I hate to sound like such a movie grouch…but i’m going to anyway.
Is it just me, or as the years have gone by recently…there just seems to be less and less to look forward to every year. Nothing really sticks out for me anymore, it all appears to just be adaptations or remakes, or sequels nowadays. Some adaptations which shouldn’t even exist in cinema (I’m look at you, Watchmen!)
It could just be me, but it seems as though there’s very little to get excited about these days. Also, I’ve just realized that my argument about adaptations is useless…they’ve existed every year in cinema for years. But i can’t be bothered to delete it
Maybe i’m just getting old and less excited for things these days. But that doesn’t seem right because i still get excited to read some of my beloved comic books, and there are a lot of TV shows that excite me more than most new movies.
It’s a little heartbreaking in a way because i really do quite enjoy going to the cinema
Well, Coraline’s come and gone. At the moment my list reads:
9
Transformers 2
HP & the HBP
The Princess and the Frog (my career is depending on that to do well!)
Street Fighter
Watchmen
Avatar (provided that the trailers prove it hasn’t been ruined)
UP
Wolverine
maybe Ice Age 3 and Star Trek
ummm…9?
Heres the movies I’m looking forword to (In order of release date) : Up (obviously) Friday The Thirteenth
Fast and the Furious
Crank 2: High Voltage
Angels and Demons
Terminator Salvation
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen
The Ugly Truth
Final Destination: Death Trip 3D
Toy Story in 3D (obviously) 2012
Night at the Museum 2 (seems interesting, the “don’t touch that” made me chuckle a little)
Maybe…Race to Witch Mountain, I dunno.
Watch Men!! I am a sucker for comic book superhero movies!
Hope they make one out of World’s Finest
(And if u dunno wut that is, it’s the comics where Superman and Batman become a team)
Maybe Wovlerine, I saw X-Men too many times, didn’t understand it. But Wolverine WAS/IS my favorite character. Idk.
UP! (my summer begins the day this opens) G.I. Joe (One reason only. Ray Park (Darth Maul) is in it) Harry Potter and THBP (I’m really hoping this is better then the terrible adaptations we’ve had so far, and it’s so hard to mess this one up) The Princess and the Frog (I’ve been waiting for this release ever since the 2D animation studios were closed down) Wolervine (Eh, i’ll proabaly be cool, but it has Gambit so that’s good enough) Fanboys (I’m a HUGE Star Wars fan)
Movies I’ll probably see, but aren’t really lookin forward too Dragonball Evolutions (I used to watch this as kid, so I will most likely end up seeing it, but man, does this look terrible) Sherlock Holmes (I liked the books) Year One (Harold Ramis. I’ll give it a chance)
National Treasure 3… I know they’re going to make it, but when exactly it will be finished and released is another story. Yay for Justin Bartha as Riley…!
Also, I’m anxious for The Voyage of the Dawn Treader - the next in the Narnia series. I’m really excited to see who they’ll cast in that movie, seeing as how I’ve read through the whole series.
little chef: A National Treasure 3? Hmm, I loved the first two, but I think 3 is going a little too far. I can also say that I am excited for the next Narnia movie.
According to the Disney Press Release Disney and Pixar have Announced Newt for Release in 2011… Cars 2 and Bear and the Bow are the Scheduled release for 2012.
Unless someone’s not filled me in with Information… Since that Press Release was given.
Movies:
AstroBoy (looks great!)
Up (well duh)
HP6 (I’m excited how this will be since this is the 1st PG HP movie in a while.)
Transformers Revenge Of The Fallen
Toy Story 1&2 3D
Avatar (I used to love that show)
Sherlock Homes
9 (I haven’t watched trailer yet.)
Up (comes out the day after my birthday!)
Hannah Montana the Movie (I know it’s out, but I haven’t seen it yet)
Night at the Museum 2: Battle of the Smithsonian (I love Owen Wilson’s character, Jedidiah!!! An early birthday present!)
That’s all I’ve got for now! If I could list two movies coming out later on (both in 2011, I think) I would list them. But this is for 2009 only!
