What's with the 2005?
#0What's with the 2005?
Posted: 11/26/05 at 12:23amI've tried to find an answer to this, but haven't come across one - what's with the 2005 after the Rent title - on the marquis at the theaters, on imdb...the movie is called "Rent," not "Rent 2005." This dooms a movie that can easily be seen as a period piece as dated in a little more than a month...where did that come from???

Posted: 11/26/05 at 12:26amWell, on IMDb, they list years on all the movies (as some have been re-made). I've never seen this at the theaters before, though. Do all the movies have this? or just Rent?

Posted: 11/26/05 at 12:27amNope - just Rent - it was on the little signs above the entrance to the theaters it was playing in at the multiplex -- it didn't say "Harry Potter 2005"

Posted: 11/26/05 at 12:29amI don't know. I haven't seen that on any of our three movie theatres. Maybe you should ask the people at the theatre? They might know.

Posted: 11/26/05 at 3:26amYeah! I was wondering about that too...at my AMC theater it says "Rent 2005" on the light up thing on the wall.

Posted: 11/26/05 at 3:31amME TOO! When I went to see it on Wed. at the Regal it was Rent, but tonight I went to see Walk The Line at an AMC, and I saw the 2005 and I freaked out about it and my boyfriend told me not to talk to him for 10 min.,lol. I just got pissed about the 2005!

Posted: 11/26/05 at 3:32amIt would mean there has been another film called Rent. However imdb does not show any films called Rent aside from this one.

Posted: 11/26/05 at 10:15amMight be an AMC thing then - it was at the AMC that I saw it also. If I go to another theater I'll have to see. Strange...

Posted: 11/26/05 at 10:49amMine didn't either. That's strange for the rest of you.

Posted: 11/26/05 at 11:32amMaybe the people who put up the movie titles saw the "2005" on imdb.com as well! That would be silly.
I remember days
Or at least I try
But as years go by
They're sort of haze
And the bluest ink
Isn't really sky
And at times I think
I would gladly die
For a day of sky

Posted: 11/26/05 at 2:59pmIt upsets me because it makes it sound like it's a spaceship or a sci-fi movie. RENT 2005, WTF?
