I think those surveyed didn't think about the title, because it didn't mean much to them. Since it sounds like they were also told who the stars were, they were probably basing it on that. Still not a great way to judge a movie, but better than by the title. It's almost as if there's a proverb about judging a work of art by something superficial, isn't it?
