Upcoming films do u most want to see, & which do u most want to see do bad
My passion for the upcoming movies usually runs pretty hot and cold. The ones I'm most paying attention to are those I can't wait to go to the theaters and watch, and those I'm dreading the notion of doing well because I either don't like the franchise or that "talent" involved and the projects don't look like they'll excede my own expectations, and I don't want to see more films like them being made. If you want to know my reasoning for an opinion about a particular ask me. Way to keep the thread bumped.

You can see this summers upcoming movies and when they'll come out here
http://www.imdb.com/nowplaying/ by going to the different weeks of movies opening.

Flicks I'm most pumped about and want to see (and when they open):

Art School Confidential(5/05)
X-Men: The Last Stand (5/26)
A Scanner Darkly (7/07)
Little Miss Sunshine (7/28)
Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby (8/04)
Beer League (8/11)
Clerks II (8/18)
Idiocracy (9/01)

Movies I don't want to see and generally hope do relatively badly

Mission: Impossible III (5/05)
Just My Luck (5/12)
The Da Vinci Code (5/19)
Cars (6/09)
Nacho Libre (6/16)
My Super Ex-Girlfriend (7/21)
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest (7/07)
Zoom (8/11)
Snakes on a Plane (8/18)

I'm one of the smattering of people who thought "Cellular" was one of the best movies of 2004, which the director of "Snakes" directed. However it isn't from the same screenwriters, and the premise really isn't that great. People "having" to see the movie based on the "amazing title alone" is as unfounded and exemplary of stupid horde think as "everybody love(ing) Raymond".

Curious or possibly interested in:
The U.S. vs. John Lennon directed by David Leaf and John Scheinfeld - I'm definately interested, but I hadn't heard of this until looking through this list just now and I'm not familiar with the directors.
