Errr.... it's sequels, reboots, remakes... all rehash of stuff we've seen before. How can that be the best movie line up? It's more a demonstration of lack of imagination and vision, and a strong sense of greed in milking the cow...
This line up is only about money. Not about great movies.

Yeah, but don't be a total negative Nancy. At least some of the sequels are to really good stuff like Guardians of the Galaxy, War for the Planet of the Apes, John Wick, Alien, etc.. it's an exciting year. Yeah, I couldn't give less of a shit about Power Rangers or Transformers, etc.. but that's the case with every year.
True.
War of the Planet of the Apes: definitely a wanna-see. So is Guardians (although I dread a movie that's lost the magic of the original).
Alien Convenant... well, to be honest... I dunno. Big Alien fan here, big Ridely Scott fan too... but from what I saw so far is much of the same: people get off spaceship, explore another spaceship, find eggs, eggs hatch, face hugger comes out, people running through hallways, people getting locked out because of infection... and then I guess aliens show up. Oh, and there is a droid.
Hollywood is running out of ideas, people.

15 Original Movies Coming Out in 2017
I'm looking forward to Valerian and A Cure For Wellness the most, but some others sound interesting, like Life and I'm also interested in just about anything del Toro does.

Why do you say I hate everything? Just because I don't swallow everything the studio's feed me.
Some of the original movies look good. I wonder what Abrams will do with Dark Tower... I feel like he's kinda lost his magic a bit since ST:ID.
Valerian, I dunno... looks to me a little like Jupiter Ascending: a CGI fest... and we have to wait and see if there's any substance to it.
A Cure for Wellness looks very interesting... but it also has all the ingredients for a generic horror film. We just have to wait and see.

That whole slate of originals looks great, though I'm really, really not pleased that the one trailer for Life showed exactly who falls victim to the organism first. Who makes these trailers? 😠
Also looks like Besson is finally in form for the first time since Fifth Element. I really might have to skip all the sequels in favor of all the original releases. Well, most of the sequels/reboots anyway.
