So far, on a different poll, "Love, Elusive" has been winning, but I can't put HTML code on these posts.

Can you describe the movie? It's hard to say which one is the best without knowing a thing about the plot or anything.

It's about a guy who always loses at his love life and no girls like him. He goes for his friend, but she rejects him too.. and so on.

Doesn't sound to deep, or promising...
Could you be a little more detailed?

So just because titles don't "mean" anything, they're not important?

in my opinion, not only do titles comunicate the feeling of your film and somtimes help make it clear who your intended audience is - they also give it an identity. a clever, memorable, or snappy title will stick in peoples minds better and look good on posters.

I agree with Mr. Doughnut, but I'll add that I think the plain and simple fact that the title is what people refer to your movie as makes it extremely important.

i concur with JW (and thus, with myself)

also, i like love, elusive as the title - something interesting about it

Titles are EXTREMELY IMPORTANT.

Say you're making amovie about an axe bearing murderer. What sounds better?

"Night of Blood"
or
"Guy Carrying an Axe."

I vote for Love, Elusive. It sounds like shuffling through library files.
