For example

"I went to see "The Money Pit" could be I went to see "Terminator".

I suppose if you said "I bought the "Terminator" box set". You should say " I bought the "The Money Pit" box set"

Most people would not however, and truly no one would notice.

"The" Forum members won't give "the" fuck... However, I do recall a few years ago we did have "The Grammar Police" patrolling this Forum, they used to pull members up for using the wrong words, sentence structure and spelling errors.. I wonder what happened to the "The Grammar Police"?
