Since the first post of this thread, it was evident that there is a double meaning to RED:
hmmm… Quoting T!M: Quote:
What's the title for our purposes for this movie? Is it Red or RED? Keep in mind that those letters are an acronym for "Retired, Extremely Dangerous". …odd how I see no “evidence” in the first post of this thread that T!M was eluding to any double meaning to RED. As far as I can tell his question was in regards to capitalization of the acronym: Should it be Red or RED? The only confusion appears to be yours, which is evidenced by the results of the poll  . | | | | My WebGenDVD online Collection |

Just a minor question to be able to estimate the relevance of this topic:
Does the database distinguish the capitalization of titles, or is it all the same Red, RED or red?
Does anyone know? Absolutely no difference for the database, so all this discussion is totally irrilevant. The only important thing is that the title is what you see on cover and the original title is written without dots.  | | | | Updated List of Accepted Birth Years |

So just to get this straight: We're having a 4-page + discussion on local preferences? Great! Some of us REALLY need to get laid. | | | It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!

Some of us REALLY need to get laid. No one forced you to join the discussion or even read the thread. If you need to get laid...by all means do so . | | | | My WebGenDVD online Collection |

Completely irrelevant, amigo...outside the Rules I can't agree based on what has been said so far, the rules say to CHECK capitilisation of Titles (Which is not the same as use standard capitilisation as it is elsewhere within the rules for other fields) this helps with checking that the capitilisation is correct. |

I agree! Me too. | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.
