Even a question mark could not have saved that one! ;)Lindsay Blakehttp://www.iamnotastalker.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7396103173176295698.post-76536464038469572832012-03-23T15:20:29.614-04:002012-03-23T15:20:29.614-04:00I actually had heard about that "bad luck&quo...I actually had heard about that "bad luck" notion, but thanks for sharing. I don't remember where I read about it, though I recall "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" being used as an example, along with the Reese Witherspoon movie "How Do You Know." Silly superstition is right. To be a bit more blunt, I find it ridiculous. If the title of your film is a question, I suggest — gasp! — including a question mark. My new goal in life is to move to Hollywood and write a winning screenplay for a movie called "Why Does This Title Have No Question Mark." That title, without the proper punctuation — oh, the irony! ;)Owenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03450382853813148886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7396103173176295698.post-40798423049963170712012-03-23T14:58:03.419-04:002012-03-23T14:58:03.419-04:00While doing some research on "Who Framed Roge...While doing some research on "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" today, I came across a blurb about the flick in "The Worldwide Guide to Movie Locations" which stated, "No, there is no question mark, as it's considered bad luck in a film title." I had never heard that bit of trivia before and found it interesting. Thought you might, too. :) Producers of "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" obviously did not heed that bad luck warning and included a question mark in their title. The flick went on to win five Academy Awards, so it seems to be a silly superstition. ;)Lindsay Blakehttp://www.iamnotastalker.comnoreply@blogger.com
