''[[Borat|Horat: The Sexual Learnings of America for Make Benefit Beautiful Nation of Kaksuckistan]]''? Really?
Line 150 ⟶ 152:
* ''[[PDQ Bach]]'' wrote an opera "[[Hansel and Gretel]] and Ted and Alice - An Opera In One Unnatural Act", which was later [[Literary Agent Hypothesis|discovered and presented]] by Peter Shickele.
* ''[[Inkubus Sukkubus]]'' wrote [[Interview with the Vampire|Intercourse With The Vampire]], which sounds like it's about vampires in love if you're not paying attention. Every line contains at least one sexual innuendo, "Come to me like a Ram ... to the slaughter" being one of the tamest lines.
=== Professional Wrestling ===
* Val Venis, [[World Wrestling Entertainment|WWE]]'s resident [[Wrestling Doesn't Pay|wrestling porn star]], seems to have a resume composed entirely of these titles. One angle in particular had him cutting a promo on Ken Shamrock from the set of a movie he was making entitled ''[[Saving Private Ryan|Shaving Ryan's Privates]]'', which co-starred [[Tomboyish Name|Ken's sister Ryan]] (''Shaving Ryan's Privates'' is a real softcore gay porn movie). Another saw him rattle off a [[Long List]] of them when he met Shelton Benjamin's mother backstage, and she couldn't shake the feeling that she knew him from somewhere.
** Talking of wrestling, as [[Wrestlecrap]]'s ''Death of [[WCW]]'' book notes, you could tell wrestling was truly mainstream again when the nWo got a porn parody (Nude World Order).
=== Video Games ===
Line 161:
* The ''[[Street Fighter]]'' games apparently spawned a Japanese porn called ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20120526012028/http://www.outpostnine.com/editorials/sfer.html Street Fucker]''. ''[[X-Men|SeX-Men]]'' also gets an off-hand mention.
** There was also a REALLY bad fighting game for the PC-Engine called ''Strip Fighter II'' ([[Un Installment|there was no Strip Fighter I]]).
** They've made a ''Super Strip Fighter IV'' as well, with WAY better graphics and additional characters; such as [[Big Bad|Succubus]]
* ''[[Super Mario Bros.|Super Hornio Brothers]]''. There was also, apparently, a sequel.
* ''[[Left 4 Dead|Left 4 Head]]''.
Line 177:
** Probably because there's sex scenes already present in all three games.
* ''[[Dance Dance Revolution|Dance Dance Erolution]]'', a series of Japanese gay porn flicks.
=== Western Animation ===
Line 185 ⟶ 184:
* ''[[Scooby Doo]]: The XXX Parody'' is praised for being faithful to the original show - despite lacking the title character.
* ''This Ain't [[The Smurfs]] XXX''. Yes, really.
* ''[[Beavis and
* ''[[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles|Ten Inch Mutant Ninja Turtles]]''
* ''The Flintbones'' and its successor, ''[[The Flintstones]]: A XXX Parody''.
=== Real Life ===
Line 193 ⟶ 192:
** I got one question, "Who's Nailin' [[Sarah Palin|Serra Paylin]]?"
* ''[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1264971/ Zodiac Rapist]'', probably the only porno based (really loosely, admittedly) on a real life [[Serial Killer]].
=== Other ===
* ''[[Hello Kitty|Hello Titty]]'' is completely real and even has a sequel.
== Parodies ==
=== Card Games ===▼
* One of the fictitious anime titles mentioned in the Steve Jackson card game ''[[Chez Geek|Chez Dork]]'' is ''[[Dominion Tank Police|Domination Spank Police]]''.▼
=== Comic Books ===
* In ''[[Transmetropolitan]]'', [[Intrepid Reporter|Spider Jerusalem]]'s enemies try to make people stop taking him seriously by putting out a porn flick called ''I Hump It Here'' (the title of his column being "I Hate It Here").
Line 213 ⟶ 205:
'''Billy''': ?! Those are all porn movie titles!
'''Old Man''': I've been in this cave alone too long... I've forgotten the real list... }}
=== Film ===
Line 227 ⟶ 218:
*** Didn't that collection also include ''The Courtship of Eddie's Finger'', and ''Three Men and a Maybe''?
* That [[Ben Stiller]] film ''[[The Heartbreak Kid]]'' where he had to give Carlos Mencia's character a nudie vid titled ''[[Remember the Titans|Remember the Tight Ones]]''.
* Inverted with ''[[South Park: Bigger, Longer
** Similarly, ''[[Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy]]'' gets it's title from the documentary ''Pornstar: The Legend of [[Ron Jeremy]]''.
* In ''[[Zack and Miri Make a Porno]]'', Zack meets a guy at a party, and learns that he's an actor:
Line 243 ⟶ 234:
{{quote|'''[[Brows Held High|Oancitizen]]''': Please, no ''[[Titus Andronicus|Titties Andronicus]]''? No ''[[Coriolanus|Glory Hole Anus]]''? No ''[[A Midnight Summers Dream|A Midnight Summer's Cream]]''?
'''[[The Cinema Snob]]''': That one actually exists. }}
* ''[[That's My Boy]]''; Mary has a videotape of ''Head in the Class'', telling Donny "it's like ''[[Head of the Class]]'', but with blowjobs. [[Stylistic Suck| It's... gross]]."
=== Literature ===
Line 249 ⟶ 240:
* [[Chuck Palahniuk]]'s novel ''Snuff'' includes an absolute hurricane of parallel porn titles.
** In other words, a [[Incredibly Lame Pun|Hurricane]] [[Hurricane of Puns|Of Porns]]?
=== Live-Action TV ===
Line 284 ⟶ 274:
* ''[[Couplings]]'' included a scholarly dissertation at a dinner party of ''Lesbian Spank Inferno''.
* One episode of ''[[The Kevin Bishop Show]]'' featured a sketch in which [[The BBC]] launched the Red Hot [[Red Button Interactive|Red Button]] service, which included pornographic versions of all your favourite BBC programmes, including [[Match of the Day|Snatch of the Day]], [[Ashes to Ashes|Gashes To Gashes]] and [[Waking the Dead|Wanking The Dead]].
=== Radio ===
* An episode of ''[[Think the Unthinkable]]'' had Sophie going through Jed's DVD collection. As well as another sighting of ''[[Good Will Hunting|Good Will Humping]]'', she correctly surmises that his version of ''[[Free Willy]]'' isn't about a whale.
* Back when they were on the radio, one sketch on ''[[Royal Canadian Air Farce]]'' mentioned that "''Forest Hump'' is not [[Forrest Gump|the movie starring Tom Hanks]]."
▲* One of the fictitious anime titles mentioned in the [[Steve Jackson Games]] card game ''[[Chez Geek|Chez Dork]]'' is ''[[Dominion Tank Police|Domination Spank Police]]''.
=== Video Games ===
Line 306 ⟶ 298:
** [http://www.cracked.com/article_16355_the-10-most-misleadingly-pornographic-movie-titles.html The 10 Most Misleadingly Pornographic Movie Titles] lists movies that could be mistaken for their ''own'' parallel porn title. It even lists which scenes could be kept unchanged.
* [https://web.archive.org/web/20110831075921/http://www.namethatporno.com/aa/aa_home.html Name That Porno] is a collection of those.
* [[Something Awful]].com once had a Photoshop contest where people altered the titles and cover art for ''[[Harry Potter (novel)|Harry Potter]]'' novels, including "Hairy Pooter and the Chamber of Secretions."

