When Titles Go Wrong

SnakeReally bad movies may be a dime a dozen, but really bad movie titles are surprisingly rare. Nonetheless, two upcoming films - one that's definitely happening, and one that seems to be little more than a rumor - have the potential to make bad movie title history. How studios decided to finance projects with such names is beyond me. But hey, I guess that's why I'm not a studio chief.

Snakes on a Plane - From the director of Cellular (?!?) comes this Samuel L. Jackson (?!?) vehicle about an assasin who, in order to kill a witness on a plane, opens up a crate full of snakes. No, I'm not kidding. I feel like I could spend hours making jokes about this film. The good people over at the Internet Movie Database's forums, however, have more than done the job for me.

Brutal Deluxe - If there's a God, I'm sure He wants to see this movie. Seriously. This simply has to happen.
