Long Titles

Generally, long titles for movies don't work. Example - Master and Commander: Far Side of the World. Great movie, bad title. Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl. Have you ever heard of anyone referring to Pirates by it's full title? There is one exception, however, coming up:

Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief.

I really like this title. It makes the movie sound like a 70s funk Parliment rip-off. I might even see it just because of the title.
