On the eve of the release of Captain America: Civil War (which I reiterate, is great and you should see it), there’s a couple of news tidbits worth talking about:

  • Over on Instagram, New Mutants director Josh Boone has presumably revealed his team line-up in the following images:

Looks like the New Mutants to me! I’ll go ahead and lay down my guess that the long talked about X-Force film is a team-up between Deadpool and the New Mutants, seems pretty obvious when you think about it really.

  • Talking with UpRoxx, the soon to be “toast of the town”- as far as superhero movies go anyway – Joe and Anthony Russo revealed that the upcoming Infinity War films, up till now titled Avengers: Infinity War Part 1 and Avengers: Infinity War Part 2, will be getting a name change. Stating that both movies will be very different from each other and the Part 1 and 2 monikers were misleading, they added:

    “The intention is we will change it, we just haven’t come up with the titles yet. But, yes, we will change it. And, yes, that is a scoop: we will retitle them.”

    I’ve long held that outright advertising to audiences that they’re only getting *half* of the full story, even if it’s just an illusion that you’re getting the whole she-bang otherwise, is a bad idea. This is a great move on Marvel’s side, echoing the very same thing that Warner Bros. is doing with their Justice League films.

  1. New Infinity War movie titles? How about:

    Part I – No Matter Where You Go

    Part II – There You Are

  2. Infinity War Pt. 1: Thanos Quest
    Infinity War Pt. 2: infinity Crusade

    The current state of affairs is that the materials comprising the “Infinity Gems” are still all spread around.

    We know Thanos needs to get them. He will get them in part 1, which essentially needs to be a loose adaption of Thanos Quest.

    He will lose them in part 2. Part 2 will be a two hour fight with each of 62 characters getting at most 2 minutes of screen time.

    Silly But True
