Monty Python's Life of Brian started out with the title Jesus Christ--Lust for Glory. Reminds me of how people were calling The Passion of the Christ "Rock 'em Sock 'em Jesus" and "The Jesus Chainsaw Massacre"!

Ladies and Gentlemen, the Fabulous Stains has always stuck with me.
The French Lieutenant's Woman is also a great title.

Okay, I thought of a couple more: Sex, Lies, and Videotape, 'cause it's such a deceptively simple title for such a mind-blowing little flick, and Don't Tell Mom, The Babysitter's Dead, which succeeded in making me think it belonged to a painfully silly movie, when that film is actually one of the last "tween" ones I think had something of a meaningful plot.

Reminds me of how people were calling The Passion of the Christ "Rock 'em Sock 'em Jesus" and "The Jesus Chainsaw Massacre"! Hee. And that reminds of that wonderful short-lived confusion back at FT when people were talking about The Passion of the Christ and Pirates of the Caribbean, both shortened of course to PotC. "What are you talking about, Johnny Depp is NOT in that Mel Gibson movie!!11" Isn't that how "Mel Gibson is insane" started as the FT title for his PotC? Sorry. Carry on.

Can I say I hate the title for At Play in the Fields of the Lord. I know it is based on a book of the same name, and may be a really good movie, but I could never bring myself to watch it. The title sounds too much like what a Ren Faire aficionado would title his Robin Hood King Arthur slash fiction. I saw this movie and the thing I remember most is everyone gets naked, from Kathy Bates to Tom Berenger to Darryl Hannah. Other than that couldn't tell you. The jungle is weird.

My favourite "serious" titile is The Sudden Wealth of the Poor People of Kombach. Something Wicked This Way Comes is a close second.
However, my absolute favourite movie title will probably always be A Nymphoid Barbarian in Dinosaur Hell. I mean, can anything top this? Seriously?

Yet another entry in the Too Long category: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. It's obscure and a bit weird but it fits the movie perfectly. One of my faves. It's dreamy and rambling, as is the movie at times.
