Blockbusters I’m Looking Forward To

I’m a sucker for a good movie.  I like all kinds.  Comedy, drama, action, independent film, etc.  But there’s something about the big budget blockbusters that get me excited.  No deep explorations of the human condition.  No social commentary (hopefully).  Just pure escapist junk food for the senses.  I’m a total sucker for the trailers and media hype.  Here’s three I’m looking forward to.  Add more in the comments if I missed any.

Terminator 4

When I first heard about this one I was pretty skeptical.  But then I saw Christian Bale was playing John Connor, and I saw some hope for it.  The trailer looks great.

I like the gritty look to it and Bale will give it a little more realism and character depth. Either way, that “dundun dun dundun” gets me every time!

Star Trek

Another prequel with a grittier re-envisioning.  I think it will be great.  And I think it’s cool that they are using the same “Star Trek” font as the original TV show.

…And what kind of name is “Tiberius”?

Wolverine

He’s got to be one of the best (if not THE best) comic book hero ever created.  Hugh Jackman has really brought him to life too.

Are there any more that I haven’t heard about?
