I moved the page to The Secret of My Success since this image from amazon.com suggests that is the proper name of the film. Perhaps I am wrong?--ShaunMacPherson 11:41, 13 Sep 2004 (UTC)

According to IMDB, The Secret of My Succe$s is the "official" name, so I moved it back. Raider Duck 21:20, 27 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Generally IMDb is a good source, but it has been known to make mistakes. If the actual movie poster spells it "Success", why should we accept IMDb on this? —MJBurrageTALK • 11:06, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Normally I would accept the film poster, not IMDB in this case. But there also is a variety review. [1]. That one does spells it as succe$s. But it's weird that no film poster I saw spells it as that. Garion96 (talk) 11:15, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It should be "The Secret of My Success" per film posters and video covers, but if using "The Secret of My Succe$s" or $uccess or $ucces$ or Succes$, etc. to differentiate this movie with the other "The Secret of My Success" article, a simple fix is to keep it "The Secret of My Success" with (Micheal J. Fox film) or (1987 comedy film) after it or (James Booth film) or (1965 film) after the other/first one. Just a thought... I just edited the Micheal J. Fox page and it was directing the movie to the wrong one. I fixed it, but not without a conflict/edit/revert issue with someone else. After further investigation on their part, or due to my response, it was corrected and left as "The Secret of My SucceSs", but this may not be actually the best/right way of keeping the article/page title. I'm sure it's only being used to differentiate from the earlier film [title]? Thanks! 69.129.170.102 (talk) 22:34, 7 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

We don't do goofy characters in titles like that. See MOS:TM. I have moved. Mike R (talk) 23:28, 18 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"She promptly replaces him with Brantley, with Jean and Melrose at his side." Who the heck are Jean and Melrose? This is the only mention of them in the synopsis. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.186.162.89 (talk) 20:21, 5 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
