## Transcript

Hollywood seems to have shifted the way studios announce new movie information. Three different directors on three different movies, tweeted three different secrets on the same day. And we're not talking about directors on small Indy flicks. We're talking about Ghost Busters, Guardians of the Galaxy, and Star Trek. At the press day for Marvel's Ant- man, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige accidentally mentioned the Guardians of the Galaxy sequel name when discussing the film's shooting schedule. According to Collider, Feige said We start shooting Guardians of the Galaxy volume two, in February / March 2016.

Director James Gunn later tweeted conformation of the movie title saying 'Yes, the official title for the Guardians sequel is Guardians of the Galaxy Volume two. Nice detective work, Collider, you got us. He also posted on his Facebook page saying that some fans had actually guessed the title actually posting a partial picture of the front page of the script. He said " I wanted so badly to give you props at the time, but knew I had to wait. For Kevin to mess up ." Volume two likely references Star Lord's now famous mix Tape from the film which was called Peter Quills' Awesome Mix Volume One. Shortly after that confirmation, the first director to take over Star Trek after J.

J. Abrams, Justin Lin posted both the first onset picture as well as the hashtag confirming the name of the film. In May, cowriter Simon Pegg referenced the next film in the franchise as Star Trek. Beyond in a post office blog. Lin confirmed a title and a Tweet that read, Let the next Starfleet voyage begin, hashtag Star Trek Beyond. Not even 40 minutes later do we get our final movie secret. A first official look at the Ghostbuster's costume. Director Paul Feig tweeted the picture with a clever hash tag, what you gonna wear? The costume department was even nice enough to label the outfits so we know which actress is wearing which uniform.

We're loving Feig's hash tags. As if the costume reveal wasn't exciting enough He also revealed the very next day a first look at the proton packs with a hashtag what you gonna shoot. Ghostbusters and Star Trek Beyond have summer 2016 release dates while Guardians of the Galaxy volume two won't hit theatres until
