I've often lamented the lack of interesting or original tag lines for
movies these days.  It's like thinking of a quote of dialog from a
current movie, there just aren't any worth remembering because dialog
is just so banal.

This one is the bottom of the barrel and horribly shop-worn:

"Sex, drugs and Rock 'n Roll"

From this movie:  http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1153101/

The movies were better, as were the taglines.

"This Is Cinerama"... puts you in the picture!

Some taglines are good enough to become gaglines.  These originals
come quickly to mind:

    "In space, no one can hear you scream."
    "You'll believe a man can fly."
    "Be afraid.  Be very afraid."

Meanwhile, Google delivers an "official" Top-list.  Interesting that
nearly all are horror or sciFi:

1. In space no one can hear you scream.
2. Houston, we have a problem.
3. They're back.
4. We are not alone.
5. Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water.
6. Who ya gonna call?
7. A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...
8. Be afraid. Be very afraid.
9. The list is life.
10. Earth. It was fun while it lasted.

The plotline is even worse than the tagline.  (wondering just what is
an "anal bass player.")

"When lead singer Jimmy Taranto dumps his girlfriend Candy then his
rock band Gutter Filth, Candy decides to take his place in the band.
Together with anal bass player GB, cross-dressing drummer Dee and
Jennifer their loyal manager, they begin a journey to stardom. While
their success eclipses Jimmy's, Candy still can't find the true love
she is looking for. But sometimes the things you want are right in
front of you."
