Terminator Salvation, Watchmen and Transformers 2 are my big pics.
Of course I'm a whore when it comes to shiny action packed blockbusters.

Really looking forward to this one myself. Excellent Director, Screenwriter & Cast.

Star Trek, Wolverine and Transformers 2 are the big ones i'm looking out for.

Coraline is due around February, which sounds excellent, even though I'm not the target audience. Same for Monsters vs Aliens and Up. I'm also hoping for good things from:
- The International, by the director of Run, Lola, Run, with Clive Owen and Naomi Watts
- Star Trek.
- Terminator: Salvation

I won't be going to see I Love You, Man, even though it features cameos by my favourite band (Rush). I've never cared much for "'bro-mance", I have to say... :eek:

Couple of great looking films in the first few months. Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Rachel Getting Married (which is meant to be fantastic), Synecdoche, New York (been too long since we've had some Charlie Kaufman craziness), The Wrestler, Milk and Che are all due out pretty soon.

Blockbuster terms, I await Watchmen with a mix of cautious optimism and extreme pessimism. Can't wait for Up either, after Pixar completely topped their own high standards with Wall-E.

And heres hoping Ponyo on the Cliff will make an English language release next year too (vaguely remember saying that last year too). Looks fantastic.

you forgot to mention the film "S. Darko", a rip off of the brilliant film Donnie Darko from (2001)
i hate the way sequels ruin films

Its shaping up to be a sh1te movie year IMO.For me a new Toetag production and Yardsale are the only things that have me even close to being excited.Those and Andrey Iskanovs The Tourist.Apart from that,MEH.

+1 to Public Enemies, havent seen a Michael Mann film I didnt like yet and cant wait for this one.

I am sort of sick of Christian Bale at this stage but seeing Johnny Depp in a non-pirate non-Burton film will be great.

At this point of 2008 we can only post our "looking forward to" lists which relate to blockbusters. But anyway on my list:

Benjamin Button - getting great reviews
Transformers 2: Im such a kid
Star Trek - just so i can moan about the new kirk and question why a starship is being manned by a crew of rookies.
Watchmen - this needs no explanation! (Damn you Fox!)
The Great Buck Howard - Malkovich, looks good
The Unborn - second half of trailer looks animal!
My Name Is Bruce - Bruce Campbell!

Fillms im more curious to see but am scared at the same time:
S. Darko - i dont even know if it has a bunny!
Terminator Salvation - McG, enuff said
Avatar - probably a pile of much that looks fancy
Knowing - Nic Cage is a "jim carey/bruce willis did it before" role
Friday 13th - ahem nothing to see here...
Plague Town - watch the trailer, yes that was a Bus Eireann bus stop in the background...

Im not looking forward to:
Wolverine - i dont see the point of having 2 and a half good x-men films and then throwing that all out the window to do a wolverine story that has nothing to do with the x-men movies.
