Going off the IMDB release list for this year:
#1 choice, hands down: Prometheus. (that looks awesome!)
Others that I've got good vibes about:
Brave
Bourne Legacy
The Dark Knight Rises
Looper
Skyfall
Others I'm interested in but could end up being real dogs:
The Avengers [don't hate me]
Chernobyl Diaries [yes, it's stupid, but it looks fun]
Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter [again, looks fun]
The Amazing Spiderman
Total Recall (remake)
The Expendables 2
7500
Wreck-It Ralph
Gravity
The Great Gatsby (Baz Luhrmann)
...Meanwhile, I just saw The Cabin in the Woods. That was fun. :)

I'll pay.

Went to see The Cabin in the Woods on opening day (Joss Whedon fan) and I recommend it. It pokes fun at most other horror movies while also being funny and gory.
In no particular order:
The Hobbit
The Avengers
Skyfall
The Amazing Spiderman
Dark Shadows (It makes fun of vampire movies and has Johnny Depp so I may watch it)
The Bourne Legacy
Prometheus
The Expendables 2
Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter (I am not ashamed)
The Dark Knight Rises
Resident Evil: Retribution
Looper (Looks damn interesting)
Elysium sounds like it might be interesting (from rumours).

Iron Sky (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1034314/) - It's a comedy/action/sci-fi about nazis who set up a base on the darkside of the moon and come back in 2018. The state side release date is currently in the works.

Oh, I heard about that one, but couldn't find much information about it. Isn't it German, or from somewhere else in Central Europe? Looks interesting, to say the least.

Prometheus

The Hobbit.
Nothing else really grabs my interest this year, I might watch The Avengers if I feel like switching my brain off.
Also, hi.

I never look forward to movies, and hate going to shows. I will watch a movie usually about a year after it's been released and I've had a chance to determine whether it's worth watching.
'The Hobbit' is coming out - I recall that now. My gods that will surely be dreadful. The recent LOTR was a good movie on it's own right (I could only stand the first one) but should be divorced from the books.
EDIT: I checked out Prometheus as the title intrigued me. Looks like some good dirty Sci Fi, which is the only type of movie I like to watch. Maybe I'll break my habit and actually go see it in the theaters.

I heard that they were remaking the 1976 Sci-Fi cult classic, LOGAN'S RUN...If this is true, then that's the one I'm all amped up to see...

Brave (It's pretty. And Celtic. And Pixar. There's very little there that I could hate)
The Hobbit (there may have been screaming when the trailer was released)

Prometheus sucked. Too many story elements.

Apologies in advance for grammar!fail and semi- incoherent/ has zero depth.
A/w, I find your initial assessment of the upcoming Hobbit films unnecessarily harsh and condescending
Of course you'd have to divorce your understanding of the books from the movies. They are two very different mediums, and should be treated accordingly. That being said, Perter Jackson and his fellow writers did take creative liberties with the original story to aid in their creation of a movie that would sell well, yet they still remained incredibly faithful to the text and ideas of Professor Tolkien- most of the dialogue is lifted straight from the source material.
They also wouldn't have gotten the original O.K. from the Tolkien estate if they hadn't felt confident about the work. The initial slow down on the Hobbit in regards to that area, was over money disputes between New Line and the Estate
I personally believe Peter Jackson and Weta have proven themselves more than adept at handeling the mythos of Middle Earth- I'm looking forward to them

I recently gave in and decided to go see Men in Black III with my son and for some reason was eerily interested in the person who played the character Boris (the Animal). The accent, the character himself, etc. Anyhoo, come to find out he was half of the duo, Flight of the Conchords, Jemaine Clement, which I had never seen or listened to, but remembered there being a TV show. I mentioned it to my boyfriend who got excited at the mention of FotC and the movies, because apparently they're supposed to be making one soon!
I can't even say whether it's in production yet, but I am going to hold on to the hope that the movie is coming soon.
Shortly after seeing MIB III, my BF bought me the season collection (there were only two and an HBO special) and I LOVED it! Can't wait to see a movie if they come out with one.
Ah, and supposed to finally go see Prometheus this weekend. :)

The new Spider-Man movie comes out tomorrow. I like both Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone should be a good watch. I'm also waiting for Skyfall the new James Bond movie with Daniel Craig, who plays a good Bond. Can't forget the Dark Knight Rises either.

The Hobbit II & III. The rest of the Avatars (blue people ones), and Identity Theft (not sure if that's the name, but it has this cute little fat lady in it)

Yes, no and no, respectively, but I do have proper respect for the fact that Tatum's exquisitely chiseled body turns Michelangelo's cheeks into convincing imitations of the dead sea, and would without hesitation further add that Channing was soullessly robbed by Time and Obama.

None. I've given up on movies, for the most part. The economic incentive is for the lowest common denominator, i.e. Sensor types, and so they hold little interest for me. I saw The Hobbit last night and it was entirely a sensory experience. There is no dialogue, little acting in the special effects were tiresome.

I would like to see Les Mis and Django on home video.
Also looking forward to Zero Dark Thirty.

UMMM...ive been informed that olivia munn's boobies are in one of the first few scenes... that would be plenty enough to keep me dreaming throughout the rest of the film.

absolutely Django - tarentino is amazingly entertaining.
i hate theaters (minus the popcorn) and it sucks to wait so long for the releases...but id agree cant wait for those (anne hathaway...nommy), sound like really really good films to catch. I feel like Ive passed up a lot of quality films this year...
damn you ISP warnings of piracy, damn you to hell. arrrr

Yeah, I honestly haven't seen a Tarantino film I did not like, although some resonate more with me. And the thing is, they are so darn fun! The guy just knows how to write witty revealing dialogue, as well as how to toss disparate objects into the same movie and make it all work somehow. He's so audacious.

I'm glad I have never seen nor read Les Mis, although I know the basic plot of the story. I think some people were upset by departures from the story/musical. I also heard they do waaaay too many closeups in the movie, especially for the big screen. hasn't he ever heard of the wide pan?

its the dialogue, the characters, the cinematography...its just all so unique and fresh compared to a lot of the cookie cutter, make a quick buck, hollywood dribble that has sort of infested the market the past decade. id have to agree, i cant remember a tarentino film i disliked.
im not usually a musical fan, but yea that film looks pretty inspiring. i heard they made the actors perform live singing within their scenes, usually its just dubbed over in most movies, but to me that might make it a lot more i dunno...real i suppose. quality cast, a classic plot, and some good ol rebellion, sounds like a good time.
