Films of 2005

Post by dlbpharmd »

What movies are you looking forward to in the new year?

For me, it's gotta be Episode III: Revenge of the Sith.

Not me. I'm very much looking forward to both War of the Worlds films, and Pride and Prejudice.

Here's my list...

Phantom of the Opera
Star Wars: Episode 3
Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe
White Noise
Hitch
Hide and Seek
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
Constantine
Kingdom of Heaven

There's more I'm sure, and I'll probably have to wait until they are all on DVD. Heck, I haven't even seen Troy yet... hehehe :D

Well, I'll try...it's hard for me to do stuff like that because of the kids. And right now, it's not playing near me. I hear tho, that it's going nationwide on the 22nd. Soooooooooo...we'll see :D

What I am hearing is that Batman Begins is shaping up to be great. How can it fail when it has the best Batman villain - the Scarecrow - in it?

Unless Coppolla releases Megalopolis this year, can't say anything interests me. Then again, I might see the Aviator while it's in theaters, as I never pass up a Scorcese.

Narnia for sure.

Star wars... maybe. I still haven't got myself to watch Episode II, though.

I'm kind of stoked about the Fantastic Four movie.

I'll probably watch Episode III. Looking forward to Batman Begins, and will probably see Constantine, though I fully expect it to be a bit rubbish.

I'm looking forward to the non-Cruise WotW, Batman, and Hitchhiker's Guide.
"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”

Considering that Christopher Nolan is directing, I've got high hopes for Batman Begins. Hopefully he can redeem the utter crapfest that Joel Schumacher turned the Batman franchise into. If it comes anywhere near being as good as the first movie was, that will be an accomplishment.

Definitely want to see:

The Aviator
Troy
Alexander
Phantom of the Opera
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
Kinsey
Episode III

I finally got a chance to catch Meet The Fockers on Saturday and it was as funny as I hoped it to be. Definitely a worthy sequel to Meet The Parents. :D

Yes, from what I have seen and read, the non-cruise WoTW will be great.

Final Fantasy 7: Advent Child. It is not in Britain.

Ray, A film about Ray Charles.
I heard of a film about Metallica.
Merchant of Venice.

There should be lots of good films coming.

The best from '05 that I've seen I'd think would be

- Crash
- Munich
- Downfall
- King Kong
- Good Night and Good Luck
- Oldboy
- Sin City
- Enron

While I loved Crash and was glad it got so much attention, I felt that Good Night was the Best Picture.

Crash blew. Most of the movies in 2005 blew. Batman Begins was probably the best.
