What’s extra-goofy is I’m pretty sure Encino barely had more recognition in the rest of the US than it does in the UK, before that movie came out. Like, if not for the film, I expect I’d still not be aware of it. So changing it for the UK for (presumably) reasons of familiarity doesn’t make a ton of sense.

It sounds a lot better, too. Should have kept the name.

So if I have this right then a movie made about kids who find a skunk ape and take him to high school to party with them could be titled Orlando Man here in the states but would end up being titled Florida Man in the UK?

If I remember the movie, Paulie Shore presented him as "Estonia Man".
