Lionheart : Why 3 titles?

Why 3 titles?

About 13 years ago I was discussing "AWOL" with an Aussie guy who had never seen it, but when I told him the plot he recognised it as "Wrong Bet", now I see it is called "Lionheart" in the US!

Can anyone think of a reason why?

Re: Why 3 titles?

It had different distributors in different countries, and they have the right to choose the title that they think will work best in their territory. In Germany it's called "Lyon," so there's a fourth one for you.

Re: Why 3 titles?

I have a German poster that calls it "Leon."

Re: Why 3 titles?

Another title is Black Eagle I think.

Re: Why 3 titles?

Black Eagle is a totally different movie before Lionheart staring Sho Kosugi and Jean Claude. It's not very good, pretty boring and Van Damme gets killed at the end by a boat motor.

Re: Why 3 titles?

It was also called FULL CONTACT in Sweden.

Re: Why 3 titles?

It should have been called Van Damme's Hot Ass.

Lolzors might have sold just as many :D

Kung fu movies are like porn. There's 1 on 1, then 2 on 1, then a group scene...

Re: Why 3 titles?

I know it as AWOL.

Not sure why it has so many different titles.

Its that man again!!
