I think Darth Gonzo is trying to say that the wording of the statement was “X,Y,Z, and untitled A,” and that this wording implies that X, Y, and Z are therefore the titles of the movies they describe. And then the further assumption is that if the statement sounds that way, reality is that way too, because the words must have been chosen to mirror it.
In my opinion, though, DG is wrong to think that most people, whether in press conferences or even when writing press releases, speak that precisely. Even in material prepped and vetted by pr people and the legal staff, IMO it’s much more like 50-50 whether grammatically exacting interpretations like this are more likely to reveal “hidden” secrets or just yield false positives. (Also, as far as I can see, it seems untrue that the grammar of that statement implies that X is named X, or that Y is named Y— the most you could conclude is that X, Y, and Z *have* names, not that these *are* the names. ) DG, is this what you meant? |
