Weird Movie Titles:week, "The Men Who Stare at Goats"

by Jonathan Crow


This week, "The Men Who Stare at Goats" starring George Clooney opens in theaters nationwide. And however critics and audiences react to the flick, one thing's for sure: it really does have a memorable name.

A great title can make a movie. After all, the only reason "Snakes on a Plane" attracted Samuel L. Jackson and became a focus of overwhelming internet hype was because of its ridiculously awesome title. On the other hand, "The Shawshank Redemption" proved to be such a puzzling moniker that moviegoers stayed away. It was only after the film was released on video that it found an audience and became recognized as a classic.
