funny comments in marketing.

Yesterday in my marketing class, my professor was talking about... market research? (I think that's what he was talking) Anyways... My professor put up a powerpoint slide with a list of movie titles. These movie titles were changed before the release of the movie because they did some research and found a title that would be more appealing. For example the original title for Rocky was The Contender. As the original titles were placed on the board people in the class were shouting out there guesses of what the movie was. Well... This is what flashed on the screen:
A Boy's Life

Any creative guesses as to what movie this turned into? Some guy in our class yelled out: Brokeback Mountain! hahahaha everyone in the class was laughing and our professor couldn't help but smile. We were all disappointed when the movie was E.T.
