I can think of at least two things wrong with that title. |

The recent release A Haunted House should have been 'Haunted House' or 'The Haunted House.' A Haunted House just sounds weird.
I Still Know What You Did Last Summer. It's not last summer any more!
Can't Hardly Wait should have been 'Can Hardly Wait.' 'Can Hardly Wait' means that you are having a difficult time waiting. 'Can't Hardly' sounds like a double negative or something and means that he CAN wait.
28 Days Later is NOT a bad title, but I still find it amusing that there was a Sandra Bullock movie called '28 Days' that came out earlier.

I read the title as "bad film titties". Teri Hatcher in Heaven's Prisoners. Like some damn sagging eggs. |

"Man of Steel" Why can't they just call it Superman? What will be sequel be called? "Speeding Bullet?" The Dark Knight/Dark Knight Rises also falls into that catagory. Batman (something) would have sufficed. The Dark Knight/Rises has bothered me for awhile. It wouldn't be as bad if they didn't call the first movie Batman Begins, but why not just continue with "Batman" after that? |

Milk
John Carter
Like Water for Chocolate
Water for Elephants
The Final Destination
Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3-D
any movie with 3-D as part of the title, for that matter
7even and Thir13en Ghosts (for the stupid numbers-for-letters thing)
the Rambo series (for the bizarre sequel numbering)
Curse of the Fly and Curse of the Cat People (for having neither flies nor cat people)

7even and Thir13en Ghosts (for the stupid numbers-for-letters thing) the Rambo series (for the bizarre sequel numbering) Curse of the Fly and Curse of the Cat People (for having neither flies nor cat people) I don't know if this makes it better or worse for you, but Seven was stylized as Se7en not 7even. I jokingly read the title as 'Se-Seven-en. ' |

The massive run on parody titles, like 30 Nights of Paranormal Activity with the Devil Inside the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. Especially when parts of the title aren't even in the movie.

Here's another one: Halloween H20, which I always treated as 'Halloween Water.'

Iron Monkey They should have really changed its name for an American release. To be fair, that title demonstrated the perfect amount of badass and fun the movie delivered. Perhaps, but then my issue might be more-so with how the film was marketed as I recall being in theaters with this great looking action packed martial arts genuinely cool spectacle, capped off with the words "IRON MONKEY" read by a deep voiced narrator, causing the theater to erupt in laughter and ask after if it was a joke. |

"Batman Begins" has to be one of the laziest movie titles of all time. It's especially bad in retrospect since it doesn't fit in with the rest of the trilogy. What? It was the first part of a trilogy where... Batman.. Began. |

It was the first part of a trilogy where... Batman.. Began. Yes, and that was literally the full extent of their thought process, hence "lazy." |

"William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet"
Who else's Romeo and Juliet would it be?
