Over at Fishwrap (aka National Schismatic Reporter) there is a project to help the Nuns on the Bus rename their hagiographical movie/documentary!
I can’t think of a better project for readers here. After all, we have done so little to help the Nuns, especially after their diligent promotion of Obamacare!
Have you notice how quiet Sr. Simone Campbell has been since the “AFFORDABLE”Care Act has revealed its true colors to the American public? It passed and now people are learning what’s in it. Where’s she been?!? She should be taking victory laps. Right?
Back to the ACTION ITEM!
Some of the suggestions in their combox, over there at NSR, include:
- Sisters of Eve-l
- Nunsense.
- Bad habits and loose canons.
- A Habit of Irrelevance.
- And then there were Nun.
That last one has potential.
Check it out. There is also a VIDEO to get those creative juices flowing!

“A Confederacy of Nunces”
Well, it can’t be “March of the Penguins” because (1) that’s already taken, and (2) they don’t wear habits.
Howzabout:
“Sisters of Anarchy” (Their habit can be leather MC vests over their pant suit jacket)
“The Sisters of Schism”
“The Sisters of Perpetual Schism”
“The Sisters of Heresy”
“The Poor Sisters of Confusion”

None in the World, in honor of the book that inaugurated their bleak decline.
1. Sisters Are Doin’ It for Themselves (and not the Church)
2. Sister ActUP.
3. The Nunny Bunnies
4. Hard Habits to Break

7. Where Sisters Go, Trouble Follows
“I married Him so I could fix Him”
Okay, my vote is for Sonshine135’s “I married Him so I could fix Him.” That is brilliant!
The Sisterhood of the Travelling Rants…….
We’re Just Not That Into You………
The Girls Who Played With Fire……….
Too many to choose
And the winner is:
Nun Left

If you click thru the links to the actual sisters’ film / suggestion website, you will see a note “Thank you for helping us create a soulful, spirited, rockin’ title!’
These poor people are really, really in need of prayers….

“Nuns Gone Wild”
“National Lampoon’s Sisters Vacation”
“RV – Part Deux”
“Breaking Badder”
Years ago I read a most amusing book called “1066 and all That” (a pocket history of England!!!).
There is a section called “Warwick the Kingmaker” with an ‘application form’ for anyone wanting to become King and one question reads:-
Name of mother……..(if nun, write none!)
I’ve never forgotten it!
By the way the Earl of Warwick was known as “Warwick the Kingmaker” because he truly had a hand in that business.
Catching Fire: One Group’s Journey to Hell
“We have met the Enemy, and he is us.”
I am just floored. The readers have outdone themselves. “Then there were nun,” and “I married Him so I could fix Him,” get my votes. I am still on the floor, laughing and crying.
There are nun so blind…
“Two Thousand Nun: A Bus Odyssey”
“Nun the Wiser”
“Nun Dare Call It Treason”
‘Sisters Axed’?
I totally agree with NoraLee9. The imagination and intelligence of the comments on this thread are worthy of Fr. Z. You all are SO GOOD! If the devil is a proud sprite who cannot endure to be mocked, this website must be an awful misery to him.
I think my vote goes to unavoceman. At “Do Dah” I entirely lost it.
What-da-ya mean they need a title for their movie? I heard it’s being released in theaters this weekend nationwide. It’s called “American Hustle”.
The Devil Wears Pantsuits
How about these titles…
Fast & Furious
Roman Canonball Run
Prayer Shawl-shank Redemption
The Birdcage
Rosary Chain-Saw Massacre
The Departed
Titanic
The Joke is not Nunny Anymore
Much Ado about Nunthing
Nun and Nunner
Can’t help myself…
– NUN BuS
-Buckle Up Sister
-The Logic on the Bus Goes Round and Round.
Truthfully, the most appropriate theme song for the documentary would have to be Weird Al Yankovic’s “Another One Rides the Bus”. In fact he sang it on his very first TV appearance in 1981 on Tom Snyder’s show. Yes. Weird Al is a prophet…and why not, now that Duck Dynasty is the voice of Christian Conscience? Check it out:

@MrTipsNZ:
Yours is better, but an alternative: Sisterhood of the Traveling Pantsuits!
Nuns, Busted.
“It’s called “American Hustle””
LOL!
..Or better yet, how about “American Hustle in Bustles”?
I notice that the moderators there at the Reporter have closed off comments. I gather they didn’t care much for some of the input.
