Why Are Some Movies Put Under False Names....? please help i'm kind of confused! =]?

ok, so i'm reading this thing on The Dark Knight movie and it said that


';The film was delivered to some theaters under the name ';Oliver's Army';.


why would this happen, or why would the filmakers want to put it under a false name?





haha i hope i'm not asking a completely stupid question!


thanks for your answers! =]Why Are Some Movies Put Under False Names....? please help i'm kind of confused! =]?
Because they dont want people to bootleg it. Theaters get it usually a week in advance to put it together and then test it to make sure its put together in correct order and that there's no major problem with it. I used to work in the movie theater and I always volunteered to watch them as soon as they were done with it. I got to watch most movies a week earlier! It was fun.Why Are Some Movies Put Under False Names....? please help i'm kind of confused! =]?
Mostly for security reasons. Obviously something like Dark Knight would be a big target for theft and piracy. By using false names, it would at least throw some people off track...for a little while anyways.
no that's a GOOD question! :) i can only make guesses about it.. but i would guess maybe to disguise it so that it doesn't get stolen and posted all over the internet or something.
I know Cloverfield was filmed under a false name to help keep that movie a secret it hit theaters.
if u were asking a stupid question a LOT more ppl would answer
