Is yours on the list?

STAR TREK! 8D

*Has been and will always been a Trekkie, ever since the old school classic days of Star Trek: The Next Generation :3 *

[shadow_Uzumaki]

Added something else, reminds me of a twisted, Tim Burton LittleBigPlanet

[desaix]

There were a few on there. Watchmen, Star Trek, Transformers, maybe Avatar (even though I never got into the original series), maybe GI Joe: Rise of Cobra (this is the first I've heard about this movie, but considering the source material it could be either ghastly or very entertaining... or both, the way the last Transformers movie was), Night at the Museum (hopefully they won't ruin it), and... wait, Astro Boy wasn't on the list? :what:

I'm wondering just how bad Sherlock Holmes is going to be, considering how horribly miscast Robert Downey Jr. is in that role (yes, they both took drugs, but that's the end of all similarities between them, and I don't think ANYONE has the ability to re-make himself the way Downey will have to in order to play Sherlock).

Where the Wild Things Are MIGHT be interesting, but since I don't recall their being enough 'meat' to the original children's book to make a movie around, I gotta wonder what they're going to do with it.

I may have to see Land of the Lost, since I remember being a big fan when I was a kid growing up and it was on in syndication, but since it seems it's being given the Will Farrell treatment, my radar is giving me a BIG 'Don't Even Think About It! Stay Away!"

Also a bit surprised Dragonball wasn't on the list, even though I'm expecting it to bust -- it looks like it's being given the star treatment, however bad the trailer is making it look to fans of the original series, so I'd think it would factor in on a 'Most Anticipated Movies' list.

Interesting movie year this year, regardless. Not quite as good as last year was (IMO), perhaps, but it looks decent.

[FullmetalNinja25]

My Top 10 Most Anticipated Movies of 2009:

1.) Watchmen
2.) Star Trek
3.) Transformers: Rise Of The Fallen
4.) Up
5.) Inglorious Bastards
6.) Terminator Salvation
7.) Sherlock Holmes
8.) Avatar
9.) Dragon Ball
10.) Gi Joe: Rise Of Cobra

Some of them are filler since I'm not that knowledgeable about some of the movies coming out this year, oh and desaix this Avatar is not based upon Avatar: The Last Airbender, M Night Shyamalan is directing that.

Could someone list the movies in that link, since Yahoo and my computer doesn't get along for some reasons, so I can't see anything.

[Derock]

OMG?!!!

Did I just see Land of the Lost aka the ABC Saturday morning show on the list? I haven't seen that show in YEARS!

Anyways, I want to see G.I. Joe, Harry Potter, X-Men: Wolverine Origins, Angels and Demons and The Princess and the Frog.

[Kirby]

Hm...Imma watch Harry Potter (I think this one'll be good coz it good delayed), Transformers (maybe...might not, coz of two younger bros). I might watch the balloon house thingy (if its any good). Might watch X-Men, and does Watchmen include Batman?

[emilykawaii123]

Another Night At the Museum? The first one was awkward enough....

[Paradox Jast]

I'm not really into seeing Watchmen, but it might be interesting.

Fast & Furious, definitely.

X-Men Origins: Wolverine, definitely.

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, definitely.

Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, if only because I've seen all the others so far. (I can officially say 'Emma Watson, mmmmm' and not feel like a pedo now)

G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra looks interesting, if nothing else.

Avatar... we'll see.

[Anewhope2]

I'm wondering just how bad Sherlock Holmes is going to be, considering how horribly miscast Robert Downey Jr. is in that role (yes, they both took drugs, but that's the end of all similarities between them, and I don't think ANYONE has the ability to re-make himself the way Downey will have to in order to play Sherlock).

Jeez.. If I was the person who casts people into roles, The first person I'll ask to play as Holmes is..

Hugh Laurie

Why? --Click here to view--

Because I watched some of his other roles, and he has a strong British accent, plus he looks a lot like Sherlock. Not to mention he's a great actor!

[shadow_Uzumaki]

Watchmen isn't related to Batman at all I think. I would watch Half-Blood Prince because the trailer looked good, but the fact that HarryxGinny occurs in that part of the series means I really won't.... Trust me, I'm that picky about pairings. I can't believe Avatar: The Last Airbender isn't in the list, maybe to soon to tell?

nah, but at first glimpse in the trailer, its easy to mistake Nightowl for batman. But Watchmen doesn't take place in the same universe as Batman, Superman etc.

[psycho666]

I am definitely looking forward to the new one by Pixar, their animations have always been good, even the money makers. I also am excited about Watchmen as a superhero/graphic novel fanatic myself along with perhaps some of the comedies such as Funny People since I think a lot of their stuff have been pretty funny. Either way it seems like we have quite the interesting lot this year.

[MagusKyros]

Judging by the name of the Transformers sequal, it's going to sound pretty lame, especially since how the first movie ended :\

[Jwolf0]

Hugh Laurie

Why? --Click here to view--

Because I watched some of his other roles, and he has a strong British accent, plus he looks a lot like Sherlock. Not to mention he's a great actor!

Well... --Click here to view--

Um, that's because he actually IS British. Story is that David Shore didn't even realize that Hugh Laurie was British until after he was cast, his American accent was so good. I read somewhere that House and Wilson were supposed to have a Holmes/Watson feel to their relationship as well.

I wouldn't mind seeing him in that role, although I must admit I didn't think Robert Downey Jr. would do that well as Tony Stark (I was wrong there) so I'll give him a mulligan.

As for my short list of movies, Watchmen and probably the next HP movie. I liked 'Night at the Museum,' but I'm squeamish about seeing how they'll stretch another movie out of the premise.

[Nee-sama]

Hee hee am I the only one looking forward to another installment of Ice Age? Ah well at least I know my beau will want to watch it with me!

[Melancholy Vixen]

For some reason I really want to see "Up."

And the Ice Age one. I love Ice Age. XD

sdkajfklsjakw AND TRANSFORMERS. But I don't think they could match the absolute awesomeness of the first movie.

[Zatren6]

Kinda excited for Transformers and Harry Potter, but I'm not a huge movie person, so I dunno when I'll see them... XD
