If you've been on Twitter today, you might have realised that the #1MDBMovies tag has been on the top trending list all day…
Coincidentally, this writer always mixes up 1MDB (1Malaysia Development Berhad) and IMDb (Internet Movie Database) because she cannot differentiate the number 1 and the letter 'I'.
… And Twitter users went ALL OUT with a barrage of witty reworked movie titles inspired by the likes of 1MDB, PM Najib, the first lady, and everything else they can think of. Have a laugh at some of our favourites, accompanied by the movies they reference:
1. Who needs the new Fantastic Four movie when you have this team of super-people to 'vanquish' the rise of living costs?
