Hey, quick question. This isn't a major question and nor is it really a big deal either way, but the Now You See Me sequel that comes out today seems to be listed as two different names on some sites. Some say it's Now You See Me 2, and others say Now You See Me: The Second Act? So which one is it exactly? Curious. Thank you.

Internationally known as Now You See Me: The Second Act. Known as Now You See Me 2 in America

I can't remember if I saw the first one.

Shouldn't it be Now You See Me, Too? Of course, that begs the question of whether it's Now YOU See Me, Too, or Now You See ME, Too. It could change the whole meaning of the film.

If they really want to run with the title, the sequel should have been called "Now You Don't"

They tried to get that title approved, but the studio vetoed it, saying it was too easy for critics to latch onto a title like that and kill a movie.

Not a huge fan of when movie titles just add a number for the sequels. Between this and the Conjuring 2 (both out this weekend), I wish some creativity was thrown in with the titles.

Me too. I think that the original title "The Second Act" would've been a little better. Sigh.

I don't really mind just adding a number. I prefer it to adding a subtitle without a number. It annoyed me when the Star Trek movies dropped the numbers, for instance. A little consistency is all I'm asking for.
