Jimmy Fallon asked people to ‘describe a movie badly’ – mission accomplished for these 17
One of the regular features of The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon is his hashtag round-up, in which he reads out the best entries form a hashtag challenge set by Jimmy himself on Twitter.
This week’s had a film theme – or ‘movie’, if you’re feeling particularly American.
It’s Hashtags time! Take a movie and give it a funny or weird summary, and tag it with #DescribeAMovieBadly. Could be on the show!
