Most Anticipated movies of 2009?

[Jedi Master Carr]

So what are yours? Here are mine, I will just pick a top 5 for now.

1 Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince
2 Public Enemies
3 Sherlock Holmes
4 The Watchmen
5 Terminator 4

[Lilaena De'Ville]

Star Trek! Terminator Salvation! Watchmen!

I'm sure there are others...

[Captain Untouchable]

Star Trek, Watchmen, Terminator; I wouldn't describe it as my "most anticipated", but I'm looking forward to Harry Potter and Wolverine as well. There's also a couple of Jason Statham films out (Transporter 3 and Crank 2, or something) which I'm bound to end up watching.

Aside from that though, I haven't seen all that many films due out next year that grab my attention, which is a shame.

[Crusader]

FANBOYS next month!!!

[Patience Darklighter]

How the hell are they having a Crank 2? That is stupid. The first one was stupid enough, but this is logic-defying.

I really want to see Star Trek, and also Defiance.

Using the 2009 wiki list Miss De'Ville linked to from the other thread:

* Star Trek
* X-Men Origins: Wolverine
* Harry Potter & the Half Blood Prince
* The Fast & The Furious (specifically, Vin's back for this one which is why I'm intrigued)
* Terminator: Salvation
* Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen
* GI Joe: The Rise of COBRA
* Astro Boy
* Fantastic Mr Fox (stop-motion film of Roald Dahl's classic tale)
* A Christmas Carol (Robert Zemeckis directing, Jim Carrey starring)
* Sherlock Holmes
* Avatar (James Cameron's first feature film since Titanic)
* The Princess & The Frog (Disney's return to traditional 2D animation after half a decade)

OOOOO A new Transformers movie? sign me up!

And BTW, pls stab yourself in the eyes if you want to see a F&F, those are excrement of the highest order and cause real drifters / racers no end of trouble.

Up!, new Pixar is definatly on the must see list. Plus Wolverine and Terminator. Nothing else really grabs me so far.

Just a trailer (http://www.apple.com/trailers/miramax/doubt/)but I was glued to it through its length. Hopefully the full movie is as interesting. Powerful actors at their best.

[Droo]

The only film I can think of that has me interested is Star Trek, and that's with some reservations. I've lost interest in the Harry Potter films since so much I hear about the direction they're being taken is discouraging.

However, I checked out the trailer and that scene from Doubt, and I would really like to check it out sometime. It looks very gripping indeed.

[I'nu]

Wolverine
Transformers

[J'ktal Anajii]

This new F&F intrigues me as it contains an '87 GNX.

And, yes, I have gone to see movies just for the cars, before.

[Mandy with an I]

The only movie I will probably see in theatres this year is the new Friday the 13th. Should make for an awesome Valentines Day weekend :cool

[The Original BuffJedi]

Friday the Thirteenth:counting down the days, and only hopes they did not screw it up , like Robb did with "Halloween" although I did enjoy it, it just was not what I wanted as a fan . I'm like Mandy, I'm sure it will be the only movie I see at the theater this year. Maybe F&F 4, but not sure.

From what I've seen in the trailer, it looks great. But I love that whole franchise, so I'm completely biased. :)

Terminator: Salvation
Wolverine

Fanboys
Star Trek
Metal Gear Solid (I've put this here due to IMDB stating it'll be this year, but since there's been no info released apart from Hideo Kojima writing it and Kurt Wimmer directing, who knows!)

[Crusader]

Nobody has mentioned the new Tarantino movie yet.

It's Good, not great but well worth 10 bucks. It didn't feel like a Jason movie, but yet it had the elements of it. You could at times forget you were watching a 13th movie until jason showed up. Some cool kills, and some good humor(the asian guy and the black guy). Too much T&A but it is a 13th movie lol!! the boring parts were too long and the best scene's were too short. Good acting (sans the redneck pot guy) Jason is a bad SON OF A GUN!!!!!!!! Mears did a great job IMHO. The getting the Mask scene was too simple, but worked. The opening was a great idea, but they didn't pull it off, but it needed to be there. The ending will remind you of a 13th movie. I really need to see it again before I could make an honset review due to the fact I was too busy critiqing(sp) it. But I really can't wait to see it again. It is a revison for sure aimed to this generation.

My Top Ten Picks of 2009:

10. Ninja Assassin (Rain, Naomie Harris)
09. Sherlock Holmes (Robert Downey, Jr, Jude Law)
08. Angels & Demons (Tom Hanks, Ewan McGregor)
07. Star Trek (Zachary Quinto, Simon Pegg, Winona Ryder)
06. The Wolfman (Benecio Del Toro, Anthony Hopkins)
05. The Watchmen (Patrick Wilson, Jackie Earle Haley)
04. Shutter Island (Leonardo Dicaprio, Jackie Earle Haley, SIr Ben Kingsley)
03. Public Enemies (Johnny Depp, Christian Bale)
02. Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (Duh)
01. Inglorious Basterds (Brad Pitt, Eli Roth)

These films are what I am OBSESSING about right now. I gaurantee at least 8 out of these 10 will be nominated for Oscars.

[Peter McCoy]

I'm not excited about Angels and Demons at all. I was disappointed with The DaVinci Code because it just didn't live up to the book. I know films are never as good as the books they're based on (Jaws being the exception for me, and to a lesser extent Jurassic Park - maybe Spielberg's just got it down) but I really didn't enjoy it. So rather than read the book first this time I'll wait and read it afterwards - sae the best 'til last, so to speak.

[Jesimae Lawson]

People got angry that Ron Howard's movie was too much like the book, which is kind of was! But I didn't think that was a bad thing??

[Jedi Master Carr]

The best thing about the movie though was Ian Mckellan chewing up the scenery. I guess its Ewan Mcgregor's turn in this one.

[Lykaios]

So here's the new Transformers (http://movies.yahoo.com/movie/1809943432/trailer)trailer. I remembered seeing it in a lot of lists so I thought I'd share.
