Everybody take screen caps of the G.I. Joe Content! | |

Kinda on the fence right now on which one to purchase, i thought about the Wal*Mart one with the cartoon but kinda want the 2-Disc special edition one too.

This is most likely to hide what movie it actually is to help prevent the possiblity of pirating it.
An example would be Harry Potter 5 was called "The Raven". The fake titles seems to have some connection with the film. I believe that "No Reservations" which the 2 characters are working in a kitchen was called "Cooking Lessons".
Transformers was called "Cobra". I'm guessing there is a connection between that and GI Joe (another Hasbro product). Any thoughts...

My thoughts on the whole renaming reels (I also heard that the last reel of the movie was under lock until the first showing) is that it's unneccesary....I know a pirater that had a dvd copy of it the day after it opened! | |
