Yes, we're not even done with the current cinematic calendar, but if next year's election is worthy of early speculation, so too should next year's movies. Mostly this post is being done because I'm a geek who only has eight upcoming films in his My Movies IMDB count and wants to make it an even ten (I'm borderline OCD too). Anyway, here's what I'm looking towards, what say you?

Be Kind Rewind
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0799934/

Burn After Reading
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0887883/

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0421715/

Dumped
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0800039/

Leatherheads
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0379865/

Pineapple Express
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0910936/

Revolutionary Road
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0959337/

Synecdoche, New York
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0383028/

List 'em and link 'em.

I'm also anticipating all the ones you listed.

I'll give any Apatow produced or written stuff a go.

So far, I got:

Paranoid Park
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0842929/
Read a few enthusiastic reviews. Not a Van Sant fan all the way, but he's an interesting filmmaker. Pretty good career, ya know, indie, some mainstream projects, stylistic experimentation (credits Bela Tarr). Plus, Doyle co-DP'd.

Shine A Light
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0893382/

4 Months, 3 Weeks, 2 Days
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1032846/
Cannes prize winner. In lots of '07 Top Ten lists. Look out for Romanian films.

My Blueberry Nights
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0765120/
I'm anticipating and fearing this one. Khondji is the DP so the images will be great. I dig the Cat Power track. Really just going in to be moved by images and sounds. I have a feeling Wong just rehashed stuff as a WKW-for-a-new-American-audience as a substitute for people going through his prior films. The dialogue might be painful.

Flight of the Red Balloon
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0826711/
'Cause I'm a fan of Hou and Mark Lee Ping-bing. Mixed reviews, I think.

The Dark Knight
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0468569/

Snow Angels
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0453548/

Woman on the Beach
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0835787/
Scorsese likes Hong's movies (not sure if all). I, so far, sort of admire him dispassionately for the most part. Said to be a light, funny Hong movie so that interests me a lot. Only a NY '08 date so far.

Funny Games
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0808279/
Maybe. Sure as hell is gonna be a difficult, extremely unpleasant watch. Naomi Watts.

Tree Of Life
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0478304/
I'm not high on Malick as others, but I'll watch anything he puts out. Plus, the prehistoric story sounds really interesting. I doubt it's coming out in '08.

White Material
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1135952/
Denis and Huppert. Count me in. So far the only release date is France '08

35 rhums
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1100048/
Denis and Agnes Godard. Count me in. So far the only release date is France '08.

The Band's Visit
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1032856/
In one or two '07 Top Ten lists, I think.

CJ7
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0940709/
Just 'cause it's Stephen Chow. The trailer I saw sucks.

Hellboy 2: The Golden Army
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0411477/
'Cause of del Toro.

Rambo 4
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0462499/
Maybe.


These have no indication of any U.S. '08 dates, but there's usually a lag for such festival films.

Syndromes and a Century
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0477731/
Not really a fan of Weerasethakul, but I will watch anything of his. This really sounds like my kind of thing. In quite a few '07 Top Tens.

Useless
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1094286/
This guy has a few masterpieces or near-ones under his belt. Sounds good.

Caotica Ana
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0456340/
Sounds like another intricate narrative from Medem.

Silent Light
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0841925/
Not a Reygadas fan (seemed to just be an agitator), but this one interests me a lot. Plus, it's said to be visually stunning.

Secret Sunshine
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0817225/
Some enthusiastic reviews. Sounds good to me.

You, the Living
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0445336/
Andersson has his supporters. I'll give it a go if it ever comes to the U.S.

The Banishment
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0488905/
I liked The Return so I'll give this one a go.

>I'll give any Apatow produced or written stuff a go.

I'm just hoping any backlash doesn't come before Jason Segel has his moment.

Movies Gus Van Sant made that don't star young males, go . . .

I get that he's gay, but even Scorsese eventually did stuff that didn't solely rest upon Italians.

Yeah, I've turned into a regular HE-reader, so this one's been on my radar for a while. If I had to make a blind wager, I would say this wins the Oscar for Foreign Film (while my slow ass still needs to see last year's The Lives of Others).

Didn't we get the trailer for this back during in the summer? I know the early response wasn't great, but I thought it would have definitely come out by now. On one hand, you have Rachel Weisz and Norah Jones, both of whom I'd happily watch do the crossword puzzle. On the other hand, the aforementioned Mr. Doyle is absent, right? How does WKW's pre-CD work, picture-wise at least, compare to everything else (I've never gone back further in his catalog than Chung King Express).

