- DirectorMichael BayStarsShia LaBeoufRosie Huntington-WhiteleyTyrese GibsonThe Autobots learn of a Cybertronian spacecraft hidden on the moon, and race against the Decepticons to reach it and to learn its secrets.I just hope it's better than Revenge of the Fallen!
- DirectorKenneth BranaghStarsChris HemsworthAnthony HopkinsNatalie PortmanThe powerful but arrogant god Thor is cast out of Asgard to live amongst humans in Midgard (Earth), where he soon becomes one of their finest defenders.I like Norse mythology and Thor is one of my favorite Marvel heroes! Can't wait.
- DirectorJoe JohnstonStarsChris EvansHugo WeavingSamuel L. JacksonSteve Rogers, a rejected military soldier, transforms into Captain America after taking a dose of a "Super-Soldier serum". But being Captain America comes at a price as he attempts to take down a warmonger and a terrorist organization.My all-time favorite super-hero. Chris Evans was the bright spot in the Fantastic Four movies. He's got the looks, the talent and the physique to play Cap.
- DirectorMartin CampbellStarsRyan ReynoldsBlake LivelyPeter SarsgaardReckless test pilot Hal Jordan is granted an alien ring that bestows him with otherworldly powers that inducts him into an intergalactic police force, the Green Lantern Corps.I was surprised by this one. I thought they'd do The Flash before GL. Looking forward to seeing what Ryan Reynolds can do for this character.
- DirectorRob MarshallStarsJohnny DeppPenélope CruzIan McShaneJack Sparrow and Barbossa embark on a quest to find the elusive fountain of youth, only to discover that Blackbeard and his daughter are after it too.Elliot and Rossio once said they had 3 Pirates movies in them and this is number 4. Let's hope that's not a bad thing.
- DirectorMatthew VaughnStarsJames McAvoyMichael FassbenderJennifer LawrenceIn the 1960s, superpowered humans Charles Xavier and Erik Lensherr work together to find others like them, but Erik's vengeful pursuit of an ambitious mutant who ruined his life causes a schism to divide them.I'm not a big fan of prequels; they tend to mess with what we already know from the other movies. But the cast looks good and Bryan Singer is one of the screen writers. Matthew Vaughn was supposed to direct "Last Stand" but didn't. I wonder if it would have been better if he had? We'll see...
- DirectorJon FavreauStarsDaniel CraigHarrison FordOlivia WildeA spaceship arrives in 1873 Arizona to take over the Earth, starting with the Wild West region. All that stands in their way: a posse of cowboys and natives.Daniel Craig and Harrison Ford doing a western sci-fi? It doesn't' get any better than this.
- DirectorDavid YatesStarsDaniel RadcliffeEmma WatsonRupert GrintHarry, Ron, and Hermione search for Voldemort's remaining Horcruxes in their effort to destroy the Dark Lord as the final battle rages on at Hogwarts.The end of an era.
- DirectorJ.J. AbramsStarsElle FanningAJ MichalkaKyle ChandlerDuring the summer of 1979, a group of friends witness a train crash and investigate subsequent unexplained events in their small town.Never a fan of "Lost" but I became an Abrams fan with Star Trek. Looking forward to see what happens here.
- DirectorJustin LinStarsVin DieselPaul WalkerDwayne JohnsonDominic Toretto and his crew of street racers plan a massive heist to buy their freedom while in the sights of a powerful Brazilian drug lord and a dangerous federal agent.Lots of fast cars and we get to watch Vin Diesel and Dwayne Johnson duke it out. Cool!
- DirectorJoe WrightStarsSaoirse RonanCate BlanchettEric BanaA sixteen-year-old girl who was raised by her father to be the perfect assassin is dispatched on a mission across Europe, tracked by a ruthless intelligence agent and her operatives.The trailer has me curious. Why would a man train his daughter to be like this?
- DirectorMarcus NispelStarsJason MomoaRon PerlmanRose McGowanA vengeful barbarian warrior sets off to get his revenge on the evil warlord who attacked his village and murdered his father when he was a boy.The 80's movies weren't very good, but trying to replace Arnold as Conan is almost a sin. For a movie that's coming out this summer, the teaser/trailer isn't giving us much. I'm a bit worried about this one. But I've been a sword & sorcery fan since reading Tolkien as a teenager. So I'll be there.
- DirectorScott StewartStarsPaul BettanyCam GigandetMaggie QA warrior priest disobeys church law to track down a pack of vampires who have kidnapped his niece.Didn't even know about this one until I saw the trailer whilst attending Battle: Los Angeles. A great cast, too.
- DirectorJoss WhedonStarsRobert Downey Jr.Chris EvansScarlett JohanssonEarth's mightiest heroes must come together and learn to fight as a team if they are going to stop the mischievous Loki and his alien army from enslaving humanity.
