Movies! Movies!
Dec. 19th, 2011 09:28 amYup, still floating on Cloud 9 after seeing MI4: Ghost Protocol. Yeah, it's that good. I haven't been this smitten with a movie since XMFC. And it's mostly because of Jeremy Renner who's simply amazing as Brandt. It's great that Tom Cruise's Ethan actually has someone of equal skills on his team this time. I can't stop re-watching the scene where Ethan pulls a gun on Brandt and Brandt takes it from him - not really a spoiler, it's in the trailer: here, 1:38-1:41. It's fantastic. I wonder how long they rehearsed it to do it so fast. I literally do a happy wiggle in my seat every time I see it!
And next year? I plan to go and see, in alpha order:
Battleship (depends on the reviews)
Dredd (depends on the reviews)
GI Joe: Retaliation
Hansel and Gretel (Jeremy Renner!)
Haywire
J. Edgar (the twins wouldn't let me live it down if we didn't go and see this one!)
Prometheus
Sherlock Holmes
Skyfall
Snow White and the Huntsman
The Avengers
The Bourne Legacy (Jeremy Renner!)
The Dark Knight Returns (eh, not really excited about it, though, not a fan of Nolan's take on the Batman myth *shrugs*)
The Hobbit
Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy (the twins are big fans of Forsyth)
Total Recall
Underworld: Awakening
Wow! It's good that I have a membership card in our cinema club that gives me discounts O_o
What about you, folks? What do you plan to go and see next year?
