At the time of this posting, this movie was in production and did not have a title. Here are my Top 5 suggestions:
1. HACKING IT
2. DEATHCAB FOR CUTIE
3. TAXI TERMINAL
4. LEAVE THE METER RUNNING
5. DISPATCHED
Any other suggestions?

I think 'Post-9/11 Cab Drama is a pretty sweet title.
shareyeah man they should totally leave it 'untitled post-9/11 cab drama'
best name ev
After having seen it, I can't imagine a better title than "Sorry, Haters". It comes right in the context of the film and suggests so much and leaves so much open to the imagination. Trust me when I say that the cab is literally just the vehicle; it makes little sense to use it in the title when the real premise is much deeper. The only other thing I can think of that would fit might be "Fear and Self-Loathing in New York", a pun on Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. The title they chose is so good on so many levels.

I'd like to leave the meaning of the title somewhat in the hands of the viewer, but it refers both to the title of the show RWP's character 'works on' at the station (rich celebrities showing off by spending their money in ludicrous ways and telling the 'haters' to step off, thereby creating a counterculture of people who want what they have only because they can't have it) and at the same marrying the idea of self-hatred and fear-of-minorities-hatred together. It'll make more sense when you've seen the film!!!
shareGlad to see someone realize the brilliance of the title. I completely agree!

So does she hate herself? Successful persons? Terrorists? or just Arabs or Muslims?
I really couldn't figure out what the title "Sorry, Haters" means!!
Thanks crazy acers, yes, the title Sorry Haters was quite appropriate. The show on TV the women work at was called that. PPl walking around with bling and acting like they're all that and trying to be better than everyone else. It implies the state of our society, and maybe an answer to why 3rd world countries are hurting and pissed and some extremists freak and set bombs. Who needs a $10k purse when in your own country ppl are starving, have no decent health care or education and the government and excessive religion are oppressing their every move. Sorry Haters not only works to explain the vast chasm between the have and have nots, and the revolution that erupts under these conditions, just like in Russia, and France when they cut off Queen Antoinet's head....one reason explaining terrorism. Also, haters as Phoebe was of herself and everyone and everything else, and groups of haters, Americans against Muslims or vice versa, etc. Her getting back at the big time "I'm better than you are" types, like Bill Gates, Trump, Oprah Winfrey, and Martha Stewart (the pics on the collage, I'm not saying these ppl are bad, just talking about those in the collage) staging her own mini war as a mini terrorist herself. Plus, using the current 911 political climate to push her revenge even further. Another reaction to all the hate in general. Plus, haters is a lingo hip timely phrase that catches the eye. I thought the movie was going to be about black hip hop types or Paris Hilton types, until I found out what it really was about. IF you would have called it something else it may have ruined the plot because you had no idea what was going to happen. This movie wasn't exactly ahead of it's time, but I think it was over the head of a lot of ppl. myself included until I understood it much better after going through these threads. I feel it was highly underated.
