Last week or so I flipped over to The Disney Channel and they were just starting up one of their made-for-TV-movies. It starred Rhea Perlmann and was basically a reworking of the Faust story by way of Danm Yankees. However, the sport in question had been changed to Ice Hockey. I only watched a little bit of it (very energetic opening sequence to the tune of “Hot, Hot, Hot”, right up until Perlmann comes on stage), but what stayed with me was the absolutely perfect title they had given the thing:
“H-E-Double-Hockey-Sticks.”
I hope they gave whoever came up with that title a raise.
Any other favorite titles, especially where the work (book, movie, whatever) is sub-par?
