While there are a lot I'm looking forward to, my top 10 most anticipated are:

Inglorious Bastards
Public Enemies
The Road
Sherlock Holmes (Guy Ritchie)
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen
Che
Gomorrah
Shutter Island
Star Trek
Watchmen

Other notable ones: The Soloist, GI Joe, Drag Me to Hell, My Bloody Valentine 3D, Wolverine, The Lovely Bones, The Wolf Man, The Brothers Bloom, Monsters vs. Aliens, Where the Wild Things Are, Crank 2: High Voltage, I Love You Man, Terminator: Salvation

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....

*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.

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....
