I figured we should have a discussion thread for movies new movies. What are you guys looking forward to seeing this year? I'm dying to see The Dark Knight Rises, Prometheus, and Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter.

Biggest for me is Prometheus and The Muppets (not out here yet). The Dark Knight Rises I'm sure will wow audiences and I will see it, but I'm not too excited about it.

Pretty excited for these too. I have a bad feeling the Avengers won't be as awesome as it should be and it's gonna wind up being only "pretty good". Brave should be awesome since it's a Pixar movie that isn't called Cars.

I am extremely uncomfortable with Tarantino tackling slavery, but I'm at least intrigued.

Well, Jews on a revenge mission for the Holocaust killing Hitler wasn't exactly delicate but Basterds ruled hard. So long as he doesn't make the slave master an empowered, sympathetic character, I don't see how this fails.

I was considering seeing The Devil Inside because I want to go to the movies more this year but I'm seeing a shit load of terrible reviews for it. Most of the negative reaction seems to be coming from the ending (a reviewer on /r/horror claimed the ending was so bad everyone in the theater stood up and booed). Even a girl from my school who I would expect to like shitty horror movies made a facebook status about how the movie was shitty and the ending sucked.

My family wants to see it but it just doesn't look good and I'm a die hard horror fan and I love horrible horrible movies but it looks like one of those movies that will be 10% interesting stuff and the 90% useless talking.
