21 movie titles worse than Quantum Of Solace
Here is Den of Geek's quick list of 21 titles that wish they had a name as good as Quantum Of Solace. All are real, and feel free to add your own in the comments box...
* Hell Comes To Frogtown
* Maniac Nurses Find Ecstacy
* Smilla’s Sense Of Snow
* Gigli (how do you pronounce it?)
* Octopussy
* Snatch
* Under Siege 2: Dark Territory (in fact, virtually every recent Segal film)
* Half Past Dead
* Live Free Or Die Hard (no wonder they called it Die Hard 4.0 over here)
* I Dismember Mama
* Cannibal Women In The Avocado Jungle of Death
* Dude, Where’s My Car
* The Man with the Smallest Penis in Existence and the Electron Microscope Technician Who Loved Him (but we'd kinda like to see it)
* Jesse James Meets Frankenstein's Daughter
* Mr Magorium’s Wonder Emporium (because we couldn't afford the rights to Willy Wonka)
* The Sisterhood Of The Traveling Pants (might work in the US, sounds unhygienic in Britain)
* Divine Secrets Of The Ya-Ya Sisterhood (WTF?)
* How Stella Got Her Groove Back (the most man-resistant title in the world?)
* I Heart Huckabees (it works until you have to say it)
* Batman Forever (sounds like a bloody chant, not a title)
* The Pursuit Of Happyness (for the spelling)
Your turn - head for the comments, and let's see if we can make some more!

The Pursuit of Happyness at least had a reason for it. It was the way it was spelt on the outside of his kids daycare centre, he always wanted them to change it, and it's one of the things that pushed him to get a better job, better money to send him to a good school and provide for him. So he can learn to spell Happiness right. Apart from that though, it's a really good film.
Nobody is allowed to nominated Electric Boogaloo - best title ever!

I watched Pursuit of Happyness, watched their justification, still wanted to wring their necks for putting it on the poster. I, er, had real problems with the film too :-)
Five words for you: Chopper Chicks in Zombie Town.
- Blondes Have More Guns
- Bride Of Killer Nerd
- Buttcrack
- Fatty Drives The Bus
- Ferocious Female Freedom Fighters
- Macabre Pair Of Shorts
- Nymphoid Barbarian In Dinosaur Hell
- Pterodactyl Woman From Beverlely Hills
- Rabid Grannies
- Rock N' Roll Space Patrol Action Is Go!
- Seduction of a Nerd
All culled lovingly from the Troma website. God bless them. Also, I'd like to mention Breakin' 2: Elec... never mind.
Action Jackson. Bad title. Worse film
Eegah! (the title, not the exclamation) is a great one. Any of your old AIP sci-fi movies, most of Roger Corman's back catalogue, and Charles Band's lesser works.
The Gingerdead Man!
Attack of the 50-foot Woman
One Hour Photo (for lack of a hyphen)
Who Is Harry Kellerman and Why Is He Saying Those Terrible Things About Me?

oh poo
damn this comments section...
damn it to HELL!
Porn Of The Dead
Pervirella
Ptang Yang Kipperbang is a great film though...
Have you just popped to my house and copied out my entire dvd collection?
Better titles for Live Free Or Die Hard:
OLD HABITS DIE HARD
DIE HARDERER
DIE HARDEST
DYING IS HARD
WALK HARD
I'm just sayin'.
Oh oh oh. I forgot. Lucky Number Slevin.
That's like a really bad day at the Sun offices.
Kingdom of the Crystal Skull? Can't believe we've not had a George Lucas suggestion yet...
I've seen Slap Her, She's French. It's awful - it's got Piper Thingy from Coyote Ugly in it. The title's the best thing about it.
Oh, and 'Slap her, she's French'....
what about I (heart) Huckabees..worst title ever
A film came out several years ago called At Play in the Fields of the Lord. Never seen it but the title really sticks in my mind..
Can't believe we left Lucky Number Slevin off the list. Shame on us. And Fatty Drives A Bus is pure genius...
I'm not overly excited by Quality of Service, or whatever they've called it. But then it's better than heading down the Segal route of taking words from previous movies and sticking them together. You only die again twice, The Spy who had consensual sex with me, Dr. Golden No, From a View to a profitable franchise...and so on...
Agreed - Fatty Drives The Bus is the CLEAR winner.
"The Man with the Smallest Penis in Existence and the Electron Microscope Technician Who Loved Him" - this is clearly sheer unadulterated genius! Anyway as for worst - Eragon. It's like "Dragon". Only with an "E". Do you see.
Boo, Zino and the Snurks!
Can Hieronymus Merkin Ever Forget Mercy Humppe and Find True Happiness?
Surf Nazis Must Die
Destroy All Monsters!
"Thou Shalt Not Kill... Except..." has to be one of the worst titles ever.
Rambo: First Blood Part Two
When titles get too long the movie often bombs. (Not always I realize, but often.)
