With only a few weeks later of the year and just a few movies left worth seeing, it's time to look forward to the future. 2012! A lot of big movies are coming out next year that I'm sure a lot of us want to see or are curious about. So, let's get to it. What movies are you looking forward to that are coming out next year?
Here's my list:
The Woman in Black
The Secret World of Arrietty
Dr. Seuss' The Lorax
Mirror Mirror
The Pirates! Band of Misfits
The Avengers
Battleship (I must hear Liam Neeson say "You sunk my battleship!")
Snow White & the Huntsman (No one will be seeing this here. Someone has to)
Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Hunter
Brave
The Amazing Spider-Man
The Dark Knight Rises
ParaNorman
Rise of the Guardians
Piranha 3DD
PROMETHEUS (!!!!)
THE AVENGERS
BRAVE
Maybe CABIN IN THE WOODS
I imagine I'll probably go to DARK KNIGHT RISES but I'm not looking forward to it nearly as much as I was to TDK.
The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey. They're shooting the whole thing at 48 frames per second.
The Expendables 2
The Great Gatsby
Piranha 3DD
I'm hoping on Thankskilling 2, but no release has been announced yet
There's not much coming that I know about that looks good to me.
The Dark Knight Rises
Plan 9
The Expendables 2
The Great Gatsby - I kinda lucked the version 1974 verison of the film, not one of my favorites but I did like it, and it's one of my favorite books
So far:
Men in Black 3
Amazing Spider-Man
The Avengers
Dark Knight Rises

Men in Black 3
I saw that Emma Thompson is in that: that's enough reason for me to see it. :teddyr:
Maybe Dark Knight Rises, maybe the Great Gatsby, maybe the Expendables 2. MAYBE...
The only new movie I'm excited about is Father's Day. :smile:
Nothing.
Likely nothing since I don't live near a theater but even if I did, there's very little mentioned here I'd be excited about seeing. The only that really interests me at all is The Avengers.
I don't know of anything I'm interested in seeing. Maybe The Expendables 2 but I'll probably wait for the DVD.
I'm looking forward to less remakes and more original films.

Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Hunter
wait...what?
It's based off a book where Lincoln worked secretly as a vampire hunter. Here's the info:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abraham_Lincoln:_Vampire_Hunter_(film) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abraham_Lincoln:_Vampire_Hunter_(film))
Sort of reminds of George Washington Werewolf and "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies", which is also getting an adaption sometime in the future!
Because I saw the trailer for "Snow White and the Huntsman," I have plans on seeing that in 2012, if only because from the trailer, I think it is going to suck mightily.
And anytime Pixar releases a new film I'm there, so I have plans to see "Brave."
And that's it at this time. Of course, things will most likely change, as I become aware of what else will be released in 2012.
Is that Prometheus movie coming out next year? I might see that. Some sort of Alien prequel or sequel or something.
I'm willing to bet that during 2012 I will watch more movies released between 1970 and 1980 than movies released in 2012.
Amazing Spider-Man
The Avengers
Dark Knight Rises
Underworld: Awakening
Declaration of War
Haywire
Argo
Dog Fight
Django Unchained
The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey
World War Z
Skyfall
Wreck-It Ralph
The Grey
Undecided about 47 Ronin. On the one hand it's an awesome story and I'm always up for a great samurai epic. On the other hand it looks like it's going to be in 3D and will star Keanu Reeves.

Yeah, that's next June. Takes place in the ALIEN universe, may or may not be a prequel. I'm definitely seeing it.

Piranha 3DD
Haywire
Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance
Batman: The Dark Knight Rises
Maybe:
Underworld 4
The Grey
Jack the Giant Killer
The Expendables 2
Resident Evil: Retribution
And really anything else that looks good.

I'm not saying it doesn't look good, but I just read something in an article that bothered me:
QuoteScott talked about how making sci-fi movies had changed since he last tackled the genre. A man in a rubber suit played the alien in Alien, "but today you can pretty much do anything you want" with digital technology, he said.
Seriously? Did anyone watch Alien and think "yeah that was OK, but imagine how much better it would be with a bunch of CGI"?!? Ugh.
I'll be checking this out as soon as it hits DVD :teddyr:

I've been rethinking this and the only movie that I cannot wait until they come out on DVD to see is The Dark Knight Rises
