Subject: Detect Titles in Corpus

 
I'm trying to detect titles of books, computer games and movies in my Spanish
corpus. Grammar tags don't help because the corpus is not grammatically
consistent. I'm trying to find a database with all the published books,
movies, etc. to train a classifier because I haven't found a better solution.

However, I've thought that for sure more linguists have been in the same
situation since titles are very misleading (contain words from many domains
and do not necessarily follow an exclusive grammatical pattern).

Does anyone have a better solution for this problem? Or, at least, if you do
know a good database for titles...  I would very much appreciate any kind of
help!

Thank you very much for your time and attention,
