2007 Movies

These are movies I'm looking forward to this year.

Ghost Rider (February 16)
Nicholas Cage is Johny Blaze. This was a decent comic, so it has potential. But then again, so did Spawn.

Aqua Teen Hunger Force: The Movie (February 17)
I luv ATHF. Forget the iPhone, I want an eHelmet!!

300 (March 9)
The next moviefication of a Frank Miller (Dark Night, Sin City) story. Looks pretty wild.

Premonition (March 16)
Sandra Bullock in another time travel supernatural movie. I'm game.

Meet the Robinsons (March 30)
Disney's last CG movie before the Pixar acquisition. Rumor was that it was sucking until Pixar gave it a makeover.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (March 23)
I like ninja turtles. There I said it.

Grindhouse (April 6)
Two ka-razy movies by Robert Rodriguez and Quintin Tarantino. Cheesey yet satisfying.

Spider-Man 3 (May 4)
Sam Raimi is on a roll.

28 Weeks Later (May 11)
Zombies are always a good formula for movies. Can't wait 'till LOST Season 8!

Shrek the Third (May 18)
I don't have high expectations, but then again I didn't for Shrek 2 and was pleasantly surprised.

1408 (May 18)
Interesting horror/suspense flick with a decent cast.

Pirates of the Caribbean: At Worlds End (May 26)
See Shrek the Third.

Ocean's Thirteen (June 8)
See Pirates & Shrek.

Surf’s Up (June 8)
I heard Happy Feet was bad, but this one looks pretty cool based on the trailer.

Ratatouille (June 29)
One word: Pixar. One name: Brad Bird.

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (July 13)
So far, so good.

The Simpsons Movie (July 27)
Not sure whether this is going to be worth seeing on the big screen. Don't get me wrong, The Simpsons is awesome. But I like watching it on TV just fine.

Underdog (August 3)
Interesting choice for a superhero movie. Jason Lee (My Name is Earl) kicks it up a notch.

Evan Almighty (June 22)
How do you turn a small co-star role into an entire movie? Steve Carrell gives it a fighting chance.

Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer (June 15)
Trailer teaser looks good. Don't know enough yet to make a judgment.

Live Free or Die Hard (July 4)
Welcome to the party pal!

Transformers (July 4)
You have to like Michael Bay (The Island, The Rock, Armageddon) movies in order to like this. With Speilberg involved it could be pretty good.

The Bourne Ultimatum (August 3)
If it has another car chase like the previous two, it will rock.

The Invasion (August 17)
Remake of Invasion of the Body Snatchers (how many have there been?). Starring Nichole Kidman.

Into the Wild (September 21)
If you haven't read the book, GO READ IT.

Resident Evil: Extinction (September 21)
This will probably be crappy. But the world needs crappy movies too.

Bee Movie (Nov 2)
Jerry Seinfeld's cartoon. Hmm. Maybe he'll be struck by the Seinfeld Curse after all.

I Am Legend (December 14)
End of the world. Vampires. Will Smith.

Alien vs. Predator: AVP2 (December 21)
Why does a movie need an acronym? Especially when it's for the name of the movie itself? AVP was not bad, on par with the other Predator movies. But a far far level below Alien and Aliens.
