Why do so few movies have useful names like Snakes on a Plane or
World Trade Center?

Most are so vague and unmemorable, they could be interchangeable, like Untamed Heart, Wild at Heart, and When a Man Loves a Woman. The content of each of those is quite different, but if you hadn't seen them or heard of them and I gave you a list of plots to match to those titles, I doubt that anyone's answers would be more accurate than if the titles were in Urdu.
