Yep! It is made by James Cameron (who directed Titanic), so it looks awesome. I hope it is clean (unlike Titanic).

Sadly.. most of the movies I'm looking forward to aren't going to be coming out in 2009 :(. Iron Man 2, Hulk 2, Pirates of the Caribbean 4, National Treasure 3, the fourth unnamed Bourne movie... I have to wait longer than I would like for those :(.
WHAT?! There's a fourth Bourne movie???

GAA I CAN'T WAIT!!


But for this year I'm really looking forward to 212.

I know! It's called The Bourne ToOer, and stars Matt Damon as Taq, Julia Roberts as LizzieG, Julie Andrews as Catspaw and Jim Carrey as the villian, American Eagle. \:D/

The first three were based on a book series, but the new one is going to be totally new. It doesn't have a title yet, but I'm excited as well. :)

I don't understand where all the type for this movie is coming from. It looks like a cheaper version of Narnia... but I'll see it eventually. \:D/
Some poor kid never got the book read to them when they were in kindergarten.

Haha...

I'm looking forward to seeing The Time Traveler's Wife!

I also want to see the Princess and the Frog, New Moon, and am highly curious about Sherlock Holmes.

I have seen Harry Potter 6, My Sister's Keeper, and Julie&Julia. All three weren't bad... HP could have been better...

According to my mother, I loved Where the Wild Things Are when I was little... Not that I remember it, but still. It looks cute, so maybe I'll convince my friend to rent it so I can make her with it with me. \:D/

Pirates of the Caribbeans 4: Fail. Before it even comes out. Fail. They should've quit while they were ahead with the second one. :(

ditto'd. The first one's the only one worth watching.

I ended up seeing GI Joe last night... not a MASTERPIECE or overly astounding, but, eh, I was overall entertained. Good mindless action flick, if nothing deep. ;) Though I am a child of the 80's, I was never really into the cartoon and toys (my parents thought it was too violent or something. :(), so I was going in without any preconceived notions or really being able to say "HEY! That's not how THE ORIGINAL SOURCE MATERIAL WAS!! :x" which probably made it more enjoyable then it would have been to a die hard fan...

Kind of like Transformers... was never allowed to watch the stuff when I was a kid (though I had a handful of toys), so when I saw the movie and all my friends were complaining it wasn't anything like the old cartoon, I was oblivious to their hate and just thought it was a fun movie. ;)

But... Transformers is the worst movie EVER. :mad:
