Movie Titles That Should Have Been Rethought

Post Reply New Topic

The MST3K version, or the raw, unriffed version?

The original version. Only a few minutes. It was bad, very, very, bad.

The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living and Became Mixed-Up Zombies
Can Hieronymus Merkin Ever Forget Mercy Humppe and Find True Happiness?
Phffft!
Night of the Day of the Dawn of the Son of the Bride of the Return of the Revenge of the Terror of the Attack of the Evil, Mutant, Hellbound, Flesh-Eating Subhumanoid Zombified Living Dead, Part 3
Hawmps!
The Men Who Stare At Goats [anybody with any brains at all, knows it should have been titled "No Goats, No Glory." ]
Ffolkes
Soggy Penis Syndrome
A Vagina for Christmas

Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971) should've been called : Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. that way it would've been true to the book

Charlie and the Chocoalte Factory (2005) should've been called: Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. that way burton could have his different view of it

"Batman And Robin" the worst Batman movie ever should be renamed "How Batman Became Gay"

Batman 1989 should've been renamed "The Joker" since Batman was only a supporting actor. for those of you who don't believe me, Jack Nicholson was top billed over michael keaton

Snakes on a Plane

Red Eye {movie was awesome, I still have my fingers crossed for a sequel}

Let Me In

Drag Me to Hell

The Town {movie was brilliant, title sucked}

Season of the Witch

Transformers 3: Dark Side of the Moon

Spider-Man 3

Quantum of Solace

Drive Angry {this movie should have a more interesting title}

The Eagle

Two films which failed to stir up interest by pinning it all on the boring name of the protagonist when the source material had a better title.

"John Carter". Should have been called "A Princess of Mars" after the Edgar Rice Burroughs novel it's based on. Come on, people.

"Jack Reacher." Adapted from "One Shot" by Lee Child, which isn't the greatest title ever but it's better than "insert generic action protagonist name here."

Stanley Kramer himself thought he shoulda named his comedy, "It's a mad, mad, mad, mad, MAD world." (additional emphasized word)

Hari Puttar - I know what you're thinking, but this is a rip-off of Home Alone.

There Will Be Blood (implies the premise of a revenge horror movie, not a great film by Paul Thomas Anderson)

The Social Network (the title is so generic IMO)

The Artist (great homage to the silent movie era, but why this title?)

The Gift (great psychological thriller well worth a watch, but the title is IMO so generic)

Godzilla (both versions, we get the idea people in charge of marketing lol )

King Kong (both versions for the same reason as Godzilla, mind you)

Who could forget The Room?

Considered to be one of the worst movies of all time,
IMO it should be retitled "Seemingly Smart People Acting Stupid."
