films with inappropriate titles?

[Raebell]

Raiders of the Lost Ark.

Should be Raiders of the Found Ark, they only raided it when they knew where it was.

 

[kelli kannibal]

what ones can you think of?

 

[Amandasaur!]

Sorry but I disagree. The reason the book is called I Am Legend is because

Spoiler

the Will Smith character is the last human alive, and when he is eventually captured by the vampires they are intrigued by him and gaze at him - because to them he is a creature of myth.

Star Wars

It's not the stars who are at war with each other, but the people on the planets around them.

 

[Atsuko_Chan]

Dawn of the Dead.

The film took place during the morning, noon, evening and night.

 

[Lili.anne.]

Krakatoa: East of Java. It wasn't.

North-West Passage: never appeared in the movie.

Tomorrow Never Dies: allegedly the result of a typo.

North by Northwest: who knows?

Watchmen: there is no superhero group called The Watchmen.

Trainspotting: explained in the book but not in the film (AFAIK)

Halloween 3: not part of the series itself.

 

[loving_girl9009]

Monster: I was very disappointed in this because I expected a rip-roaring movie about a hairy, wild beast with blood dripping from its fangs.

Snatch: Again, very disappointing because I was expecting an expose of female genitalia.

Free Willy: I was expecting an 18-rated sex romp about a rent boy who gives away his trade over August bank holiday weekend

Deep Throat: The most disappointing. I took my parents and children to see this expecting a blistering political thriller.

 

[Island Princess]

The Mothman Prophesies. Did not involve anyone dressed up in a giant moth-suit.

 

[Janu42 {?uotable}]

One Million Years BC.
Dinosaurs were long dead and people hadn't arrived yet.

 

[Guinea Saurus Rex]

Close Encounters of the Third Kind...some people were taken away by the aliens, that makes it a close encounter of the fourth kind.

 

[Sweet Daddy Dill]

'Night Of The Bloody Apes'; there's only one ape, he's half-human, and he's not bloody.

 

[Cristian R.]

Metropolis - not one mention of Superman anywhere!

M - I was expecting "James Bond's boss: The early years". Disgusting rip off!!!

The Untouchables - Two of them are "touchable". They even admit this in the film!

Highlander - He's FRENCH for gawRAB sake

X-Men - Some of them are still men!!!

 

[☮❤:)]

The Crying Game - At no point did anyone in the film play a game involving weeping.

American Gangster - Should have been called African-American Gangster

 

[someone122]

The Greatest Story Ever Told

I've heard better stories

 

[prettylady0241]

One I saw in another thread:

LOTR: The Return of the King. Doesn't even mention Elvis.

 

[Beezy]

Blazing Saddles - no leather caught fire.

On Golden Pond - most of the film was set on land.

Big Daddy - Shirley Crabtree was nowhere to be seen.

 

[hyp44]

Agree with Halloween 3 !! strange film! theres no Donald Pleasance !!perhaps he was on holiday!

 

[Pha]

Babe: Its NOT sexy!!

 

[#10]

I like this game

The Negotiator - Poor grammer THERE ARE TWO OF THEM! It should be called The Negatiators

 

[Black Keys]

The Great Escape - Most of them were caught, only a couple actually escaped, not that great then.
