Worst Movie Title
I decided the worst movie title of all time is "The rising"
And I looked it up on IMDB and there is one in development :lol: Basically I hate films titles that begin with the word 'the' and there is some kind of weird trend to just add the word rising to everything Hannibal Rising (2007), Mercury Rising (1998), Dark Rising (2007), Favela Rising (2005), Deep Rising (1998) Blood Moon Rising (2009) Dracula Rising (1993) Venus Rising (1995) Serpent Rising (2009) Valhalla Rising (2009) Black Moon Rising (1986) Dark Water Rising (2006) Dead Moon Rising (2007) rise of the silver surfer t3 : rise of the machines rise of the planet of the apes rise of the cobra rise of the guardians Carlito's Way: Rise to Power Van Wilder 2: The Rise Of Taj And of course, there is also the stuff that is very similar just a synonym. Jupiter Ascending. |

Re: Worst Movie Title
Rise of the Return of the Revenge. Any sequel using a part of that as a subtitle.

Okay, we're hating film titles not necessarily the movie, right?
No offense meant toward Spike Lee, but I hate a few of his titles like: She Hate Me He Got Game (which was a good film) The rest of his titles are alright. There Must Be a Pony (1986) This was a TV-movie starring Elizabeth Taylor. I've heard the story behind the title and it makes sense, but I don't care, I still hate the title. Prêt-à-Porter: This may have a meaning, I don't know. If it does, then the joke's on me, but either way, I hate it. Martha Marcy May Marlene: I've heard the film is good, with Elizabeth Olsen supposedly doing a great job in her role, but it seems the title was just a lot of alliteration. Anyway, just a few. |
Re: Worst Movie Title
You should have titled your thread: Bad Movie Titles Rising. I always think of this movie when the subject of bad titles is brought up, because not only it is a stupid title, but the movie blows: Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever.

Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever is indeed a bad title. Have not seen the movie but know about it. It's funny, just hearing that title for the first time, I thought, "Huh?" I know titles are not ordained to always give you a sense of what the movie is about but that title is a bit off-putting.

Re: Worst Movie Title
To my mind, the most terrible movie titles are those which consist of a whole sentence, for example, 'Who Framed Roger Rabbit' (though I have nothing against the film). Such titles sound so weird!

Re: Worst Movie Title
I'm adding "Flickwish Rising" to the list. Now available on iTunes

Re: Worst Movie Title
Candidate for Worst title ever... "A Merry Friggin' Christmas" ...don't force me to read your title in an accent! I shouldn't have to play a character just to tell my wife what movie I rented!
