Upcoming Movies

When boredom takes me, I like to peruse trailers on imdb, and I have to say that there are a lot of good looking things on the way.

1. Iron Man
IMDb Video: Video for Iron Man

I'm usually very sceptical about Marvel comic adaptations as they are either hit or miss. I enjoyed spiderman and xmen, but daredevil sucked big time.

This looks really quite amusing, and I can't wait to see it!

2. Sweeny Todd

IMDb Video: Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street

Ahh, what is life without a Tim Burton movie? Its dark, funny and has Jonny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter! Yes, its a musical, but it looks like it could be a classic.

3. The Dark Knight

IMDb Video: Video for The Dark Knight

I was extremely sceptical when I heard about the last Batman movie. For me, the first was always the best. Bale did an excellent job of being the caped crusader, and it seemed to back to the original darkness that Burton had created. This new movie sounds intreguing, and I might even risk going to the cinema to see it

4. The Golden Compass

IMDb Video: The Golden Compass

I don't know if anyone else has read the books, but they are unbelievably awesome! In my opinion, they are even better than Harry Potter (I'll wait for the hate mail). It is very dark, and much more adult, and it has war bears

5. I am Legend

IMDb Video: I Am Legend

I bought the Matheson book before I heard about the movie (god bless those Amazon recommendations). It is reasonably short for a sci-fi classic, but it is so much deeper and a study of the human psyche than anything else in the genre. Will Smith seems to be an unusual choice for the lead, but I love him so of course will watch this.

6. Hitman

IMDb Video: Hitman Trailer

I accidentally stumbled across the trailer for this a while ago, and thought it looked awesome! If I had herd about the movie first, I might have avoided it as its not a game that immediately springs to mind for an adaptation. Looks good ^^

So, anything else people are looking forwards to?

Aside from those, I'm also looking forward to "Meet the Spartans". I have a strong feeling that it was made by the guys who did all the other parodies (my brother pretty much nailed Epic Movie by saying all the funny parts were just in the trailer alone).

As for Hitman, I haven't played the games (my friends have though) but I'm hoping it can live up to any fan expectations. Also, I had thought I Am Legend was another "inspirational" movie until my brother had read the book as well and told me about what it was.

Juno (2007)
Now i loved Ellen Page in the movie Hard Candy and this indie treat seems to be getting great reviews. Cannot wait to see it.

The Mist (2007)
And of course being a sucker for horror films i am going to see this. Stephen King can always send chills up my spine just be not telling you what is out there.

I've been wanting to see Juno since it looked cute but I have yet too. The thing that surprised me was that Juno was at more theaters than Sweeney Todd. I just saw Sweeney Todd.... Magnificent!!

Lol.. it was amazing.. I had this whole thing to get into over it cause I was all excited about it... but the site was down.. and now I'm tired lol so I've lost a bit of that 'umph' but I loved that movie. The actors I thought did an excellent job and the singing, Oh the singing! Awesomeness... pure awesomeness.. ^-^; -melts to Johnny Depp's singing then tackles him and steals him away from the world- @.@ mine... lol ^-^;; Ok.. lil over the top but yeah.. it was nifty.
