What are you looking forward to in 2016?

Lots of TV and movies coming this year that I'm excited about.

TV:
New season of Game of Thrones now that GRRM announced today that Winds of Winter won't be out before S6 debuts. Sucks that some big things are going to be seen on the show first but that also makes it more exciting not knowing what's coming. I'm worried that GRRM is never going to finish the series now that the show has passed him or that he changes things drastically from the show.

Preacher (AMC) - I'm really curious to see how they adapt this especially on AMC. This is one of my favorite comic series but there's a ton of stuff that is going to be tough to adapt.

I would put the final season of The Leftovers on here but I think that probably gets pushed to 2017.


Movies:
Both Marvel movies (Civil War and Dr Strange) - WS is my favorite MCU movie so far so really interested to see where they take those characters. Please don't mess up Spider-Man again. Was never really interested in Strange but started reading up on him after the movie was announced. I'm excited about it now because this should be a really different type of movie in the MCU plus the cast is so good.

Finding Dory - Nemo is still my favorite Pixar movie. Normally I'd be worried about a Pixar sequel but I feel pretty good about it with Andrew Stanton returning.

Batman v Superman - I'm worried about this story wise but I'm still really excited to finally see those two on the same screen. Also excited to finally see Wonder Woman in a movie. Snyder always makes a very aesthetically pleasing movie too. Not as excited for Suicide Squad because I really hate a lot of the cast. Really just want to see it for Harley and the Batman/Joker flashbacks.

Passengers - this is an old script from Jon Spaihts that has been on the internet forever. I'm so glad it's finally getting made. Great cast too - Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt.

What are you most excited about?

Rogue One should be rad.

Civil War of course. And the Agents of SHIELD lead up to it.

Don Cheadle produced and starred in a Miles Davis semi-fictional movie that should be out soon. I think it's direct to DVD though. Still psyched though.

That's it off the top of my head. Plenty of stuff I'm gonna see, but those 3 have me very excited.

I don't watch "real" TV, so other than Nick TMNT and maybe some other things, I don't watch television anymore.

For movies, the obvious ones, Batman/Superman, X-men Apocalypse, Captain America: Civil War, the new Star Trek movie. Also the Michael Bay TMNT sequel, probably see it just to see if its any better than the last awful movie.

I play far more videogames than TV/movies, so 2016 is all about games for me. So many great games to play this year, I'd much rather spend 20-30 hours on a videogame than watch some TV show.

Looking forward to? Oooh, so many things....

DEAPOOL!!!
CA: Civil War. Nuff said.
Dr. Strange. Been wanting this one for years now.
Suicide Squad. Harley in a LA film? About darn time!
TMNT 2- if only because I'm excited for R&B. Okay, and the turtles, too!
X-Men Apocalypse. Finally, Psylocke!!

New seasons of Sleepy Hollow and Gotham.
Walking Dead- still awesome!
Fear the Walking Dead. Last season was short, but promising.
That's all I can think of so far, but I'm hoping to get into a few shows like Flash, Arrow, and Agents of SHIELD if I get the chance.

Oh, did I mention Deadpool? Yeah, really stoked for that one.

Legends of Tomorrow

Batman V Superman
Deadpool
Suicide Squad
Captain America 2

Curious to know what happens in Arrow and TMNT 2, although both are trainwrecks in their own individual form or fashion.

I don't think we'll be getting any new Doctor Who next year, as I thought Moffat was going to concentrate mostly on Sherlock in 2016, but I'd love to be wrong.

You're ABSOLUTELY right.

I was so excited to see Bucky get redeemed, I hit the wrong numeral.

I still haven't seen Episode 7 yet, so that's a 2016 movie for me. Are there still a lot of people seeing Star Wars in theaters? I would think by now all the hardcore fans have seen it by now.

I want to see it when the movie isn't too crowded.

All the comic book stuff of course but nothing on the same scale as Dawn of Justice.
