I'll start with a classic: in French "the Hangover"has been changed to "Very bad trip"

Brazilian translation studios butchered this one too. It became Se Beber, Não Case (If Drinking, Don't Marry).

In the meantime the ones in Portugal translated it literally as A Ressaca, showing that the "creativity" of the above was 100% unnecessary.
