Guess Who's Serving Guess What for Dinner sounds better to me.

Ok, that does it, I hate this thread.

Well, considering only 20% of men and 30% of women didn't find the name too objectionable to see the movie, it made a tidy $114 million worldwide, not bad for 1984.  Of course, you wouldn't admit to a bit of exageration eh?

WHen I worked at **** we did testing on sush things as titles & movies as well.  We hbeld up "Romancing the Stone" as the example of a bad movie title.  80% percent of men and 70% of the women hated the name and refused to see the movie because of the title. (Michael Douglas wanted the title to change as well) The only reason the title stayed because nobody could come up with another.  

The Worse Movie title & your Alternate Title. stanton heck wrote: What movie do you think had the worse movie title? My #1 choice is "Romancing the Stone". I think that movie would of made more money if it had a better title to me would of been "Amazon Tresure", "Joan in the Jungle"

Way to take a great original title and turn it into trite and boring.
