On the naming of things

Clash of the Titans: Titans. Will. Clash.

Only, you know. Too much clash, not enough titans.

And by not enough, I mean NONE AT ALL.

Which wasn't even really the main problem of this movie, it's just something I find funny. Considering I stink at coming up with titles for things, it's good to know that somewhere out there, there are people who are JUST AS BAD. And they probably get paid for it.

Really, though, there's a fine balance between telling too much in your title, and having one that isn't related at all to your story. You have to make it sound meaningful without it being too cheesy. It needs to have panache.

You should never, in one notable example that I've heard about, name a story "Loofah". This is pretty much the cardinal rule of titles.

I'm...not sure what else I wanted to say.

Clash of the Titans was ridiculous and funny, but not quite as great as I'd hoped (same as a lot of recent movies). I would say my standards have risen, but considering I think it's time to go back and rewatch Dune....yeah. Standards? What standards?

That's okay with me.
