I know this has been discussed, expressed, and talked about but never given a thread.
Why was the "Child's Play" name abandoned?
Also... how did you feel about it?
Part of me thinks that the character became bigger than the name. Even when I was a kid my father would tape movies from TV or rental videos... fun since it required 2 VCRs lol.
After the first one he got lazy and labeled the next 2 films "Chucky 2" and "Chucky 3" so it was already implanted in our heads when someone says the name "Chucky" you automatically think of the killer doll.
It's not like Chucky was the only one. Freddy and Jason both had movies that weren't titled under their respective franchise names so I guess it's just how the stream flows.
So maybe they felt they didn't need the "Child's Play" name anymore. Still... I am OCD and would have liked to have seen these other films undet the "Child's Play" banner.
