MPM Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Everyone knows that movie companies are INSANE when it comes to piracy. Even with new movies, they try to prevent people from knowing what each movie is. For big movies, they often give them a code name, and sometimes they are very interesting. I have with me, a list of code named movies that are currently playing at my theater. We are a large theater that plays new movies, not a discount or independant film place. So! The person who guesses the most of the movies wins a price. Ummm.... Max stake at the duel area ;) Angle fish: Brotherly Love: Love and Freedom: Flower: bee movie - Medellin Wizard's Curse: Barrie: The Gathering: Red Impression: Underground: Pseudo code named- these movies have their actual names on the can, but their code name is placed nearby. Furio: Shel: Sally: And this is the one that I found the most amusing one, it came out over a year ago. Tiny Dancer: Good luck! ~M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenin64 Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Wait, if everyone thinks the code name is the name of the movie, then can't they just think they are pirating that movie? I'm slightly confused. Or, do they only have the code name on the thing the film comes in for you movie theater employees? Command the Murderous Chalices!

Harrington Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 At first I thought The Phantom Menace was a code name.... turns out they kept it lol. Dumbest name for a movie ever. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MPM Posted November 29, 2007 Author Share Posted November 29, 2007 Sorry for the delay, currenly the only one guessed was Bee movie :P The reason they code name them, is because if you are going to steal a box of reels of a movie, your going to look for a specific movie. Code names make you open up, find the right one, and head out. And yes, movie stealing happens A LOT ~M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MPM Posted November 29, 2007 Author Share Posted November 29, 2007 Nope to all :| To help clear some things out, enchanted and happyfeet, do not have a code name. I've never heard of The Darjeeling Limited and Lavie en rose. And finally, we don't have Love in the time of cholera and war and peace. I won't link you to my theater's site, but this has a list of movies that are currently out, and many of ours are on there. http://movies.yahoo.com/feature/thisweekend.html ~M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