>The Dark Knight
>http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0468569/

With everyone else getting so excited, I feel like a bad person for not having much interest at all. Christian Bale seems more and more like a caricature with every role he takes on (dark and sullen, dark and sullen, sullen and dark), and Nolan seems happy accommodating with moody pieces and dreary art to lasso in any and all fanboys still miffed that Tim Burton was once playful with their precious little cartoon stories. . . . Wow, that's some hate, and admittedly I have yet to see Begins (though for precisely those same reasons), but if it weren't for the "damn that's pretty awesome" makeup shot with Heath Ledger as The Joker, this wouldn't even hold the promise of promise to me.

>Snow Angels
>http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0453548/

An '07 Sundance release with a star like Kate Beckinsale getting an '08 release doesn't bode well, does it? I thought George Washington was fantastic, but I haven't been driven to watch it since the first time through; subsequently, I've slept on everything DGG has done since then. Is All the Real Girls a good spot to get caught back up?

>Funny Games
>http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0808279/
>Maybe. Sure as hell is gonna be a difficult, extremely
>unpleasant watch. Naomi Watts.

Yeah, that plot outline doesn't exactly scream "light and breezy", but the poster's definitely striking. Doesn't look like the usual movie I'd go for, but I'd said that about another Naomi Watts piece of work before, The Ring, and ended up enjoying myself (though I figure this trip to the cinema would be a bit more on the grizzly-side). The director Haneke got a couple nods in your "2000's post", right? Is the Funny Games original where to start?

I'm adding it for Naomi.

>Hellboy 2: The Golden Army
>http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0411477/
>'Cause of del Toro.

The Devil's Backbone was cool enough, but maybe that's because I just like that type of movie: the part-supernatural-but-still-grounded-in-realism, European village adolescence type (I'm Not Scared and The Spirit of the Beehive, for instance). Conversely, the first Hellboy, which I saw unwittingly, and even Pan's Labyrinth did nothing for me. I appreciate that Del Toro has a strong imaginative sense, both in terms of story and in visual quality, but overboard fantasy, comic book, horror movies never really moved me.

Damn, man, every time that I think I have a slight grasp on what's going on with movies, you make me feel like I've missed whole entire semesters.

Atonement goes in the Best Pic category not the Best Foreign Film one 'cause it's in English? No Atonement, then 4 Months... does look like the frontrunner.

There's this great Romanian flick from '05 "The Death of Mister Lazarescu" that's a critical darling. I love it. Small masterpiece. Starts out kinda rough w/ Bourne Ultimatum-type shakiness, but that lasted only a minute or 2. Near perfect. It has the one of the worst trailers (marketing-wise) ever. I've done missionary work here in PTP for it; nah, more like, had a booth at a trade/craft convention and everyone, but a few, walked by w/o stopping.

>>My Blueberry Nights
>On the other hand, the aforementioned Mr.
>Doyle is absent, right?

Khondji is no slouch, though. I would guess he has influenced contemporary cinematography; just a guess.

>How does WKW's pre-CD work,
>picture-wise at least, compare to everything else (I've never
>gone back further in his catalog than Chung King Express).

The non-Doyle works (1st story/half of Chungking; 2/3 of the production time of ITMFL; parts of 2046; the BMW film) is great, too. As for pre-Chungking, Kino DVDs transfers aren't Criterion level. With that said, Days of Being Wild is pretty good, but lacks the correct color according to Doyle. As Tears Go By looks like your typical poor-transfer of an 80s Triad flick, the step-printing (strobe, blurry, slow-mo) was there before Doyle, though.

>>The Dark Knight
>Christian Bale
>seems more and more like a caricature with every role he takes
>on (dark and sullen, dark and sullen, sullen and dark),

See him in Rescue Dawn.

I'm not a comic book fan at all. Batman Begins was great entertainment, not perfect, but great. I was surprised.

>>Snow Angels
>An '07 Sundance release with a star like Kate Beckinsale
>getting an '08 release doesn't bode well, does it?

Delayed releases even w/ star power doesn't necessarily speak of the quality of the flick. It could turn out to be a clunker, but just saying.

ATRG and Undertow aren't as good as GW, IMHO. Hmmm, if you're emotionally raw, indecisive, or fresh off a bad relationship for whatever reaons, ATRG could resonate. Some worthwhile moments. It doesn't hide the fact that it's a work that looks to connect emotionally so, if you're not on that wavelength, Undertow is a pretty solid genre flick. Don't let the opening credits fool you. Leisurely exposition like the old days, but when it gets going, it's solid.

