V For Vendetta
Pirates of the Caribbean 2
X-Men 3 (even though I don’t expect it to be very good)
Superman Returns
Sin City 2 Southland Tales (a sci-fi/musical/action comedy from the director of Donnie Darko, starring Sarah Michelle Gellar and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson) The Departed (Scorsese’s latest, a remake of the Korean noir film Internal Affairs)
Tenacious D and The Pick of Destiny
Snakes on a Plane
Underworld Evolution. Especially since it has Derek Jacobi in it. X-Men 3 also. I haven’t read much about it, is it supposed to be bad?
I was looking forward to Nanny McPheee until I saw the trailer, now I’m not so sure. Firewall, to see Paul Bettany. The Da Vinci Code Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest Lady in the Water - M. Night Shyamalan plus Paul Giamtti!
If it were being directed by anyone but Uwe Boll, I’d be right there with you. As it is, I’ll have to wait and see that one.
My list:
Underworld Evolution.
X-Men 3
The Da Vinci Code
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest
V For Vendetta
Superman Returns
Sin City 2
Snakes on a Plane - How could this one possibly go wrong?
I’m sure the next entries in the X-Men (the last, I think) and Pirates of the Caribbean franchises will be fun. Not much else I’m looking forward to. I’m intrigued by the trailer for The Lady in the Water, but I’m not a Shyamalan fan. I guess I’ll end up seeing it.
Yeah, it’s not the lack of Brian Singer that worries me as much as it is the addition of Brett “Do you understand the words that are coming out of my mouth” Ratner.
Though on the plus side, it means Superman Returns should be good.
X-Men 3- I really liked the first two (part two is one of the bet comic films of all-time) but chalk me up as concerned.
Superman Returns- I hope it is rated PG.
The Da Vinci Code- The book was cheesy but fun. The film should be better. It is a great premise that will eliminate Brown’s poor prose and probably be the text book example of the book being better than the film. And did they NAIL the cast and crew? “Potsy” as the director and 100% perfect casting.
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest- I hope it is as much fun as the first one.
Yes on the second correction. I got that backwards. No on the first one. It is a Simpson joke that I have to explain everytime I refer to Ron Howard as Potsie, yet I keep swinging!
Explanation: Homer gets a job as Alec Baldwin and Kim Bassinger’s personal assistant. Ron Howard is a friend that hangs out with them. Homer runs his mouth and people find out they are all in Springfield. The celebs say “someone” must have blabbed (indicating Homer), and he turns to Howard and says “I’m looking at you, Potsie!”
No one thinks this joke is worth the effort but it will not be the last time I am corrected, because I will strike again.
