I also doubt that they'll make it as terrifying and weird as the original. Plus, no Rowan Atkinson.

For true. Seriously, the Nicholas Roeg film is brilliant, in how it incorporates the two big things you need for horror- cruelty and loss of control- in a film that is obviously still for children, in a way that you don't see often in all-ages horror films. This new film has quite a row to hoe if it wants to come close... although del Toro's involvement gives me hope.

"I Am Vengeance" is an acceptable enough title so of course they had to ruin it with the subtitle. Why do movies do that?

The worst thing about Mr. Vengeance is they threw away the translation of Chinjeolhan geumjassi and just called it Lady Vengeance to tie in with the first movie.

Doubly weird since they didn’t do that with old boy. I guess sympathy for daddy vengeance would have been a bit of a spoiler

“Kind Hearted Ms. Geum-ja” is Lady Vengeance’s ‘real’ title. Just seems an odd thing to do to a film that doesn’t need to be renamed to get the niche market to be interested. It’s not a huge deal of course, it’s just always struck me as a bit cheap, especially as the titles are kinda polar opposites.

All this talk got me to dig out my German Blu-Ray of the 1984 James Garner movie "Tank" and wonder why the German title is Der Tank and not Der Panzer.

I mean, you could also make the title a little snappier like "Ms. Kind Heart" or something like that. "Lady Vengeance" is kind of a lazy name for a movie that's part of the Vengeance Trilogy. They might as well have named Old Boy "Old Vengeance".
