What movies do you want to see or have seen in 2009?

A Off-Topic forum to discuss things that aren't related to the Amusement Park Industry.
Postby Ilovthevu' on April 15th, 2009, 12:45 pm
I have seen Wonder Woman (Animated movie), and it was really good even though it's kind of short. I saw Yes Man, and it wasn't good except that woman was hot. I haven't seen Adventureland and don't want to see it because it seems like a chick flick with rides.

I want to see:

Fanboys - It has been out, but it wasn't in that many shows. I'll probably wait to dvd.
Wolverine - I'm not that excited about this movie, but I still want to see it. I think Wolverine is a cool character, but he gets a lot of attention.
Night at the Museum 2- I don't think this movie will be as good as the first. The guy already talked to the characters, and talking to them again, is kind of repetitive even though their are more characters like Lincoln, Amelia Earhart.
Green Lantern: First Flight - It's a cartoon movie, and it looks good even though I've never been into Green Lantern. Maybe, it's just because there isn't much about this character in the movies, or television (Never his own series I think, or not that I've seen.)

Tansformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen

That's all that's on my list, I'm not a big theater guy.

^ Yikes, some Kiddie movies.

I'm not surprised to see a Pixar Film on your list. They never cease to impress me! but I don't think I'll see UP

So I like going to see Kids movies, there is really nothing wrong with that and they're not all kids movies. Knowing isn't a kids movie and neither is Angels or Demons and neither is Amelia and Earth could be considered a kids movie with the animals but it's mostly a documentary. You can make fun of the movies I want to see all you want, honestly I don't really care. If you don't like Kiddie movies then don't go making fun of people that do and keep it to yourself.

I read the book for the lovely Bones!

That's a great book, hope it makes a good movie.

Stuff I recommend...

Knowing - I know this wasn't a big hit with most people. But I liked how they took the whole apocalyptic approach, and almost made it a mystery as the movie went on. Despite my lack of religious beliefs, the underlying religious theme was great.

Taken - By god what an amazing movie. The beginning is a little slow, and drama-ey. But once that movie starts, it does not let up at all. Too bad Fox spent months cutting this thing down for the PG-13 rating, would have loved to see the original idea.

The Reader - Granted I don't know what the theater release for this was, but I just watched it last week on DVD, and it was an excellent movie. Granted the first half hour was pretty much a porno, but the rest of the movie did not disappoint.

The Last House on the Left - An EXCELLENT thriller. Took pieces of Eden Lake, Taken, and The Strangers and slammed them into an excellent movie. Very well drawn out and very suspenseful.

Stuff I don't recommend...


Bride Wars - If you've seen the trailer, you've seen every humorous part of the movie. The rest of the movie is just a pathetic excuse of a plot to take up space between the funny parts. Not worth it at all.

Watchmen - ...what?! I forgot what connecting to the characters is. Glad I downloaded this.

Friday the 13th - Awful. Awful. Awful. I could only assume the Hannah Montana movie was more entertaining.

Observe and Report - Quite possibly the DRIEST comedy I've ever seen in my ENTIRE life. Despite almost a good attempt at a set up for a story, it's like if you spent hours building stone sculpture, and a wrecking ball pulverized it the second you finished it.

Next week is gonna be a pretty solid line-up with The Soloist, Obsessed, and Fighting.

Up is a going to be (no pun intended) a toss-up.
Granted I like the general story, but it seems kinda iffy. It looks like one of their shorts spread over an hour long time-span. But I hope they can integrate the 3D effects without killing the movie.

X-Men Origins: Wolverine...
Well. The movie was supposedly "leaked" a week or so ago. Apparently Fox leaked it to get some feedback (but wont admit it, they just gave the entire world permission to download it, and give them feedback), as they are anticipating their own movie being a huge flop. From the looks of it, that's exactly what its going to be. I don't recommend giving this a try in a few weeks.

I'm waiting for something to REALLY stand out for me this year, as much as Seven Pounds did last year.
