One of the latest trends to sweep across Twitter is #ThatFilmThinksItsIrish and it has readers laughing away at each other’s ideas, and scratching their heads to come up with one of their own.
The rules seem fairly simple. Take a famous film and tweak the name to give it an Irish feel.
It is not as easy as you might think. The new name has to be close enough to the original so that it is still recognisable as a famous movie, but also with the Irishness added to it to make people laugh.
Some of the best ones on Twitter at the moment include:
