best fictional movie title referenced in Seinfeld

either Chunnel or Agent Zero

Man, I hate Wikipedia editors. This article has been deleted?

Strong delete Send it to Seinfeld-pedia, if there is one. This is a lot like List of Peter Griffin's jobs, in that it's a cute little in-universe article that would be great for a wiki specifically devoted to the show, but has no place whatsoever in a general-interest encyclopedia.

It's a fair enough point, I suppose. But if you're going to hold wikipedia to such standards, there's enough editing work to be done to keep a fleet of temps busy for a year. Deleting this isn't altogether wrongheaded, but it's pretty high-and-mighty.

Which is to say: Man, I hate Wikipedia editors.

Also: Seinfeld is of pretty gotdamn general interest, last I checked.

slightly annoyed that these are all posters as if the movies were made in 2013 and not the mid-'90s, but still fun: http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/08/16/revisiting-the-seinfeld-movie-posters?utm_campaign=fbposts&utm_source=facebook

^^ agreed, good casting though.

Mostly, but I wouldn't have Lars von Trier direct Rochelle, Rochelle, nor would I cast Anne Hathaway in it - you need a foreigner there

Rochelle, Rochelle is probably directed by Julio Medem and with Paz de la Huerta in the lead role.

Paz de la Huerta is technically American, but I might still green light that proposal

Yeah, I feel like they missed what "kind" of movie Rochelle, Rochelle was standing in for.

They definitely went too highbrow with a few of these--I guess I could see Malick's Ponce de Leon, but Cronenberg's Prognosis Negative ignores the kind of 90s genre thriller they were getting at (specifically Malice? Extreme Measures?), and really, Rochelle, Rochelle would make much more sense as a Zalman King production than a Von Trier.

(though how they would have gotten a Bette Midler musical out of either Rochelle, Rochelle idk)

On the Seinfeld Wiki page--which seems to be the source for the original poll--they suggest that Rochelle, Rochelle is modeled on the Emmanuelle films. I was thinking of something like I Am Curious, Yellow (haven't seen it, always wanted to), although from what I've read, that's also very political. Definitely late-'60s, early-'70s softcore art-porn, though, not Lars von Trier. (Great poster, but they should have worked "from Milan to Minsk" into the tagline.)

Prognosis Negative made me think of Flatliners for some reason

The world travel aspect of Rochelle, Rochelle does call to mind the Emmanuelle films, but Emmanuelle is a wiser, more assertive character than I imagine Rochelle to be. I see Rochelle as more like the innocent girl in director Just Jaeckin's The Story of O (1975). And there are cinematic echoes of a Rochelle type going up to such films as Eréndira (1983). Basically I see Rochelle, Rochelle as a mid '70s to mid '80s film.

It's funny that the title seems to allude to Rachel, Rachel (1968), which is not much of an erotic journey imo.
