Twitter game puts Lawrence in the movies
For all its inanity and insanity, Twitter still has the power to unite strangers in pursuit of a greater good. On this particular Monday, in this particular town, that common purpose is puns.
Lawrence's Will Averill got the heaviest day of the week off to a light start with the hashtag #moviesinLFK. The rules are simple: Take a movie title, add some Lawrence flair, tweet it (using the hashtag, so we can repost our favorites below).
It's stupid. It's fun. And it transforms Monday into punday, something we can all get behind.
