Title for a "Hannibal" movie?

Seeing how "Hannibal"'s already done, what would you call a movie based on the Carthaginian general Hannibal?

My thoughts:

"The General"
"Enemy of Rome" (doesn't work)
"Hannibal the Conqueror" (Nah)

It's hard as hell... what title would sell?

Lol, Groucho.

A title emphasizing the elphants would be so ridiculous. Yes, I know you were joking.

And no, Nuanoid. You can't release two movies with the same title that close to one another.

Looks like a Hannibal the Conqueror is already in the works. Not sure how accurate this is though.

The *Real* Hannibal.

...you know... sorta like The Real Cancun...

We'll make it like a reality show about Hannibal on spring break in the Ivory Coast or something with lots of hot chicks in bikinis.

...and it'll co-star Tara Reid.




I've just made myself quite ill.

DAMN YOU ALL!

God knows how far I am into writing a Hannibal script and THESE NEWS BASH my face!

GOD NO!

I curse Vin Diesel and his skills in acting. MY SCRIPT is MUCH BETTER than Leckie's NOVEL OF LIES.

*Sobbing* please, God No! Eloi, ELOI!

They even STOLE MY TITLE.

I am angry.

Keep going, they have two Alexander the Great movies. Why not two Hannibal movies? Surely your movie can draw someone better than Vin Diesel, the retarded turtle.

Yeah, I'll submit it to the competing studio, I just did a little research on the net. Denzel W wants to make one too. I'll send it to him.

/Turns on HEAT mode/ Vin Diesel, brother....you are going down.
