I don't know, but it really frustrates me.  Just plain "stormbreaker" is SO much better.

You know we Amercians can handle "Stormbreaker". I don't see why we need to change these names for different countries. It still seems cool.

They changed it. It was a marketing thing to appeal to the US market.

  The Weinstein Company has recently alerted us that they have changed the title of Stormbreaker to something a little longer -- Alex Rider: Operation Stormbreaker.


That stinks...

You know I think it's because the US market is more likely to be concerned about a kid spy. So they tone it down (at least for the marketing).

I have my personal feelings about this marketing. But I won't say them for fear of being banned.

They are such idiots. I really can't see myself going to this now. It looks just like a kids spy movie. It's rediculous, look at what it says...

"Rule the School. Save the world." Sounds a lot like another movies tagline,
