This movie has jack to do with the Trojan war, why call it that unless there is something similar in the love affair between this guy and this girl as there was with Paris and Helen?

It's called Trojan War because of the jimmie, dude.

And by jimmie, I mean CONDOM.

Says the guy who wants to sound cool with the whole "I *beep* so much I actually have an opinion about a specific brand of condoms!"

I just asked myself the very same thing. A very misleading title, in my opinion. In Germany it is called "No-night stand." I think, a much better title.

"Hooters, hooters, yum yum yum,
Hooters, hooters, on a girl that´s dumb!"
The Bundy credo

Over here in Spain, the title would translate as "Out of Control", Control being a popular brand of condom over here...

Well you could see it as a methaphore too. The Greek needed to 'cover up' their soldiers before entering the walls of the trojans. But that's obviously why the condom is called that way.
