This monkey's face says it all. Utter confusion. He or she is clearly confused about what movies are coming up this spring, summer, fall, and winter. Luckily, I contain that information...or the internet does-something like that. Well here are some movies that I'm looking forward to in the upcoming calendar year ( early april and beyond).
Date Night- This literally came out a few days ago, but I'm interested in seeing how well Steve Carell and Tina Fey can do off the television screen. They're both hella funny, so I hope all works out well. This movie is directed by Shawn Levy though, and he sucks at directing. Not really, but his track record isn't very good.
Kick-Ass (4/15)- Ok, I'm not exactly pumped to see this, but it's gotten good reviews so far. It could be Tarantino-esque, or it could be total shit. There's a little bit of mystery as to how it will be recieved, but it should be entertaining nonetheless.
The Losers (4/23)- I'm not excited to see this. It looks annoying--check out the trailer
A Nightmare on Elm Street (4/30)- A remake of a classic horror pick. However, it's directed by Michael Bay. That's reason enough for me to not see it (he directed Transformers 2, which was just loud as hell).
Iron Man 2 (5/7)- I'm just not sure if anyone is excited to see this. I've tried watching the first Iron Man about six times now, and I have not made it through yet. I'm just not sure this sequel will be any better.
Robin Hood (5/14)- Again another reamake. This one is led by Russell Crowe and directed by Ridley Scott. This looks like it is more violent than a Robin Hood should be, but it could be a real good movie, if done right. I can only hope.
MacGruber (5/21)- Coming from the maybe popular SNL skits with the same title. It should be funny. I'm not sure the critics will like it, but it may be good for a zone-out movie.
Shrek: Forever After (5/21)- The last movie in the Shrek series? Who knows. I've stopped watching them, but hopefully the small lapse in release times for this series won't affect its fan base at all.
Sex and the City 2 (5/27)- Don't go.
Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time (5/28)- Beefed up Jake Gyllenhal! Oh joy! Can't wait! No seriously, I have mixed feelings. It'll probably suck, but who ever knows when Jerry Bruckheimer is directing. It's also a Disney movie, which could make it less intense than it could be.
Get Him to the Greek (6/4)- The 'sequel' to Forgetting Sarah Marshall. It looks to be incredibly funny. I'm excited.
Marmaduke (6/4)- Cartoon dog voiced by Owen Wilson? yes, please!
The A-Team (6/11)- Bradley Cooper, Liam Neeson, Quentin 'Rampage' Jackson, and Sharlto Copley relive this oldie but goodie. I'm super pumped to see this!
The Karate Kid (6/11)- Jackie Chan and Will Smith's little youngin'. I didn't take this seriously at first, but it looks kind of sweet. I may actually check this out.
Toy Story 3 (6/18)- Why wouldn't anyone want to come see this? It's Toy Story!!! This has to be one of the most anticipated movies of 2010.
NOT TWILIGHT'S ECLIPSE!! HA!!
The Last Airbender (7/2) Not is this only my birthday, but this movie seems to be gaining a lot of hype. M. Night Shamyayay.aylayalalan is taking another chance at making a good movie, let's hope it works out.
Predators (7/7)- This looks to be super intense. It's led by Adrian Brody and Laurence Fishbourne. Check out the trailer if you already haven't, cause this could be a goodie.
Despicable Me (7/9)- This is my pick for best animated pick of the year. This should be a great comedy with a loaded cast. Absolutely loaded. Cannot wait till I get to see it.
Inception (7/16)- I don't know if you've seen trailers for this, but it looks to be one hell of a mental thriller. It has Leo Dicaprio and Ellen Page and little itty-bitty Joseph Gordon-Levitt. This cast is directed by Christopher Nolan. Should be a doozy.
Dinner for Schmucks (7/23)- This should be a solid comedy with Steve Carell and Paul Rudd. Those two alone are reason enough to see it.
Salt (7/23)- All I know about it is that it stars Angelina Jolie, and I think it's a superhero-ish movie. It seems to be good though from what I've heard.
The Adjustment Bureau (7/30)- I hadn't heard of this until I wrote this, but apparently it stars Matt Damon and he gets a glimpse into his future and wants something else. It also stars Anthony Mackie and Emily Blunt. Seems pretty good.
I Love You Philip Morris (7/30)-If you want to see a different Jim Carrey; here ya go. This was supposed to come out in February.
The Other Guys (8/6)- The next in line for Will Ferrell and his entourage, if you will. I just checked out the trailer, and it looks pretty funny. Hopefully Will doesn't stink it up as he did in Land of the Lost.
...apparently there is a Step Up coming in 3d on 8/6
Eat, Pray, Love (8/13)- Seems really interesting, check it out. It has that 'Into the Wild' feel to it.
Scott Pilgrim vs. The World (8/13)- Michael Cera's next movie. I think it's some type of blend of awkward annoying Michael Cera and action star Michael Cera. Could be a good one. You definitely get the video game vibe just by watching the trailer. Check it out.
The Switch (8/20)- This one stars Jason Bateman and Jennifer Aniston. Apparently it involved Bateman's character swapping sperm with another guy? Something like that? Hopefully it's funny.
The American (9/1)-An apparent suspense thriller starring Geroge Clooney. Sounds interesting already.
Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole (9/24)- This looks super sweet. An animated flick about owls. Not just regular ones, some pretty badass owls. Good song in the trailer as well.
Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps (9/24)- This looks to be pretty interesting. It stars Shia LaBeouf, Carey Mulligan, Michael Douglas, and Josh Brolin. Directed by Oliver Stone.
The Social Network (10/1)- Drama starring Jesse Eisenberg and yes, Justin Timberlake. We'll see how that goes.
Your Highness (10/1)- Adventure comedy starring Danny McBride, Zooey Deschanel, and James Franco. By the looks of it, it should be pretty funny.
The Zookeeper (10/8)- Comedy starring Kevin James and Rosario Dawson. Let's hope it's not anything like Paul Blart
apparently around the 15th or 22nd of October there will be a jackass 3D movie and a sequel to Paranormal Activity.
AND A SAW 7! IN 3D!. That should suck.
Due Date (11/5)- Comedy starring Robert Downey Jr. and Zach Galifianakis about a first-time father being stuck on a plane with a complete idiot.
Megamind (11/5)- Big time animated flick starring Will Ferrell.
Unstoppable (11/12)- Another train thriller with Denzel Washington and Chris Pine. Hopefully it's not like Pelham at all.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 (11/19)- The beginning of the end.
These Next Three Days (11/19)-Thriller starring Russell Crowe and Elizabeth Banks.
Tron Legacy (12/17)- Animated feature featuring Jeff Bridges that's supposed to be unlike anything we've seen yet.
Yogi Bear (12/17)- I can't believe this is coming out, let's hope it's good.
The Green Hornet (12/22)- Seth Rogen as an action hero? I'm pumped to see how it plays out.
Little Fockers (12/22)- The third in this line of pretty funny movies.
Gulliver's Travels (12/22)- Animated movie featuring Jack Black and Jason Segel.
True Grit (12/25)- Drama/Western starring Matt Damon, Jeff Bridges, Josh Brolin and directed by the Coen Brothers, whose last western won them an oscar (No Country For Old Men).
IT'S OVER!! Finally! There ya have it, though. That should be all that's new and good in movies this upcoming calendar year. If you've made it this far in the article, I applaud you. You truly do care about what I'm writing. Thank you.
