Bored Cinephiles Invent Hilarious #QuarantineAMovie Meme on Twitter
As it so often does, Jimmy Fallon is to blame.
The Tonight Show host personally put out a call on Twitter yesterday for people to “change the title of a movie to make it fit with quarantining,” and to do it with the hashtag #QuarantineAMovie so the results could possibly be shared on television.

That one really hurts, because we’re already worrying that our summer vacation is actually going to be canceled. Maybe things will work out quickly. If not, let’s hope Jimmy Fallon has more ideas for hashtag games we can play.
