Starting with an obvious one, in development and in theaters it was titled "Edge of Tomorrow" but was released on BD/DVD as "Live Die Repeat" or "Live Die Repeat: Edge of Tomorrow"

Another example would be "Zombi 2" released on VHS and DVD under many other names, like "Zombie", "Zombi", "Zombie Flesh Eaters", "Island of the Living Dead" and others.

Another popular one- "Return of the Jedi" was originally titled "Revenge of the Jedi" before Lucas decided to change it.

tut-tut, in development it was known as 'All You Need Is Kill', after the manga.

Dead Alive

For some reason the title Braindead was found to not be as marketable.

It's name is still Edge of Tomorrow - Live Die Repeat is just the tag line.

It's original title however was "All you need is Kill" like the manga it was based on.

It would have sold much more with that title, what were they thinking?
>>
>>63659648
No, it's because Braindead was already the title of a movie.
>>
>>63659991
>Tagline comes before the title

No, they literally changed the name from "Edge of Tomorrow" to "Live Die Repeat/Edge of Tomorrow" because their trailer was confusing as fuck.

Edge of Tomorrow was such a fantastic movie. It's a shame that the marketing team really shit the bed with promoting it.

The movie Stealth is a ripoff of Macross Plus

It may have more of a ring in Japanese.

Why do people keep spouting this meme? How would that be better?

If anything they should've just made the title Live, Die, Repeat in the first place, gets what the movie is about straight across

Because "die hard" is a good title, right?
