ToTheNines 01-04-2009 11:55 AM

Up, the new Pixar movie

Cure 01-04-2009 12:08 PM

I'm definitely looking forward to "Watchmen", "Transformers", "Wolverine", and "Star Trek". You know, all the big geek movies. "Monsters Vs Aliens" and "Up" have me pretty excited, too. Comedy movies like "I love you, Man" and "Year One" are also noteworthy. There's prolly a lot more for me, too.

Mr._Mutant_Man 01-04-2009 12:17 PM

Wolverine and Star Trek.

I guess Watchmen too, assuming it still gets released.

There's going to be a Deathlok movie? Marvel is going to try to make a movie about every last character, aren't they?

Raph's Girl 01-04-2009 05:09 PM

Wolverine
Star Trek
Watchmen
Transformers
Pink Panther 2
Race To Witch Mountain
Dragonball
Angels and Demons
Terminator
G.I. Joe
Where The Wild Things Are
Sherlock Holmes
Princess And the Frog

Maybe the Chipmunks sequel but Miley Cyrus is voicing Eleanor... UGH!

The Terror of Death 01-04-2009 05:10 PM

I'll one up all of you with Saw VI.

GK Punk 01-04-2009 05:40 PM

Looking forward the most to GI Joe, Star Trek, Transformers, Watchmen and Terminator.

ThirdMarioBro 01-04-2009 05:43 PM

Princess & The Frog - Welcome back Disney. Welcome back.
Star Trek - It will probably suck taint, but I'm obligated to see it anyway.
Underworld 3: Rise of the Lycans - No Kate, but I'm still seeing it.
Fanboys - Me and my friends wanted to storm the Skywalker Ranch when we were little. Win.
Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li - I'm just going to pray this doesn't suck. It's part of the Street Fighter IV ritual.
Jennifer's Body - Sounds really fu*ked up. Cool.
Jurassic Park IV - Only because John Williams is doing the music again.
Sin City 2 - When in the hell is this coming out?
Inglourious Basterds - Basically because it's a Tarantino movie.


And whenever the heck Tron 2 and the rumored Family Guy movie comes out, I'm so there.

GK Punk 01-04-2009 05:53 PM

Oh I forgot about Fanboys. Yeah, Looking forward to that too. Hey TMB, I only live about an hour or so from Skywalker ranch. Let's go raid that bitch.

ThirdMarioBro 01-04-2009 05:55 PM

I'll bring the cargo van and the shotgun. You bring the booze.

GK Punk 01-04-2009 06:11 PM

Color me there.

Peanut 01-04-2009 07:15 PM

Crank 2. The trailer was fantastic.
Also, Princess and the Frog. Classic Disney animation FTW!

Ninjinister 01-04-2009 07:25 PM

Wolverine, Watchmen, and a couple of horror films (The Unborn, Saw VI), but not much else. Nothing I'll probably go see in a theater.

Jester 01-04-2009 07:47 PM

Paul Blart: Mall Cop (Just something about Kevin James as a mall cop makes me snicker.)
Fanboys
Wolverine
Star Trek
Transformers 2 & GI Joe, (I guess. I was never a huge fan of either franchise, but they'll probably be fun.0
The Christmas Carol (Love that story!)
The Flash
Magneto

and of course Sci-Fi Movie....:roll: *groans*

Ra 01-04-2009 08:04 PM

I'll put down some that have peeked my interest. Or sound like they have promise. Either one.

o Princess and the Frog
o Watchmen
o Wolverine
o Cirque du Freak (anything to get the foul taste of 'Twilight' out of my mouth)
o Fanboys
o The Year One
o The Lovely Bones

Too early in the year for me to name others. Quite a few on that list that sort of make me cringe though (just like every other year I guess).

Cure 01-04-2009 08:17 PM

I forgot about Princess and the Frog, so that's there, too. I also just saw the red band trailer for Crank 2. It looks so ridiculous, but in an awesome way.

Mr. Snackpants 01-04-2009 08:52 PM

Inglorious Basterds
Watchmen
Wolverine
Transformers 2

Gran Torino and The Wrestler if you wanna get technical.

