I have decided that my New Years Resolution is to see more movies in 2011, and this year looks to be very good for us guys. Here is a preview of the movies that could tweak my interest enough to get me to the theater.
Green Hornet 1/14: Seth Rogen superhero movie based on the old TV show with Bruce Lee. We will see if Rogen can pull of being a superhero
The Mechanic 1/28: Jason Statham as an assassin in a remake of a old bronson film. You had me at Jason Statham.
I Am Number Four 2/18: Action/Thriller about a guy on the run with special powers. Also has the hot blond from Glee
Battle: Los Angeles 3/11: Alien invasion movie with hottie Michelle Rodriguez
Sucker Punch 3/25: A kick-ass looking action fantasy from Zack Snyder of 300 and Watchman fame. This tops my list of must sees.
Your Highness 4/8: Hilarious looking comedy set in medieval times with Danny Mcbride, James Franco, and Natalie Portman. From the same director that made Pinapple Express.
Hanna 4/8: I am a sucker for flicks with teen girls who are assassins or like to kill people, ala The Professional and Kick-ass. So this movie is right up my alley.
Thor 5/6: Marvel comic movie about the Norse God of Thunder from director Kenneth Branaugh. Hopefully on par with the Iron Man franchise
X-men: First Class 6/3: X-men is re-booting with this movie about a young Magneto and Professor X and the origins of the team
Green Lantern 6/17: Ryan Reynolds as the DC hero with lots of cool aliens and special effects.
Transformers 3 7/1: 3rd go around for Transformers which should provide a couple of hours of mindless fun
Captain America 7/22: Marvel's 2nd movie this year that leads into the Avengers in 2011. Heres hoping Chris Evans can pull off the look and feel of cap.
Cowboys and Aliens 7/29: Cool looking Sci-Fi Western with Daniel Craig and Harrison Ford, directed by Jon Favreau.
Conan the Barbarian 8/19: Re-make of the cult classic. If they make him bad-ass, this could be the beginning of a sweet franchise
Colombiana 9/2: Zoe Saldana. Assassin. Revenge. Nuff Said.
The Thing 10/14: Prequel to the great 1982 film of the same name that starred Kurt Russell and Keith David. I would rather see a sequel but I will give it a chance
Immortals 11/11: Don't know much about this movie other than its about a war of the gods, it has the hot chick from Slumdog Millionaire, and I needed a movie from November
Mission Impossible 4 12/16: Probably the last MI for Tom Cruise as Jeremy Renner looks to be taking over the franchise
Movies that could be for the guys but I will be taking the wife to see
Hangover 2 5/26, Pirates 4 5/20, Sherlock Holmes 2 12/16
If there is anything that you think needs to be added or maybe something you don't think is manly enough to be listed let me know.
See you guys at the movies
Your Movie Guru

Okay, so I know this is a "Man's" blog...but there are a few on here that your wife would like to watch as well...So, who gets your company? Your wife or your buddies? (Remember who puts out...).
ReplyDeleteOh, I didn't read the end part. Love you, honey. I will definitely see those three with you, but would like to add the following: Hanna and XMen.
ReplyDeleteOk, Amy what part of "Man's blog" do you think allows you to add comments to this? :-)
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I am excited about your selection of movies Pete. I REALLY hope that we will get more movies in this year. I will promote your blog all day if it gets people's attention.
By the way, did you see that Machette comes out on DVD on Tuesday and yes, I will be purchasing it. Maybe I will bring it over and we can watch it on your kick ass TV.
How nice of you to include movies you'll be taking the wife to. Which one's are you taking your girlfriend to?
