Gee that's a pretty arrogant title.

But you know what else? The best story ever told is the one of Hammond AND HAMMOND HE LOOK AT TEALC AND RIP HIM TO BITS AND EAT HIM AS BURGER AS TEALCBURGER HE EAT HE EAT TEALC ALIVE

Before time began, there was Hammond. He created the feast. And so shall Hammond be in the end with all his power and glory and many feasts.

-Book of Hammond: Preparations chapter 1 verse 14

Ah Bless Hammond

Never heard of that.

The title probably refers more to the most known story ever told. Maybe, even people who don't believe in him know of Jesus.

Who is the Hammond that you are refering to? Is it Richard Hammond? He is one of the presenters on the BBC's 'Top Gear'

The title is taken from the novel the film was based on.

The title is perfect because it's true.

I like the title because a "story" doesn't have to be true.

Tracy Figueira nailed this in an earlier post: the title is taken from the book of the same name, by Fulton Oursler, and follows the novel's general outlines.

Poster the movie is about Jesus Christ, the greatest being of all. So naturally, it would be the greatest story ever told. You sound like a crazy, sick, idiotic and STUPID CREEP!!!

Wow. I'll bet your nasty little tirade made Jesus happy!
