I see they're showing not just Hansel and Gretel at the cinema but Hansel and Gretel Witch Hunters.  Clearly the original title wasn't dramatic enough.  What next? Little Miss Muppet: Dragon Slayer?

And coming soon, we have Jack the Giant Killer which sounds so much more exciting than Jack and the plain old Bean Stalk.  Now I have since found that there is actually an old variation of the tale called Jack the Giant Killer, but you can't tell me that they did not simply pick the most exciting sounding name.  The trouble is, it kind of gives the ending away.
