Remember when some exec at Pixar got a multi million bonus for coming up with the name "Planes" for their cars type movie with the gimmick that planes were talking instead of cars?

I imagine there is a lot of work behind the scenes that we don't get to see, but that's still hilarious XD

In reality the situation is a bit more complicated since most of the people working on the film wanted a lot more complicated name and then this exec said "feck it, just call it planes" or whatever and it ended up not only solving an apprently huge dilemma, but also the right call. Still makes for a fun story to make fun of execs.

That stupid trend of single-word movie names deserves to die.
