2015: The Year Ahead (Film)

What are the top ten films I'm looking forward to this year?

Because last year six of my most anticipated films landed on my end of year top ten, while I didn't even end up watching two of them.

 

MOST ANTICIPATED FILMS 2015

 

1. The Avengers: Age of Ultron - I don't think this one really needs explaining. The Avengers was great and I think that Winter Soldier and Guardians of the Galaxy might be my two favorite Marvel films, so they're in a good spot. Hopefully this matches the hype.

 

2. Spectre - Ever since Skyfall was released back in 2012, I've been looking forward to the eventual sequel; plus, rumor has it that Christoph Waltz has the part of the main villain, and I'm hoping it can match his performance as Hans Landa. I love Christoph Waltz.

 

3. Jurassic World - Will this movie be good? I don't really know. But I do know that Chris Pratt with a Raptor Gang is something I cannot miss.

 

4. The Maze Runner: Scorch Trials - Let's see them keep it up! Scorch Trials was my favorite in the original book trilogy, and I'm hoping that the crew can continue the magic onscreen.

 

5. Inside Out - The Good Dinosaur was originally my most anticipated Pixar project, but the numerous problems that have popped up during its development have me more worried than excited. However, everything I have seen and heard of Inside Out is good, and I hope it can match the likes of Pixar's early works.

 

6. Jupiter Ascending - I admit I was merely cautious of the film until recently; but I'm starting to get excited. Will it be as good as The Matrix? Doubtful. But perhaps it can be a great movie just the same.

 

7. Mad Max: Fury Road - This just looks like a fun movie.

 

8. Ant-Man - Cautiously optimistic. Edgar Wright's departure worries me and I won't be surprised if the film suffers for it. But rumor says it's a heist film, and I'd love to see Marvel try their hand at that genre.

 

9. Cinderella - I keep hearing good things about this movie and I'm getting sucked in! It does look very good, and it'll be a nice change of pace from the rest of the stuff I'm seeing this year.

 

10. Fifty Shades of Grey - HAHAHA NO

 

10. London Has Fallen - I preferred White House Down out of the two "terrorists take over the White House" films back in 2013, but I still enjoyed Olympus Has Fallen and I'm interested to see where they take it in this film.

 

OTHER FILMS IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER:

-Star Wars: The Force Awakens (I remain wary of JJ Abrams and am waiting for a real trailer that gives us a hint of what to actually expect)

-Furious 7

-The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 2 (This is make-or-break; is it worth it?)

-Terminator Genisys (just to see the timeline mess)

-Tomorrowland

-Kingsman: The Secret Service

-The Peanuts Movie

The Good Dinosaur was originally my most anticipated Pixar project, but the numerous problems that have popped up during its development have me more worried than excited.

 

It's not the first Pixar film to have development issues, although it might be the first to have it's release date pushed back because of them. Still I'd give the studio the benefit of the doubt. They've proven several times that they can push out a quality product in a less-than-ideal timeline.

 

Cinderella I'm iffy about. Disney has been pretty hit and miss with their live action productions and the trailers aren't really doing it for me. I won't write it off yet, though.
