Gladiator was the only case where Ridley Scott should have had exclusive ownership of that title but in all other cases I think it is lazy and stupid.


You lose respect for a movie if it has an unoriginal title.

Inglorious Bastards and Inglorious Basterds. I don't know what this is. Homage?

Despite the terrible cover shown here (what's going on with Billy Crystal's legs?!?), this is actually a pretty good movie with a fantastic car chase near the end.

Not 100% the same, but just shows complete lack of creativity and makes it confusing as hell:

Sahara, Sahara, Sahara, etc. ...

Black Sheep (Chris Farley) and Black Sheep (the one with killer sheep)

both are on Cinemax this month and its really confusing

The new one is apparently spelled "Inglourious Basterds", just to compound that frustration for you.

I thought that's how they were spelling it but when I went into the Inglorious bastards thread to clarify using the teaser poster (red one with bullet hole in it) it was spelled "Inglorious Bastards". I didn't know what to think.

Independence Day

Phase IV the ant movie and Phase IV the crappy Dean Cain movie.

Copycat (2 horror flick have this title)
Ed Gein (again 2 horror flicks)
Lover's Lane (a few movies have this title)
The Protector (Jackie Chan & Tony Jaa)
Flashpoint (Dragon Dynasty and a Porno)

Flashpoint is also the name of modern western film with Treat Williams and Kris Kristofferson.

Another one is Pulse with one of the Lawrence brothers and Cliff De Young from 88.

And to make it even more confusing, both star Emmanuelle Beart.

That's been a favorite of mine since it came out.
