How likely is it that they’re married and they don’t know each other's taste in movies?!

Also, what do you mean by “wet couples”?

Actually, if they are lover and get married each other, they will know each other’s taste. But I'm suppose to write this funny story.

“Wet couples” means couple falls in love.

Actually, if they are lovers and get married, [STRIKE]each other,[/STRIKE] they will know each other’s tastes. But I'm supposed to write this funny story.

Why do you say "supposed to"? Who is asking you to write it?

“Wet couples” means a couple [STRIKE]falls[/STRIKE] in love.

That doesn't work in English. Don't use it.

Maybe "wet couple" will catch on. (Probably not.)

 

[Tarheel]

That's weird.

Try:

Emma and Jerry are a married couple who like watching movies, but their tastes differ.

It's fine that they love each other, but that's not truly relevant here.

 

[Tarheel]

Jerry thinks it's a fantastic movie.

That doesn't make sense. He hasn't seen the movie yet, and he doesn't even know what kind of movie it is.

 

[chunchuntthn]

Why do you say "supposed to"? Who is asking you to write it?


That doesn't work in English. Don't use it.

" Wet couples", I myself think this word. So that doesn't work in English.
" supposed to", I will try referring online to replace this word.

This is my rewrite.
Emma and Jerry are a married couple who love each other very much. Both also like watching movies, but there is a little problem with them. Emma loves horror movies; she likes watching blood, awful things and bad endings. On the other hand, Jerry loves romantic movies and hates horror movies. He likes romantic scenes. However, they don’t know they have different taste in movies.

One day, Emma comes home and says to Jerry “Jerry, there is a new movie that named Loving and remembering. We must watch it”. Jerry doesn’t know this is a horror movie, he just thinks that this is a horror movie. Five minutes into the movie, Jerry finds it really unbearable. He stands up and goes the toilet and throws up there. He comes back and says “Emma, I don’t think that I can watch a movie like that again”.

A few days later, Jerry comes home and says to Emma “Emma you have to come with me to the cinema. There is this amazing movie, and we must go to see it”. Emma thinks that it is a fantastic movie, and they go to the cinema together. Emma doesn’t know this is a romantic movie. Five minutes Jerry thinks about this for a moment and answers “I think we will have to wait for a romantic horror movie to come out.

Three things. One, you didn't need to write another version. Two, the word also means in addition. Three, there are many of the same problems with that one as with the other one.

A couple more things. This illustrates why I advise people to post just one paragraph at a time. Finally, all that for such a lame punch line?

 

[Tarheel]

" Wet couples", I myself think this word.

Say:

I thought that up myself.

 

[Tarheel]

" supposed to", I will try referring online to replace this word.

One day, Emma comes home and [STRIKE]invites Jerry to watch a new movie. Jerry thinks that it is a fantastic movie and then[/STRIKE] suggests that they go to the cinema together. Jerry thinks the film title sounds fantastic but he [STRIKE]don’t[/STRIKE] doesn't know [STRIKE]this[/STRIKE] it is a horror movie. Five minutes after [STRIKE]watching movies[/STRIKE] the film starts, Jerry [STRIKE]is really unbearable[/STRIKE] can't bear it any more. He [STRIKE]stands up and[/STRIKE] goes to the toilet and throws up. Later, he says “Emma, I don’t think that I can watch [STRIKE]the[/STRIKE] a movie like that again”.

A few days later, Jerry comes home and [STRIKE]talk[/STRIKE] says to Emma, “Emma, you have to come [STRIKE]with me to go[/STRIKE] to the cinema with me. There is an amazing movie on; we must watch it”. Emma thinks that [STRIKE]it is a[/STRIKE] the title sounds fantastic [STRIKE]movie[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]and[/STRIKE] so they go. [STRIKE]to the cinema together.[/STRIKE] Emma [STRIKE]don’t[/STRIKE] doesn't know this is a romantic movie but five minutes [STRIKE]later[/STRIKE] after it starts, [STRIKE]Emma[/STRIKE] she [STRIKE]stands up[/STRIKE] goes to the bathroom and throws up. Later, she says “Jerry, I don’t think that I can watch [STRIKE]the[/STRIKE] a movie like [STRIKE]it[/STRIKE] that again”. Jerry thinks about this for a moment, [STRIKE]and[/STRIKE] then [STRIKE]answers[/STRIKE] says “I think we will have to wait for a romantic horror [STRIKE]love[/STRIKE] movie."

See above. You definitely need to work on your third person singular verb endings.

Ems, it is as confusing as ever. Jerry, who doesn't like horror films, sees the title and thinks it's not a horror film? What kind of a title would that be? Nightmare on Elm Street? (Maybe not.) It's simply unworkable.

If you are producing a horror film you are going to want a title that will attract people interested in that genre. Then there's the artwork. People will not mistake one for the other.
