Okay, this isn't a question about the rule in general and hopefully it won't turn into a discussion regarding the rules merits or uses and how the rule came about and the arguments involving the rule over the last 4 years, etc, etc.  This is a specific question about how to handle a particular profile.  This movie is actually a Made For TV movie and yes I know the movie isn't all that good, but it's in my collection and I hate seeing it's mostly empty profile so thought I'd fix it.  I have a strong suspicion when I submit this it will get 0 votes as I highly doubt anyone else even owns this movie, so I wanted to make sure I did this right. 

Anyway, the front of the DVD cover, the spine, and the back of the DVD cover all show the name as "Michael Jordan: An American Hero" (this is also how the current half empty profile shows it).  However, when you watch the movie, the opening credits show the name "Michael Jordan: The Road To Victory".  This was the original name of the Made For TV movie.

Now in my mind I set the profile as:

DVD Title: Michael Jordan: An American Hero
Original Title: Michael Jordan: The Road To Victory
Sort Title: Michael Jordan: An American Hero

This seems correct to me, but I figured I'd get some other opinions before submitting to be on the safe side.

Well, since you have limited all other options, I have no choice but to simply answer your question. 


I think you have it right. 
No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.
There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom.
Against this power, governments and tyrants and armies cannot stand.
The Centauri learned this lesson once.
We will teach it to them again.
Though it take a thousand years, we will be free.

Sort title is still private I believe so you can set it to whatever you prefer.

Indeed. Even if you submit a new profile, the sort title stays local.
