Why can’t commas replace colons in movie titles?

We could just read it as (Movie title) and then (any other important information about the movie)

Because commas and colons are used for different purposes.

Comma
a punctuation mark (,) indicating a pause between parts of a sentence. It is also used to separate items in a list and to mark the place of thousands in a large numeral

Colon
a punctuation mark (:) used to precede a list of items, a quotation, or an expansion or explanation.
