    "Thank God for ‘Harry Potter.’ I tell you, the two — ‘Batman’ and ‘Harry Potter’ — really, they saved me,

    That’s his exact quote. How long do you want the title, which is quoting him, to be?

      “Gary Oldman thanks Batman, Harry Potter for ‘saving’ his family life”.

      Accurate, informative, and shorter than the given title.

          You respond like you didn’t specifically ask how.

            I think /u/WarmSoda may be as pleasant in real life as their username.

      I’d prefer titles that more accurately described the content - they don’t necessarily have to quote the content.

      While you may be technically correct, a quote taken out of context can be misleading, as is the case here.

      They chose the quote to be the title for that purpose. That’s clickbait.

      The title does not need to be a quote to give you information about the article. They use the quote out of context specifically to twist it slightly and get more clicks.
