However a later rule (which, FWIW, in any set of Rules I've experienced takes precedence over an earlier rule) as I quoted says if the DVD title is different from the title in the credits then the Title is (as you say) still taken from the credits but put in the 'Original Title' field and the new title from the DVD has precedence.

That is a complete misuse of the modified title rule.  The example (There's Something MORE About Mary) given is a clear indication of its intent.

FWIW I (obviously) totally disagree and believe it is clearly intended to be used in the way I suggested. I don't see anyone fighting to have Fantastic 4: Rise of the Silver Surfer renamed to 4: Rise of the Silver Surfer (how it is in the credits and, FWIW, how it was submitted by the production company for UK classifiaction).
This is, as is often pointed out, DVD Profiler not Film Profiler... when someone looks for a DVD from your wishlist they'll be searching for the title on the box, not the credits.

Why would they make it Two | Way Stretch and not Two | Way | Stretch?

Maybe I'm way off, but if I remember the film correctly it's about a group of convicts that sneak out of prison, commit a robbery, and then sneak back in, thereby having the perfect alibi.

If that's correct, then the line could be thought of as representing the prison wall - they're partly inside and partly outside the prison.

Just a thought...

There is no slash on the cover.

Just perhaps i have found numerous of your posts insulting, I believe I have hinted as much several times...have I not?

And you think it's appropriate to answer a serious, noninsulting post with an insulting reply just because you may feel some previous post have been insulting. Oh yeah, that's a good way to improve the discussion climate and encourage a serious exchange of opinions... 

Gunnar:

You come across as a nit-picker to me, so do some others who have posted in this thread. A user makes a comment a which is clear and understandable somebody just HAS to make a inane comment to cause a discussion, disenssion or trouble. Sorry guy, that is my view, if you find it insulting I am sorry, but that's the way I see it from here.

Tomatoe/Tomato or if you prefer Tomatoe|Tomato

Two-Way, such as in Two-way street is a hyphenated word. Two-way meaning traffic flowing in both directions.

Stretch - slang for time in prison.

Two-Way Stretch meaning time being served in prison and out of prison (during the robbery). Traffic flowing in both directions  .

The slash used on the front cover is used in lieu of the hyphen.

Could be, but those words are not hyphenated elsewhere. Not in the credits on the back or in the title screen. So I'd say that is your interpretation. And as such it's just as good as anyone else's, but I wouldn't state it as a fact.

I'm stating an opinion...not fact. BYW...The Region 1 cover is hyphenated .
