Discussion Main / IntentionallyAwkwardTitle

Even though it can no longer be on the trope page, this entry was MOW-nominated so it would be bad to lose it forever. I'm putting it here for posterity:

• Did you see Saw? Why yes, I saw ''Saw''. I saw ''Saw II''. I saw ''Saw II'', too. Yes, but did you see ''Saw III''? No, I had to pay.
  • "I saw Saw III." "I saw Saw III too. one" kaboom
  • But I don't know what I saw ''Saw IV'' for.
    • We, French-speaking people, cannot wait to see Sausage (Saw VI), and Socks (Saw VII, with a hair on the tongue). And "Saw" itself is pronounced in French like an older word for "stupid" (sot).
  • But did you see the film Once? No, I saw Saw II two times. No, I mean did you see the film Once? No, I saw it twice.
    • You saw It twice?
      • No, I only saw it once.
  • What were you doing on a playground?
    • I saw half of Saw, but I'd rather saw a see-saw in half, than have to see Saw again.
    • I think that's a trap in Saw 3D.
    • 'No, I haven't saw ''Saw''.' 'You probably wouldn't enjoy it. It's very saucy.'
  • Saw's equivalent in French is Déjà vu, which literally translates to "already seen." So, As-tu déjà vu Déjà vu? Oui, je l'ai Déjà vu.
    • The French Canadian title is "Decadence", which actually makes it sound even more graphic than it really is.

No funny text for the link back to the main page on Troper Tales? Unfortunately, I can't think of anything....

Removed from the comics section, because it wasn't intentionally awkward:

• Giant-Size Man-Thing. You know it, baby.

For the record, Marvel Comics regularly published larger-than-usual special issues titled Giant-Size (title of the comic). Man-Thing is humanoid plant, like an unintelligent Swamp Thing, so called because he's an inhuman thing in the shape of a man. Silly as the title sounds, it really was just Marvel being consistent in their titling.
