If I opened a fb account and had access to all my ex boyfriends facebooks, that would be an extremely major distraction that I cannot afford. If you are by any chance discussing Romance & Cigarettes, though, I might cave ;) Meredith https://www.blogger.com/profile/11361935408436355904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-30775740813940147902015-12-10T07:33:22.666-06:002015-12-10T07:33:22.666-06:00You sound very cool Meredith!

What an ordeal you're going through, I hope you're feeling well and feisty :) I thought there were a ton of problems and missing pieces in SW/Huntsman but as I wrote, the super feminine-y things about the visuals, which made it a totally new movie experience for me, and the characters' potential to have really deep story lines in the sequels made it a win. I was truly looking forward to the director's sequel. Now there's a new director - I don't know what to expect. I don't go to regular action-y CGi movies. What do you think?

Beca...<i>X-Men: Apocalypse</i> comes out next year, right? Because <i>X-Men: Apocalypse</i> totally comes out next year. (As does <i>Deadpool</i>, as noted above.) <br /><br />Now, I grew up on <i>Star Trek</i>, to the degree that it (especially <i>TNG</i>) will always be a part of me, but <i>Into Darkness</i> pretty much killed my enthusiasm for 09's <i>XI</i>, so even though it's the franchise's 50th anniversary year, I'm not much interested in <i>Beyond</i>. (Indeed, I'm far from convinced the <i>Trek</i> franchise should continue/expand indefinitely.) And though I'm a big-time MCU fan, as a non-comics guy, I don't (yet) give a flip about <i>Doctor Strange</i>, either. So I'm definitely looking forward to <i>Apocalypse</i> as much as any movie next year, right up there with <i>Civil War</i>. <br /><br />(Myself, I don't care if it's a franchise/existing-IP project or not, I'll take a good movie based on pre-existing material over an average "original" one any day.) <br /><br />Also, I feel obligated to point out that, even though I haven't enjoyed any of her movies in years, there are several Rachel Weisz joints coming out next year, including one which sounds <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Light_Between_Oceans_(film)" rel="nofollow">hopelessly artsy-fartsy</a> but co-stars Fassbender and Vikander, which has to be worth considering on that trio alone, no?Gaithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07025861553487915665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-12501631459531180952015-12-04T15:51:35.010-06:002015-12-04T15:51:35.010-06:00YEP, there is!YEP, there is!Chaybeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00696179838579647187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-44732093139169819192015-12-04T15:03:57.321-06:002015-12-04T15:03:57.321-06:00I'm trying to find the words...to tell you how...I'm trying to find the words...to tell you how excited I am for that.

I LOVED that. You're so right - Rupert Sander's movie was GORGEOUS. What really struck me about it was all the special effects seemed to have - in color or symbolism- a really feminine quality to them, and I've never seen that with CGI before. I've never even liked CGI before! But I liked it a LOT. Florence Welch didn't pop out anywhere in the movie, that was a little disappointing for me personally. But Kristen Stewart barely had any lines, so that was a very very smart choice by her boyfriend director. I hope not too many of the good elements are stripped away as you say in the sequel.

The trailer for the trailer was actually better. Either way im all in and will be there day one. Good list. I found out about some films I wasn't aware of. Ryan Gosling in a 70's porn crime drama gets my intention. Not happy to here that Justin lin is directing Star trek. I was fine with JJ Abrams.<br /><br />I think I enjoy the look of Snow White and the Huntsman more than the actual movie. Im reminded of this every time I go back too it. This sequel or prequel is keeping the best part of that movie and that's Chris Hemsworth as the Huntsman.

Then I'll revisit the list every now and then to see what's happening with them. I've got about 150 titles in there now although some will probably never see the light of day, unfortunately, as they played 1 maybe 2 festivals and never got picked up for distro. (Why don't more filmmakers use online outlets to release their films even if they don't get picked up? In this day in age there should be a bunch of websites where you can rent these movies for 5 bucks or something. Hell, it seems you can get just about anything on Amazon now. Maybe there are more variables involved that I'm overlooking)<br /><br />Right on for Sun Choke! I know next to nothing about it and want to keep it that way but glad to hear it sounds like it's worth the anticipation.

Ben Affleck looks good as Bruce Wayne/Batman, but hopefully the movie itself has a few tricks up its sleeve and is better than the trailer would suggest.<br /><br />At any rate, I'm on board with almost all of this list. I think Captain America: Civil War; Hail, Ceaser!; and John Wick 2 are my top 3 most anticipated movies at the moment. we shall see!John Murphyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08810774557887719483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-32311214336164078832015-12-04T06:39:18.347-06:002015-12-04T06:39:18.347-06:00Great list.
