According to my information "Earthlings: Ugly Bags of Mostly Water" does 
have a Klingon parallel title which we should probably use:  {bIQSIp 
'ugh}.  (OK, so "heavy hydrogen [deuterium isotope]" is not how I would 
have translated it;  a simple {tera'nganpu'} would have sounded fine by 
me!  I wonder... were they trying for *{bIQSIp moH} "ugly water" and got 
confused by {'ugh} "be heavy"? which sounds like "ugly"?)

In any event ads, posters and trailers are available online at:

and the trailer from the U.K. vendor's site is at:
