2015: The year ahead in cinema

Found this article on Yahoo, thought it might make a good discussion topic:

I had no idea that there was a Jem and the Holograms movie in the works but, well, there it is. Frankly, I think Juliette Lewis and Molly Ringworm are a trifle too old to be playing any of the original characters, whom I'm pretty sure were in their 20's, but I definitely plan to see this one. I loved the old cartoon series, and besides, I had a crush on Kimber; she was a sweetheart. With red hair. Red hair always gets me.

Anyway... out of the 40 movies listed, the one I most want to see, by far, is Jurassic World, which looks like it'll be one hell of a thrill ride, if the trailer is any indication (you can find it on YouTube). Avengers: Age of Ultron is also high on my list, and Ant-Man looks intriguing as well. The rest are a mixed bag; some look interesting to one degree or another, some don't. That's my view, at least. How about the rest of you?

Is that a typo or are you not a fan of hers? I think it's pretty cool that such a notorious '80s actress will be playing such a role in a remake of a notorious '80s cartoon, personally. Wouldn't mind seeing it myself.

And I'm probably being cliche, but I look forward to Pan because I've always been a huge fan of that fairy tale, ever since I was a wee thing. Whether or not I like the story before the story, I always love seeing it come to life, whether it be animated or live action.

And also Cinderella, because I love seeing a cartoon come to life in a live action movie and I want to see how they do it. I also really want to see the Frozen short that's suppose to be preceding it.

And though I half expect it to be stupid, as a Star Wars fan, also The Force Awakens because I still have some desire to be faithful to that franchise.

The latter.

The Force Awakens might be good but I've never been a huge Star Wars fan. I've enjoyed the movies but never got into the series like I did with the Star Trek franchise. I'll probably wait for the DVD.

From that list, Jurassic World and possibly Everest, as I finished the book last year. Definitely excited about Jurassic World.

Trailer for Ant-Man:

I'm moving this one up a couple of notches on my list. Looks like Marvel has another winner.

No Kingsman: The Secret Service? Mind you, that's coming out next month, and I've already booked an advance screening ticket for it. Here's the trailer for anyone interested:
