A recent contribution which includes changing the profile on a DVD from "Rat Pfink a Boo Boo" to "The Adventures of Rat Pfink and Boo Boo" makes sense when considering the contribution rules. The longer title is what is on both the front cover of the DVD and the credits listed on the back cover.

The current profile gives the shorter title. I believe it was submitted and accepted long before the current contribution rules were written; I know it was before Invelos. The title comes from what is on the film itself. As its producer, writer and director, Ray Dennis Steckler reveals in his interview in the book "Incredibly Strange Films" (which is a play on the title of his most famous film), "The film was called Rat Phink and Boo Boo, but the guy who did the titles misspelled it and I couldn't afford to have them redone, so I left it."

My question is: should the original title be "Rat Pfink a Boo Boo" as what we see on screen, or should it be "Rat Phink and Boo Boo" which was supposed to be the title of the film?

Oh! We need a new field! Intended title! 

Quoting TheMadMartian:

To answer your question, I think the rules are pretty clear on this one..."Use the title from the film's credits."

An answer which is clear and makes sense. Thank you! 

One thing I find funny about this film (beyond the film itself) is that in the interview I cited, Steckler says the budget for the film was $8. In his 2003 introduction on the DVD he says he spent $20 on the film, every dollar of which is visible. Back to the interview, about the name error, he says it would have cost $50 to redo the opening credits. My simple thought is, okay, it was a VERY low budget film, but if it cost $50 to redo the opening credits, how much did it cost to make them in the first place, given an $8 to $20 total budget?
