The world may end in 2012 so an important film year. Before looking at my list you should understand that this is my personal pleasure list to watch movies on moviescounter and this may change as more information or trailers come out of these or other films.
Anyway, here are my 10 to see next year.
1. The Black Warrior is on the rise
It is the best superhero film ever. One of the best songs of all time, one of the most lucrative movies, one of the best movies of all time. It’s hard to argue with any of those statements, so the sequel has a lot to live for, but it’s in the hands of a director in moviecounter who doesn’t have a problem delivering goods when expectations are high. I can’t wait and I’m sure most will agree.
2. The Hobbit
There have been a few great and better movies than Lord of the Rings in the past … well and now we will be getting more. The same director and many similar actors would make me think that this would be just fine. The only downside to this movie is that the release date will probably be postponed. And I really hope 3D doesn’t suck.
3. Avengers
It’s a group of amazing superheroes all in the same film. The level of the structure may not live up to the hype but I have no doubt that the action will not. People have been waiting for a movie like this for years and the wait is almost over. Trailers so far have just made the hoopla pass and Robert Downey Jr. looks on top of his game.
4. Osama Bin Laden Film
Little is known about the film, there is no title yet. But a film about the murder of Bin Laden by a woman who made the best war film of the past (The Hurt Locker) should make many people curious. Not only do I expect this movie to be great, I also expect it to be great.
5. Hunger Games
Mr. Potter will no longer be with us and the Twilight series will end next year so we need another series that will take us to the next few years. The first book was amazing and the trailer kept it fun. There are many things that can go wrong with a movie but I will continue to be hopeful.
6. A dictator
This is all you need to know about this film; the boy who played for Barat will play Saddam Hussein. I can bet this is going to create chaos as it is a joke and I personally can’t wait. Long ago Charlie Chaplin played Hitler and finally, someone came down that street again.
7. Django Unchained
I feel like Tarantino is like Bo. Tarantino knew Samurai (Kill Bill), Tarantino knew WWII (Inglorious Bastards) and now Tarantino knows the West. The best part? He can make every kind of original and beautiful. And there are progressive actors who make everyone spit. I’m always waiting for Tarantino to make a bad movie but I don’t think that will happen anytime soon.
8. Red Tails
I sing a ducktail song in my head when I see the title but other than that everything looks good in this movie on moviescounter com. It looks like the first film of a good fighter pilot as Top Gun and George Lucas are behind this (rarely considering a few decades ago you only faced Indiana Jones and Star Wars). Add a true story element to the compilation and I don’t see how bad this can be.
9. United States of America
Maybe it won’t be good but I should be happy with this movie. Maybe it’s because I was in High School when the first one came out and this just brought me back to that easy time of letting go of the tube socks or beer in my waiting area at night.
10. Black Woman
I know I have never looked like a shutter about this film but when I consider the story and film made for the TVs made in the 80s, this could be a horror and horror movie over the years. Or it will suck and I will look stupid by spending so much time writing about it.
