10 Most Anticipated Films of 2009
This is my Top 10, in the order of least anticipated to most anticipated.
10. Fanboys – Release Date – February 5 – The only reason this one is coming in at the ten spot is that the movie comes out tomorrow. Otherwise it would definitely be further down the list. Trailer

9. G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra – Release Date – August 8 – The teaser shown during the Super Bowl got me excited. After seeing Transformers last year, I’m hoping that another part of my childhood can turn into a good movie. Trailer

8. Crank 2 – Release Date – April 17 – The first Crank was highly underrated. This one will be full of more of the over the top action from the first, with an even more ridiculous plot, but that’s ok because it won’t take itself too seriously. Trailer

7. Sherlock Holmes – Release Date – November 11 – I will probably watch anything starring Robert Downey Jr. at this point. Sorry, no trailer yet.

6. Public Enemies – Release Date – July 1 – Gangster film with Johnny Depp and Christian Bale shooting each other? Sold. Sorry, no trailer yet.

5. BrĂ¼no – Release Date – July 10 – Sasha Cohen’s follow up to Borat. Should be equal parts inappropriate and hilarious. Sorry, no trailer yet.

4. Terminator Salvation – Release Date – May 2 – Directed by McG, starring a very angry Christian Bale. I have high hopes that I can wipe the memories of Terminator 3 from my mind. Trailer

3. Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen – Release Date – July 26 – Anything with Megan Fox and giant robots is going to be good. Trailer

2. Inglorious Basterds – Release Date – August 21 – Quentin Tarantino is finally returning to the silver screen. Set in WWII and starring Brad Pitt, this one almost made it to number one, but not quite. Sorry, no trailer yet.

1. Watchmen – Release Date – March 6 – Dues to lawsuits this one almost got shelved indefinitely. If you have no idea what this is about, go check out the graphic novel which is so highly regarded almost everyone agrees it is the one of, if not the greatest of all time. Trailer

Honorable Mentions include James Cameron’s Avatar, which may or may not make it to screens in 2009 and Angels and Demons starring Tom Hanks.

I am a little surprised you didn’t have any animated movies on here. There are at least three that I think will be impressive this year including Coraline, Up, and 9. All of which have trailers:

Up http://www.apple.com/trailers/disney/up/
Coraline http://www.apple.com/trailers/focus_features/coraline/
WATCHMEN!!!
i swear to god if Marlon Wayans ruins G.I. Joe……
I considered some of the animated films. I enjoy those, but I don’t really look forward to them very much anymore. Thus, they didn’t make the list.
geez… how could you have forgotten Trailer Park Boys: Countdown to Liquor Day due out October 9th!?!
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1337032/
I’m not sure how I missed that one…
