I believe the film was renamed to "...Sorceror's Stone" as it was felt there would not be as much interest from American audiences in something with the word "Philosopher" in it. ...which, sad to say, has led to some snickering and feelings of superiority over here in the UK at you "lowbrow yanks" (j/k) OK guys, you may have Hollywood blockbusters, enormous fridges, and shopping malls the size of an English town, but us Brits aren't afraid of the word Philosopher! LOL