I don't keep up a whole lot on movies in the distant future.

GK Punk 01-04-2009 09:22 PM

the Wrestler is a pretty awesome movie. I do recommend it.

Jelly Bean 01-05-2009 08:56 AM

I'm not sure if this is for this year or the following year, but I'm looking foward to Red Sonja.

every one else pretty much mentioned all the movies I want to see. :D

I was praying that was just a rumor... I have to admit, that first one, for all the grief I gave it was pretty good... though, Jason Lee made a meh Dave Seville and David Cross totally stole the film. I just hope they can add the Chippettes into the film without it just being fan service....

愛 01-05-2009 09:02 AM

No one put down Dragonball Evolution? I'm disappointed in all of you.

Anyone who didnt list that peice of s*it deserves a knighthood.

You should work as an irony detector, Zarius.

F*ck Miley Cyrus, dude, she's possibly the worst of the teeny boppers out there. No talent whatsoever.

Over Exposure... Over exposure, man. And stunt casting.

I still don't understand why Ross Jr. and Janice Karman's dialogue had to be redubbed by celeb voice actors (in the first one), especially since at a high pitch you can't tell much of a difference. Of course, using that logic, I'll just imagine it's someone else.

Other than that, I'm gonna see Transformers 2... I'm sure there are a lot of good films to get excited about, but it's no where near as competitive as this year was. Due, of course, in part of the writers strike.

The one film I'm not looking forward to seeing is the annual "Let's cram as many at the moment movies we can into a pop culture fart fest Movie"

This is why I'm glad I only play games and download the handful of TV shows I watch from torrents.

I never know who the "hate because they're popular" people of the minute are. I still don't know why the f*ck people complain about child performers, though. What kind of kiddy sh*t are you watching that has Hannah Montana stamped all over it? Chances are, if you're being overexposed to her, you're probably too old to be watching what you're watching. Or at least the wrong gender.

She obviously has something, otherwise we could just call her Hannah and ignore her all the time.

Hannah 01-05-2009 07:42 PM

Her dad is that country douchebag. And not everyone ignores me!

You can't fool us, Hannah Montana.

No one can just enjoy something anymore. Someone's gotta have a bad opinion about it.

Not only that, but nobody can enjoy something without someone else making them feel lesser having liked it.

Oh jeez, not another one of these. How many sci-fi movies have their been lately for them to make "jokes" about? Wasn't that Scary Movie that parodied War of the Worlds basically "Sci-Fi Movie"?

I wish people would stop going to these.

Well...there's The Day the Eart Stood Still, the new Star Trek, and I'm sure there will be others by the time it's released.

And it f**ing begins. I could care less about her sh*tty little show, I'm just pissed she's in a movie I kinda wanted to see. Get it?

But WHY?! Has she done anything to you? Even then, her voice is gonna be altered to high heaven.

And yeah, Dragonball for me for the lulz.

That's why I didn't care that Jesse McCartney voiced Theodore. They could get David Hasselhoff to voice every chipmunk in the movie and each individual character would still be modified the same way.

...that would be a pretty badass movie...

It's still stunt casting. Or a highly pointless rumor that spread around the internet. Either way, would you go to see a movie that has any actor or actress in it you don't like? You wouldn't. And how would you feel if there was a movie you wanted to see, but said actors get cast in it? Disappointed.

And on that logic, if her voice is going to be altered, is there even a point to it? They could easily get anyone to play that role then.

Whoa, whoa, hold it there, pal. It's pretty clear you and I have very different mentalities, so don't group me in with you. It's true there are some actors out there I don't like, but if a movie is worth seeing, I'll see it no matter who gets casted, ESPECIALLY if it's a movie I'm excited for.

Drtooth 01-06-2009 01:46 PM

Lemme put it this way... if there was a new TMNT (or something) movie, and they somehow cast, let's say Chris Kattan as Leonardo, and you still wanted to see it anyway, wouldn't you be a bit disappointed? That's all I'm saying here. No need to make this a federal case.

(Of course, had they really stunt casted a TMNT movie, we'd all be moaning about it for 15 pages, and then saying it's all Mirage's fault)
