The conundrum: Shaft, or MiB International?
They both come out on the same day, you see. Both have their points; I want to see both, but realistically I’m not going to see both. The MiB franchise is shaky (to be polite about it); this latest Shaft offering may be a little too deferential to the modern era’s sensibilities. Or maybe not (do not click that link to the trailer at work, or in front of small children, or your mother).
Crud: I had half-talked myself into MiB International while writing this. Now I’m back on the damn fence again. Maybe I should be trying to figure out how to finesse this…
The New Men In Black: International trailer.
I like the buddy-cop vibe. Extra points if they don’t do a romance between the two. I’m not saying that Men In Black: International will suck if they do do that, but it’d make for an interesting change if they don’t. You could always save it for the sequel, anyway.
The Men in Black: International trailer.
I am not totally confident.
Then again, that might not be Men In Black: International‘s fault. We are, as they say, having a day here at Chez Lane. Guess we’ll see…
So, it’s gonna be called Men In Black International.
It has some promise to it.
#FBF shooting MIB with my partner in galaxy protection @TessaThompson_x when we were ripping aliens a new one. From memory, this shot was taken in between set ups when we noticed some criminal activity on the streets in London. #MIBInternational 🕶️ @MenInBlack pic.twitter.com/b89RQCcswl
