im still catching up on movies from last year, so im not even looking forward to this year yet.

heres a list of 'sure bets' this year though:
http://insidemovies.moviefone.com/2010/01/08/2010-movie-preview/

EDIT:
after browsing that list i would say:
'Alice in Wonderland'
'Iron Man 2'
'Toy Story 3'
'Kick-Ass'
'Tron: Legacy'
'Clash of the Titans'
'Robin Hood'
'Prince of Persia: The Sand of Time'
'The A-Team'
'The Expendables'
'Edge of Darkness'
'The Wolfman'
'Nightmare on Elm Street'

most of these im not super excited about but i will still watch them in theaters. probably sneak into them

dude i'm prepared to throw something at someone if that remake of nightmare on elm st. sucks like the remakes of texas chainsaw and friday the thirteenth. michael bay needs to be spit on.

i forgot about prince of persia and tron.

funny story. i met the chick from the original tron at a horror/comic convention, and she was mad that i asked her to sign that, saying that she was more proud of being the judges slutty daughter in caddyshack lol

I forgot how many amazing movies are coming out in so short a time! I hope I don`t miss any in the theatre as i`ll be away for training for a big chunk of summer. How long do these big movies generally stay in theatres anyway?

Kick-Ass and Expendables. Everything else can go die.

SH, big movies usually stay in theathers for 6 hours before they're out on DVD

Posted: Jan 14 2010 08:47 pm

You can add 'Macgruber' to this list.

Though it probably will fall somewhere between Night at The Roxbury and Wayne's World, I don't expect this movie to be as bad as Superstar or It's Pat.

Posted: Jan 26 2010 07:27 pm

Expendables, Iron Man 2, Tron, and Kick-Ass look awesome. Edge of Darkness too, but that's out this week. Toy Story 3 should be good.

But here's a big fuck you to:

Clash of the Titans
A-Team
Alice In Wonderland
Prince of Persia
The Wolfman
Nightmare on Elm Street

I will not see ANY of those. Not in theaters, and not on DVD.

I know they aren't all summer movies, but I hate just looking forward to the summer, so I just listed the only movies at this point I give a damn about seeing this year:

The Expendables
Hearafter
Inception
Iron Man 2
Shutter Island

I can't even think of anything else that's worth mentioning at this time.

They all look completely fucking terrible?

Wolfman, especially. The Wolfman is like the easiest story in the world not to fuck up. It's straightforward and fun, and they've turned it into this long, pretentious looking piece of shit with an award-winning cast. Yawn.

I had high hopes for Prince of Persia until I saw the trailer. Jake Gyllenhaal is completely unconvincing as the titular prince. Jake should be embarrassed; I was certainly embarrassed for him while watching the trailer.

I think it's a bit early to judge Nightmare, but the rest you are probably right on.

Shutter Island looks like absolute garbage. At first I see "Oh a Scorcese movie without "Gimme Shelter" playing in the trailer and no Italian Americans snorting cocaine and fighting, this has to be good" but it looks to be full of cheese. Especially the way DiCaprio says "This is a hospital..............for the criminally insane!!". Gay.

I've been seeing trailers for Shutter Island since December 2008, why isn't it out yet?

Because it's gay.

Motherfuckers need to lay off the A-Team.

Magnum P.I. needs a movie.

I'll bite. If not Tom Selleck, who would you want to play Magnum P.I.?

Joined: Oct 01 2009 Posts: 5316

Ving Rhames

Posted: Jan 27 2010 11:22 pm

Tom Sizemore should play Magnum.

Seriously, do we need to post the trailer of them shooting at a jet fighter from a parachuting tank again, nonbeliever?
