Can We Just Keep Calling It ‘X-Files 2?’

Blazing across the internets today is news that the official title has finally been announced for the upcoming X-Files movie, which most folks have been referring to as simply X-Files 2.

So are you ready?

The X-Files: I Want to Believe

Really? That’s the title?

Anyone who reads this site knows I’m not a huge fan of the franchise, but the trailer actually looked pretty good to me. Gotta say though, my first thought when I read that was the title?

Lame.

It’s almost as lame as Quantum of Solace. (Thanks, Jon!)

Regarding the top secret title that was just revealed, Chris Carter stated:

“It really does suggest Mulder’s struggle with his faith.”

Presumably that would be his faith in little green men and not God.

Anyway, I guess that image with Mulder standing in front of a poster with that exact phrase makes more sense now.

The X-Files: I Want to Believe opens on July 25th