>>Funny Games

Have you seen the red-band trailer?:
http://twitchfilm.net/site/view/funny-games-remake-pushed-to-march-the-consolation-red-band-trailer/

I don't know if I'll catch it, though, to be honest.

> The director Haneke got a couple nods in your "2000's post", >right?

For Cache mostly w/ just 1 mention of Code Unknown, I think.

>Is the Funny Games original where to start?

Hard to say. I've read conflicting reports - he's making changes; he's not. I think the gist and tone will remain the same, though, no matter what route he took.

>>Hellboy 2: The Golden Army
>Conversely, the first Hellboy, which
>I saw unwittingly,

Saw it over at my cousin's place. Again, I'm not a comic guy at all, but shit was pretty good.

>and even Pan's Labyrinth did nothing for me.

Couldn't help, but think of the matchless Spirit of the Beehive?

>I appreciate that Del Toro has a strong imaginative
>sense, both in terms of story and in visual quality, but

Yea, I'm w/ you, that stuff isn't my thing, but I think it's pretty boring if I just seek out my kind of stuff, ya know. For the most part, I'm on a "what's the director gonna do next" vibe. Not really sure if I'll catch this, either.

>Damn, man, every time that I think I have a slight grasp on
>what's going on with movies, you make me feel like I've missed
>whole entire semesters.

If you read all those sites that do festival reports regularly, then you should be up to date, no sweat, 'cause the same titles pop up w/ regularity.

It's just a trailer, but going off of it, the movie doesn't seem interesting to me. I thought it was Reservation Road. We'll see, though.

http://wallpapershi.net/wallpapers/2012/01/boba-fett-star-wars-star-wars-boba-fett-movie-anime-1080x1920.jpg

It's gonna suck so bad. They cast the douchebag son from War of the Worlds as Goku and Spike from Buffy the Vampire Slayer is Piccolo. WTF...

i know they're aliens but i'm sure they could pass for asian (Krillin especially)

is it Dragonball or Dragonball Z that they're making a movie of?

Cloverfield
Batman: Dark Knight
Iron Man
Punisher: War Zone
Diary of the Dead
Incredible Hulk
Hancock (Tonight He Comes)
Speed Racer
Harold and Kumar 2
Chronicles of Narnia : Prince Caspian
Wall E
Wanted

On The Lookout 4:
some new music. WTF is going on this year?

Right? Haven't tuned in to the show in quite a while.

I know, I know. I use curse words like commas. Fucking deal with it.

JANUARY:

Cloverfield: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1060277/

I can't not be intrigued by this premise.

Meet the Spartans: http://www.comingsoon.net/films.php?id=38458

A spoof of 300 in the style of Epic Movie starring Diedrich Bader and Kevin Sorbo. I will see this because I hate myself, and want to write a review of just how bad it is.

Rambo: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0462499/

Because it'll either be really bad and worth reviewing for the above reasons, or some good violent fun.

FEBRUARY:

Jumper: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0489099/

Likely to be a shitty action flick with a terrible lead actor. But Sammy J's the bad guy, Doug Liman's the director, and the special effects look good. I'll prolly go for cheap on a study break and hope to have a good time.

Vantage Point: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0443274/

Nothing new, but I love the cast. Could be a surprisingly good late-winter thriller.

MARCH:

Inkheart: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0494238/

A fantasy flick with a terrific cast, a great writer in charge of the script, and Andy Serkis (GEEK ALERT) as the villain.

Run Fatboy Run: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0425413/

A Michael Ian Black/Simon Pegg penned script is something that will certainly interest most of PTP. Looks funny.

Stop-Loss: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0489281/

A talented young cast, and it's the new flick by Kimberley Peirce, her first flick since Boys Don't Cry. It'll either be really great or really preachy. Here's hoping for the first.

>Jumper: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0489099/

Doug Liman has yet to make a bad movie (at least from Swingers on), though, save for its action scenes, Mr. & Mrs. Smith seemed like a bit of a regression. And the fact that there are three credited screenwriters here, one being the aforementioned Pitt-Jolie scribe, would make me a little nervous. As bad as Hayden Christensen may be, I think Diane Lane however has the power to cancel him out.

