The main movie I am looking forward to will not be out until the very end of 2008. Star Trek. It is about time someone found a way to reinvigorate the franchise and what a way to do it. By going back, in a sense, to the beginning and give us something truly unique. I just hope it is a good story. Nimoy being involved makes me hopeful, though time will tell.
Seems to be a pretty good year for movies if I do say so myself. Some of my anticipations include:
Cloverfield-Must say the guerrilla marketing did really get to me. Looks pretty good, at least from a conceptual point.
Iron Man-I've read quite a bit about this movie, and I hope its gonna be good, and while I never read the original comics, the casting seems pretty good, as well as the plot.
Indiana Jones-I mean I freaking grew up on this trilogy, I'm gonna go see it and pray they don't collectively rape my childhood.
Incredible Hulk-I got excited when I heard this was Edward Norton's little pet movie and that he wants to re-do it more seriously and better than the other adaptation, seems good to me.
Harry Potter-I will probably just end up going to see this with friends or something, not so much an anticipation but an inevitable.
Get Smart-Show I grew up watching re-runs on TV Land of + Steve Carrell + "Lower The Cone of Silence!" =awesome
A-team- (See above, except Replace with Mr T, and "I love it when a plan comes together."
Dark Knight- I mean come on, seems amazing with the most insane Joker ever... Brilliance.
Enders Game-Book was great and I've been interested in this movie since its been announced in 2004
Watchman-I just read this comic book, and it was freaking amazing and I really hope they do a good adaptation, but i think they will
Sin City's-First one = awesome, so hopefully the trend continues...
I didn't even realised next summer we are getting another Batman film or I would certainly have listed that too. I did not see BB in theaters but my father bless him got the DVD for me months afterwards for my birthday that year. An excellent quality film and I hope the new movie does as well.
Sin City 2 I was hopping would already be out but it seems they are not anywhere near it.
My most hyped movies of 2008 are.
The Dark Knight- The sequel to my favorite comic book movie of all time comes out this year....Ledger is gonna pull a Danial Craig with his Joker performance....and I have faith Nolan is going to deliver an amazing Batman movie again.
Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street- It come out pretty soon out here in the UK...I am a huge Tim Burton fan....Johnny Depp is looking great as Sweeney and its a musical.
Iron Man- RD Jr is looking great as Tony Stark....the Iron Man suit is looking fab and Samuel L Jackson is playing Nick Fury whats not to look forward to.
Indiana Jones 4- A long return from Lucas/Spielberg team....Last year Bruce Willis proved he still had it in him for another Die Hard and this year I think Harrison Ford is going to do the same with this movie.
Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince- I thought Harry Potter 5 was very good and I look forward to this one as its one of my most favourite books in the series.

Yes he only has a cameo role though and you should check out Harry Potter 4 and 5, 4 is not to good imo I have always liked 3 the best and 5 was pretty decent.
