Is Knight of Cups the least appealing film title ever?

News that Terrence Malick (five movies released since 1973) has three or possibly four new films in the pipeline has been overshadowed, in our office at least, by the revelation that one of them is titled Knight of Cups.

Christian Bale will take the lead, while Cate Blanchett and Isabel Lucas will also star. That's about all we know about it, other than that it's got an awesomely off-putting title.

What does Knight of Cups suggest to you? A tea-time sequel to the Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz flick, Knight and Day? Some sort of superhero caper? An upmarket bra? Help us out with possible plots, and please chip in with other movie titles that have especially excited or dampened your expectations before the film's release.
