Heeeelarious. I came across this book due to Reddit.. and I'm so glad I bought it. It's a very fast read.. about 10 minutes.. and I was giggling the whole way through. I passed it around the office and my colleagues got a great laugh out of it. Of course "Ron Man" seemed to be the overall favorite. Great job Austin! Kudos to you.. Next step: You should figure out how to parlay this into a fun board game... I'd definitely buy it! The book is beautifully illustrated and if you know just the slightest bit about pop-culture you'll get the movies to which are being referred. Congrats Austin! Homerun!

In Movie Title Typos, artist Austin Light removes just one letter from a well-known movie title to inspire a surprising and hilarious visual scenario. There's Obocop (a robotic police officer works through his PTSD by playing smooth jazz), T. (a boy meets a jewelry-clad alien who pities fools), Harry Otter, The Princess and the Fro, Finding Emo, Pup Fiction, and many more. A massive viral hit when he first posted sketches of the work online (1.2 million hits in the first 6 hours), Light has created new full-color illustrations for all, with the majority of the book's content never before seen on the Web. Here is a parallel universe glimpse at could-have-been films possibly better—definitely funnier—than the originals.

Bought this after seeing it featured all over the interwebs, and it does not disappoint. Even more illustrations than the author originally posted to Reddit. Just wish there was a larger version of this book (physical size, not # of pages) - If my copy of this book has feelings, it probably feels somewhat inadequate compared to my other coffee table books. There, there, book. It's not the size that matters, it's the motion of the artist's strokes...

I keep this on my coffee table and everyone loves flipping through it. Such a fun idea and still makes me giggle when I see Ron Man and Pup Fiction. I will definitely be buying the shirts!

My wife was telling me about the funny drawings a guy she went to high school with was posting online. After checking them out I purchased the book. This is a lot of fun to read! Great art and fun concept. Follow Austin Light!

So funny! Love the little details and creativity. Can't wait for an encore and some children's books for the family.... combination of art and wit at its best!

This book is hilarious. I love the whole idea behind it. I couldn't put it down. Wonderful for a few chuckles.

A really fun book that will be great to share with friends and keep on my coffee table. The art is cute and funny and the modified movie descriptions are really clever and charming too. If anything it just feels a little short though

I came across this book entirely by chance, looking for a present for my friend for Christmas. I had a good giggle when I came across this, as we'll often be on Skype Messenger and he is alarmingly adept at typos! So this seemed like a rather fun little addition to his Christmas present. We've had a lot of laughs looking through it!

Da gibt es nicht viel zu sagen. Sehr lustige Zeichnungen (wenn man drauf steht) ;-)
Sicher ein gutes Weihnachtsgeschenk und optimal als Lesematerial auf dem Klo.
