I'm alittle confused...What is the title of this movie is it, The 51st State or Formula 51????

Formula 51 is the only title I know this movie by.

The American title and Canadian title is Formula 51, everywhere else its "The 51st State," and im guessing since it is an english movie, and it did better in europe than it did here, imdb calls it the 51st State.

My guess is September 11th screwed with this movie's success. It was just bad timeing to have a film with a lot of violence blood and playful jokes aimed at Americans already waiting to be released when the planes hit. Unlucky.
