You know how there are those months when there is absolutely no good movie to watch? (Thank God for Art Cinema) and you succumb to watching totally mundane or really stupid movies (ie, slapstick no-brainers)
Well, now it seems as if they brought in a tidal wave of AMZINGIWANNAFUCKINGWATCHTHAT movies that I can't wait to see! DAMNNNN! I guess them cinemas are going to be extorting much money from me these coming weeks. These, I really REALLY can't wait for:
INDIANA JONES
Growing up a daddy's girl (or boy, actually, since the lack of male offspring made my dad share his manliness to me instead) I LOVED the Indiana Jones movies. There's something about those rough-and-tough action films that get you hooked on the screen the entire time. I'm not a big Harrison Ford fan, but the way he made Indie's character clever, tough and hilarious in a dry-wit kind of way just make him so appealing to watch. It just makes you want to get lost in some unknown jungle with him, in search for some lost chalice/crystal/temple. The new one doesn't seem to give any less action or excitement, espousing with the classic Ford action modern techniques on film -which I'm sure would make it more than worth your money. I guess we can only hope that the story line remains just as good.
Plus, it's the Lucas-Spielberg dynamic duo. ANYONE would pay BIG money for that alone.
IRON MAN
I'm a comic book junkie, so I can't wait to see Tony Stark, and his Stark Enterprise created alter ego. Although I'm more Pro-Captain America, who doesn't love the Marvel's (little less yummy) version of the Batman? AND RDjr is playing him, so that should make for an interesting watch.
FORBIDDEN KINGDOM
Two names: Jackie Chan. Jet Li. Need I say more? It looks FUCKING amazing. All that martial arts action! TANGINA you just gotta cuss watching it (tangina, trailer pa lang) I don't even care if there's no point in the story, I'm just going to watch it for the kick-butt.
SPEED RACER
Looks a little mundane, and Christina Ricci makes me shudder in my seat, but I want to watch it for memory-lane's sake. I used to love Speed Racer, and the movie looks half-decent, with it's cartoon-come-to-life cinematography. Plus, Emile Hirsch has always been a-drool-able, ever since dangerous lives of altar boys.
THE DARK KNIGHT
It looks PERFECT. Cinematography's PERFECT. Directing's PERFECT. Acting's PERFECT. Story's PERFECT. I think of all the movies to wait for, this is the one that can't seem to come any earlier. I mean, even if I'm more of a Marvel girl, who doesn't fucking love Batsy? Plus, added bonus on the Heath Ledger (rest his soul) version of the Joker, which makes Jack's version look like a joke -no pun intended. Another cheer is that my boyfriend, Christian Bale, is back in the Batsuit. The screen just can't get any hotter. I would pay millions (if I had them to spare) for this movie to be shown at an earlier date. But I guess I need to settle for waiting like every other Batfanatic.
Still looking forward to in the near future:
The Hobbit
Wolverine (aaaahhhhh!)
Confessions of a Shopaholic (I still think Kate Hudson would have been cuter for the part)
