I'm all for Terminator Salvation.



Damn it. Not a single film there that I'd care for. I guess, if I had to choose one, it'd be Friday The 13th, but to say that I want to see it would be stretching it.

How the hell did The Pink Panther 2 get greenlit? Honestly, I despair sometimes, I really do.

I wasn't really excited for any movies this year.

2009 looks promising enough to me

Mr. Bean's Holiday was such a cute movie, to me.



Bright light. Bright light. Uh oh.
Have you watched any Pink Panther movies with Peter Sellers as Inspector Clouseau?

Welcome to the human race...
And the point of this particular exercise was what again?

Also noticed that despite the fact that seven of those choices got absolutely no votes at all, you still put them in numerical order. How'd you decide what order to put them in if they got no votes?



Welcome to the human race...
from other people's choice
But they didn't choose them one way or the other. Half those films didn't rate a mention.

Ah, forget it. This thread makes no sense.



He's called Tequila. He's a tough cop.
Watchmen easily, that list kinda sucks anyway. (sorry)

I'm apprehensive about Watchmen, hopefully Snyder won't just recycle what he learnt from 300 and bring something new to the film opposed to trying to define himself with auteur-ish similarities.

I voted Star Trek tho that's mostly cuz of the mood i'm in now. The Wolf Man should be good on cast alone, which is probably just below Watchmen at the top.

Definitely Watchmen. I admit, I'm buying into the hype and I'm giddy at the prospect of seeing it.

Other than that, just two others. First: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. I like that they're pushing the release back, and just knowing where the series goes, I think the last two installments have a chance to be the best.

Second: Star Trek. My old man watched Star Trek: The Next Generation a lot while I was growing up, and while I'm not really a fan myself, a few of the better episodes stuck with me. I also found the last few films to be awfully enjoyable, even if Nemesis was a bit disapointing. For my money, though, First Contact and Insurrection are both wildly entertaining.

Anyway, I'm neither a full-blown Trekkie or a full-blown J.J. Abrahams fanboy, but I have significant appreciation for both, and I like the look of it so far.

I'm sure I'll end up adding to this list, but for whatever reason I can only get so excited about a movie without some footage to go on, with a few exceptions. Even in the exceptions, though, the first trailer/clip always adds a new edge to the anticipation.