>Vantage Point: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0443274/
>
>Nothing new, but I love the cast. Could be a surprisingly good

Cool poster. Cool Name. Horrible trailer. Potentially hilariously intense performance from Dennis Quaid. I don't know if it's because I saw this next to a National Treasure 2 spot before (a movie that looks so preposterous it infects even films it's marketed by), but VP appears too unbelievable, too convoluted, and perhaps too in love with the novelty of its premise to really pan out.

At the same time, like you said, you have Forest Whitaker, Sigourney Weaver, and William Hurt. That's some Academy-level clout.

>Run Fatboy Run: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0425413/
>
>A Michael Ian Black/Simon Pegg penned script is something that
>will certainly interest most of PTP. Looks funny.

I'm late to the Simon Pegg fanclub, but I'm here strong. Even though the David Schwimmer / how-well-really-is-Michael-Ian-Black's-schtick-gonna-translate-into-a-movie factor makes me a bit uneasy, Pegg is responsible for one half of Shaun of the Dead and that's gonna earn him my attention for a long while. So, yeah, I'll follow this one.

Dude is on a certifiable roll now.

The 4th Annual Residency Encampment: Where do we go from here?

All you see is crime in the source code.

MARCH:

Drillbit Taylor: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0817538/

This looks like some family friendly fare with that same Apatow intelligence. Plus, it's directed by Steven Brill, who collabed with Apatow on Heavyweights, one of my favorite live-action kids' films.

APRIL:

Leatherheads (previously mentioned)

The Rocker: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1031969/

A comedy about a failed rock n roll drummer getting a second chance at fame. Why care? It's directed by Peter Cattaneo who did The Full Monty, and it stars Rainn Wilson.

Harold and Kumar Escape From Guantanamo Bay: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0481536/

I didn't like the first. But the trailer made me laugh, and the two leads are funny and charismatic.

The List: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0800240/

I'll wait for the reviews, but it's a thriller starring two of the most earnest actors working today, Ewan MacGregor and Hugh Jackman. That's potentially a very interesting combination.

MAY:

Iron Man: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0371746/

Cuz it's gonna kick fucking ass.

Speed Racer: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0811080/

Because it will either kick fucking ass or really really suck.

Prince Caspian: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0499448/

I actually liked the first Narnia flick a good deal, and after seeing Golden Compass, I'm longing for a decent fantasy epic.

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0367882/

Duh.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall (previously mentioned)

JUNE:

You Don't Mess With The Zohan: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0960144/

I haven't really dug a Sandler flick in a while, but Apatow got co-writing credit on this one. Maybe he had a bit more involvement with this one than the past ones? I'll wait for reviews, but the premise plus Apatow makes me hope for the best.

The Happening: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0949731/

Despite my better judgment, Shyamalan has a great deal of skill as a director, and the cast looks really good. Either it'll be great (like his films that work), or awful (like his films that don't).

The Incredible Hulk: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0800080/

What can I say? I dig most Marvel Comic flicks... and I'm hoping this one will be better than the first (which I didn't dislike until the end).

Get Smart: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0425061/

This cast looks PERFECT, and the trailer made me laugh out loud. I love the original series, so I'm lookin forward to this.

The Love Guru: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0811138/

I loved all three Austin Powers flicks... I've missed Mike Myers' brand of comedy. Lots of good people in this, so hopefully Mike won't strike out on this comeback of sorts.

WALL-E: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0910970/

Pixar. I'm there.

Wanted: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0493464/

Could be some fun escapism... the trailer showed some cool special effects and a Matrixy vibe. Warning to the haters: Common plays a big role in this.

JULY:

Hancock

Hellboy 2

Tropic Thunder

The Dark Knight

Mamma Mia

Step Brothers

AUGUST:

The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor

The Pineapple Express

SEPTEMBER:

Lakeview Terrace

OCTOBER:

RockNRolla

Valkyrie

Soul Men

Untitled Ridley Scott

NOVEMBER:

Bond 22

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (previously mentioned)

DECEMBER:

Revolutionary Road (previously mentioned)

Yes Man

Star Trek

Apatow's name is generating excitement. But that is like Alexander Payne's name generating excitement for Chuck and Larry. So unless Apatow is in the editing room and reshooting the movie there should be no excitement. This is really Sandler and Smigel's shit as far as I could tell.

it's got as many good jokes as a MAD TV skitch. The trailer is up as well and it looks as terrible as it read and looked/sounded on the monitors.

Why was I not informed?

