From "I Hate You Dad" to "Donny's Boy"

I think "Donny's Boy" sounds a little like their previous production, "Grandma's Boy," which flopped because it starred Allen Covert (it was funny though). However, most people don't even know that film exists...

==================================

Sandler movie gets a new name


“I Hate You, Dad,” the Adam Sandler and Andy Samberg comedy that’s filming in Osterville, has a new name: “Donny’s Boy.” We got word about the title change today, and we have to admit, “Donny’s Boy” is a bit catchier (and certainly less confrontational) than “I Hate You, Dad.” We assume that the new title means that Sandler’s character will be named Donny. The New Hampshire-bred actor is set to play Samberg’s grouchy father in the film, which co-stars Leighton Meester, Vanilla Ice, and Susan Sarandon. This isn’t the first Boston movie that’s had a big name change. “Knight & Day,” the blockbuster starring Cameron Diaz and Tom Cruise, was called “Wichita” and “Trouble Man” before director James Mangold settled on its final title.
