33 most boring movie titles ever

We're celebrating movies with boring titles, in honour of The Adjustment Bureau, a movie about one lawyer's hour-long search for a yellow legal pad. But will the ink in his red pen hold out?

The most important thing about a movie is its title: it'll likely be the tipping point to whether a fence-sitter will splash their cash on a ticket. Here is a good example of an eye-catching movie title: Die Hard. I'll bet you my life savings no one ever saw a poster of a film called Die Hard and said, "Hmm, that doesn't sound very awesome." Never happened.

Yet every year, dozens and dozens of films are labelled with awful, forgettable and just plain boring titles. Though The Adjustment Bureau is really rather good - as are some of the other movies below - it's saddled with such a sadface of a title, you can't help but wonder how well it'd perform at the box office if it were called FATE IS COMING TO KILL YOU.

It's Bourne meets Inception meets the tedium of your actual job!
