What Are Your Most Anticipated Movies of 2009?

I made a similar thread in 2007 where users could discuss movies that were to be released in 2008. This time i've added a poll with, according to IMDb, the most anticipated movies of 2009 where you can vote for the movie that YOU look forward to the most. Feel free to discuss other movies that arent in the poll aswell. {thumb2}

Definitely Friday the 13th! I LOVE those movies
Angels & Demons looks really good too, I love Tom Hanks films!

I can't wait to see what Friday the 13th would be like. It's definitely not going to live up to the original, but it should be ok, at least. The new Transformers should be interesting as well...

Yeah, those are good ones. The hype around Angels and Demons is insane, isnt it? Seems like its talked about everywhere. That one and Avatar
The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus will probably be amazing aswell. Just look at the cast..

Edit: I added Harry Potter, Sherlock Holmes & Fast & The Furious to the poll. I also deleted Halo since its probably going to be canceled.

Here's a few other movies to look forward to that i couldnt have in the poll (max 10):

Crank 2: High Voltage starring Jason Statham & Amy Smart
The Pink Panther 2 starring Steve Martin & John Cleese
Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li starring Kristin Kreuk, Neal McDonough, Chris Klein & Michael Clarke Duncan
Night at the Museum 2: Battle of the Smithsonian starring Ben Stiller, Robin Williams, Owen Wilson

Hi! ;)

To be honest, I'm not super excited about any of these films in '09. At least not as I was about "Narnia: Prince Caspian" and "Quantum of Solace" this year. {thumb2} But I voted for "Harry Potter" anyways. I personally don't think "Angels & Demons" will be nearly as good (or big/popular) as "The Da Vinci Code". :neutral: The "Angels & Demons" book was a horrible, confusing mess in my opinion! On the contrary, "The Da Vinci Code" is one of my favourite books and movie!

Also looking forward to "The Pink Panther 2".

Thanks!

Not looking forward to any of these, except Harry Potter and Sherlock Holmes (just for Jude Law).

None of those films appeal to me, but I would probably watch Harry Potter because I've watched the others.

not one of them, looks like 2009 is going to be another dull year of rubbish remakes, sequels and shoddy adaptations...

Normally i would agree, but i really think that Robert Downey Jr. can pull it off. He's such an amazing actor (imo). He just need to work on his british accent..
