west and story are synonyms

The one thing Hollywood does better than anywhere else is naming movies.

Except they get renamed in translation here and it's always stupid. Case in point, Snakes on a Plane. Which pretty much *demanded* a literal translation. Cobras no Avião! It's perfect, it's simple, it's... not happening.

Instead, we get Serpentes a Bordo [literally, Serpents on Board], and the movie loses 99% of its coolness.

Bah.

stupid brazilian movie market
