For me...right now...I honestly dont know of much that is coming out, but one movie I have been really waiting for and will try to see opening day is..

SIN CITY

I believe in Robert Rodriguez.

Now there are other movies that I am interested in....but not sure if I am going to see them at the theatre or not.

-The Longest yard (hate adam sandler all you want, but this looks alright, and chris rock is the man......i wish nelly wasnt in it tho)

-War of the Worlds (i dont know, looks like it could be good)

-Chronicles of Narnia (looks interesting i guess...nope, never read the books)

Maybes

-Alone in the dark (eh? i dont know...RE2 was so bad, that im kinda worried about this one)

-Fantastic Four (i dont know...il probably see it just cause my future wife is in it.)

So what movies are yall looking forward to gaffers? I know i havent listed many cause I dont know of much that is coming out honestly.

peace

Eh I don't know. Wasn't there a recent thread about this? Yes, I'm sure there was.

But I still say let this thread live.

Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith - last chance to see a new SW movie in theaters (probably). Plus it just looks and sounds fucking awesome. Hope it's as good as it all sounds up to now.

Batman Begins - Lots of talent with this one. Always thought Ra's would make a great villain for the movies if done properly as well. Can't wait.

Theoretical Magician
King Kong
Peter Jackson is one of the most talented directors in Hollywood, and I love the 30's.

The Brothers Grimm
Gilliam's back and he is bringing Monica Bellucci with him.

The New World
I love Terrence Malick's directing and I've liked all of Colin Farrell movies. Christopher Plummer is the greatest actor alive today. The setting is the biggest draw for me.

The Island
I know a Micheal Bay film. But Scarlet Johansson will make me take a look. Seems very 1984 or Brave New World

War of the Worlds
Speilberg and Cruise in a scifi epic. Hope Speilberg doesn't try too hard to make it his own by changing the basic story.

Batman Begins
Finally got rid of Joel Schumacher. And the heavens rejoice

Hitchhikers guide to the Galaxy
Finally

Kingdom of Heaven
Ridley Scott, Jeremy Irons Liam Neeson and David Thewlis. Should be good if not great.

I want to see Star Wars. Not because I'm looking forward to it. I hope it fucking tanks.

Of the 'big' releases, The New World looks promising. Always bet on Terrence Malick.

I got some kind of movie credit card thingy that I can get 4 adult movie tickets for any movie until April 30, 2005. So I need recommendations on what may be good quality movies and pick 4 among them. I don't pay much attention to the names working on these films so I'm not knowledgeable enough to be a film critic. I can only get plot synopsis and other vague stuff through Google.

Maybe Star Wars. I'm not a huge fan, but my brother is and I have a feeling he's going to ask me along with him when he sees it.

Otherwise, I don't go to theatres much. I prefer to watch movies in my own home. I know I'll never exactly recreate the widescreen, surround-sound setup, but I'm okay with that. It costs too much.
