The working title for my movie is listed, but I don't want it to be

My film, "They're Watching" (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3096858/combined) is listed, and the title is correct, but the IMDB shows just below that the temp working title of the movie "TVZ: Repossessed" -- this was NEVER the title of the movie, it was just the title we put on location signs to help vehicle drivers find our set... but now it seems that we are stuck with it forever on the IMDB?  This is an insane policy... the film will be released in 30 days, and we'd really rather not have this albatross of a fake name hung around our neck for eternity.  When I visit the page for The Return of the Jedi, it doesn't indicate that the name of the film was originally "Blue Harvest" nor "Revenge of the Jedi" -- can you please permanently delete "TVZ: Repossessed" from our IMDB listing?

Thanks,
Micah Wright, director/writer

Micah: It looks like the title of your film is in transition in the various versions of IMDb's databases, and I'm not sure how it is going to work out. At http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3096858/, the film is listed as They're Watching, and neither TVZ: Repossessed nor any other title is listed at http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3096858/releaseinfo.

I would recommend waiting a couple of days and seeing how your title shakes out -- that is, whether IMDb gets your film consistently listed as They're Waiting or whether the TVZ: Repossessed title winds up taking precedence.