* The web series ''Watch Blue Movies'' is about a porn studio that specialises in making these kinds of films. You've got ''[[G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra|G.I. Ho]]'', ''[[The Bourne Identity|The Porn Identity]]'', ''[[Forrest Gump|Forrest Hump]]'' and so on. The first episode is about a porn parody of ''[[The Dark Knight]]'', but no title is given.
* In the [[Gorillaz]] interactive online game ''Plastic Beach'', the player can ask 2D if he's bored and 2D informs the player that he has movies to watch. Some of the titles he lists are this trope. He describes them as "a bit random, but very, very, very watchable."
* [http://www.wikiporno.org/wiki/Best_Porn_Movie_Names WikiPorno's Best Porn Movie Names page] has a whole bunch of these, and it's incomplete. They don't even have the entire Star Whores series listed.
=== Web Comics ===
Line 319 ⟶ 310:
** ''Willy Wanker and the Chocolate Factory'' appears in ''[[Max And Paddys Road To Nowhere]]'' as the porn film Paddy decides to act in to get a bit of extra money. He doesn't find out until too late that it's ''gay'' porn, and [[Your Mileage May Vary]] as to whether [[Hilarity Ensues]].
* ''[[Harry Potter|Perry Hotter]] [http://www.menagea3.net/d/20081118.html Part 16: The Wizard's Staff]'', courtesy of ''[[Ménage à 3]]''.

Line 327 ⟶ 317:
'''Doctor in Porn:''' ''[unzips]'' Take two of ''these'' and call us in the morning.
'''Stewie:''' Oh, now that's not going to help her nymphomania. It's only going to exacerbate it. }}
* In the episode when ''[[The Simpsons (animation)|The Simpsons]]'' go to [[New York City]] to recover Homer's car, Homer talks about the last time he was there -- on a single street, he passed by theaters that showed such (fictitious) pornos including "[[The Godfather|The Godfather's Parts, II]]", ''[[Five Easy Pieces|Five Sleazy Pieces]]'', and, the best of all, ''[[Jeremiah Johnson]]''.
** In another ''Simpsons'' episode, a theater features ''[[Terms of Endearment|Sperms of Endearment]]'' and ''[[
** Another made brief mention of ''[[Doctor Dolittle|Doctor Screwlittle]]''.

* ''[[The Killing Joke|The Drilling Joke]]'' in ''[[Harley Quinn (TV series)|Harley Quinn]]'', a film [[Girl-On-Girl Is Hot|depicting Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy as lovers]]. When watched by the actual Harley and Ivy, they don't like it much - the actress playing Ivy wears leaf-covered lingerie, something the real Ivy thinks is silly.<ref>A [[Mythology Gag]], as Ivy did indeed wear something like this in pre-Crisis comics.</ref>