Never mind that it stars Michael Cera and the naked daughter from Broken Flowers, seeing Sollet's name back in the mix of something current was a moment I had expected less and less as 2002 got further and further away. . . . This is officially the number one movie I'm anticipating from the new year.

Rick Reilly wrote Leatherheads? Clooney usually has good instincts so, we'll see...

That new nugget of information plus a shoddy a trailer that makes it seem like Clooney's trying to channel the Coen Brothers (but the Coen Brothers that made Intolerable Cruelty) just knocked Leatherheads down a little.

Plot looks very interesting...

If life is stupendous one cannot also demand that it should be easy. - Robert Musil

Iron Man, Dark Knight...

I'm still iffy on Leatherheads, Clooney's batting .500 for period pieces. Good Night and Good Luck was cool, but the Good German was not good at all.


Shit happens

because he directed Good Night, Good Luck. He didn't direct the Good German, Soderbergh did.

He also directed another period piece 'Confessions of a Dangerous Mind'

i hated Dangerous Mind but thought he made a hell of a picture w/ Good Night, Good Luck. so i guess that's still about 50 percent.

as an actor i think i like clooney as a comedic actor more than a dramatic one (his work in O' Brother may be my favorite performance of his)

-------------------------------

A lot of you players ain't okay.

We would have been better off with an okaycivics board instead of an okayactivist board

it seemed "forced" a little in the Good German.

Shit happens

What chu not like about, really?
I liked his direction. I liked the acting, especially up and commer Sam Rockwell. I liked the twist at the end especially since julia got it. hahahaaaaa yeayeayeaaaaa

anyways..

Not a Diaz fan, but Richard Matheson's pedigree can overcome anything.

And the Dark Knight in IMAX.

Pineapple Express
Forgetting Sarah Marshall
The Foot Fist Way (because I keep hearing from anyone who has seen it that it's one of the funniest movies in ages)
Burn After Reading
The Dark Knight
Adventureland
Step Brothers

Yeah. I saw All The Real Girls the other day, and while the movie as a whole wasn't very memorable (wonderful use of visuals to convey tone, weak storyline, fell apart 2/3 of the way through), Danny McBride's Bust-Ass was consistently funny. He played the goofy, confident loser without having to go broad and gave a great portrayal of that one inevitable friend that's in every group (and not just some relic of a tired Will Ferrell / SNL skit). Scene-stealer that he proved to be, McBride even piqued my interest in one day renting The Heartbreak Kid . . . maybe not. Anyway, at least Hot Rod's now on my Netflix queue.

He looks to have a crowded '08, and aside from his work with Apatow, Tropic Thunder now also has my attention. On top of all that, as you said, a wide theatrical release for The Foot Fist Way would be appreciated.

looks like it could be funny. I'm now anticipating this Iron Man movie all of a sudden. I would love to see a new trailer for it.

I'm a HUGE Get Smart fan and couldn't have been happier with the casting for the movie remake.

My list is not just me but most moviegoers i believe.

Cloverfield - i guarantee that this movie will be good if and only if you never actually see the monster.

The Dark Knight - just going by the trailer it is visually the best Batman movie so far and arguably the best superhero movie adaptation to date. (rivals Spiderman 1)

Wall E - looks like another Pixar classic (those people are geniuses)

Indiana Jones 4 - anyone who was born from 1974 to 1982 or has a brother, sister, aunt, uncle, and even possibly a mother or father born in any of those years will definitely want to see this flick.

The Chronicles of Narnia - book readers and those who admire visually stunning movies will line up for this.

Speed Racer - see Indiana Jones 4's reason but change the years to 1959 to 1971.

City of Men - From the makers of City of God. Nuff said.

10,000 B.C - HUGE potential but miniscule advertisement and marketing could slow it down.

The Incredible Hulk - I just hope people can look past them changing Bruce Banner from Eric Bana to Edward Norton and support what looks like a hell of an improvement from a semi-disappointing Hulk.

The Forbidden Kingdom - Just take two of the best at what they do (Jackie Chan and Jet Li) and make a serious movie. I pray that the teenage boy (Michael Angarano) doesn't say many cheesy lines. If they keep it strictly serious throughout the whole thing then it is HIGHLY anticipated by me.

Harold and Kumar 2 - This is strictly personal for me. I don't burn trees anymore but I was sold on them smoking out with Dubya.

Saw V - This series has absolutely intrigued me from the first tape recording message.

Wanted - Looks superill, straight up.

shit was/is lame...
