What are you looking forward to? ---

> [@Khadaji](#): > > Pirates of the Carribean Me too. Is it my imagination or did they push the premier date back? I had it on my calendar for today, Memorial Day, but maybe I got it mixed up with **X-Men III**. Unless they did push it back because of X-Men? ---

Spider Man 3. I know it comes out next summer. I’m a geek. As for this summer: Superman Returns Pirates of the Carribean The new Clerks movie. After the Clerks cartoon and Spider Man and the Black Cat, the dude can do no wrong. As for Ghost Rider, I _may_ rent that one. I never liked the Johnny Blaze GR and I friggin’ hate Nicholas Cage. ---

Oh, Pirates, definitely. And, yes, I’m a little bit afraid it might be as bad as sequels often are. I sure hope not. CARS We’re making a family outing of this one. There’s one more, and I can’t think of it. I think it’s another animated one. Maybe it’ll come to me soon. ---

I’ve been waiting for [_A Scanner Darkly_](http://www.apple.com/trailers/warner_independent_pictures/ascannerdarkly/) for nine years. I am optimistic about it. ---

Get ready, this is a long list… **The Break Up** (getting terrible reviews but I like Vince Vaughn & Jon Favreau) **Cars** (Pixar is hit and miss for me but this looks alright) **Heart of the Game** (doc about girls basketball…it’s getting great reviews) **The Lake House** (shut up, I like romantic movies) **The Road to Guantanamo** (I’ve heard good things) **Superman Returns** (it’s superman…) **POTC: Dead Mans Chest** (I’m worried but I enjoyed the first one) **A Scanner Darkly** (like the director, have been excited for a while) **Lady of the Water** (Paul Giamatti is in it) **You, Me, and Dupree** (Owen Wilson is in it) **My Super Ex Girlfriend** (my super future girlfriend is in it) **I could never be your woman** (Amy Heckerling, Tracy Ullman…looks neat) **Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby** (it has Sacha Baron Coen) **The Ant Bully** (funny concept though not unique) **The Science of Sleep** (Michel Gondry, Gael Garcia Bernal…it looks pretty good) **World Trade Center** (Oliver Stone gets one more chance) **Snakes on a Plane** (I get the feeling it’ll be really dumb but it’s snakes on a plane…) **Invincible** (heaven help me, I like football movies) **Miami Vice** (I have faith in Michael Mann) **Clerks II** (the reviews were pretty good at Cannes - which was surprising to say the least) **The Illusionist** (A fight to the death. I love Edward Norton and Hate Jessica Biel. Lets see who wins!) I left off two Meryl Streep movies ( **A Prairie Home Companion** and **The Devil Wears Prada** ) that I don’t really want to see except for the fact that Meryl Streep is in them. I’ll probably see them if word to mouth is good. ---
