So
we have seen a lot of great movies this summer but the next few months
some great movies we are MAJORLY excited to see, are coming out! So
here, in no particular order, is what we are looking forward to most and
why!
The Hunger Games: Catching Fire 11/22
So
this is the #1 movie I am looking forward to this year! It is my
favorite book in the Hunger Games series and after the excellent job
they did with the first movie I am totally pumped for this one. I might
add that the casting for Finnick Odair is SPOT ON for me. November 22,
get here already!
Ditto
to everything already said... (except for the favorite book thing). I
have to admit that I have been counting down the days until November 22
since they said that was the release date. The last movie was done
almost perfectly- the casting, the acting, everything! This series at
times can be criticized because of the whole "kids-killing-kids theme"
but this movie is going to prove those idiots wrong! There's a whole
underlying theme that is brought out in this story that sets up the
finale to the series. Anyway... there aren't enough words to describe
how excited I am to see this movie!
Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters 8/7
Okay,
so the first movie in this series was a little disappointing for me,
but this book was probably my favorite of the series and as long as they
don't mess it up again, it could be one to watch time and time again
just because I enjoyed the book so much! Let's all keep our fingers
crossed for this one to turn out better.
The
first movie was such a letdown for me. I liked the book but the movie
was almost a different storyline from the book AND they changed the bad
guy (although Luke is still a bad guy). I am most excited for this
movie because Nathan Fillion (who plays Richard Castle on the TV show
Castle) is playing one of the gods in this movie. I liked this book
better than the first one so I hope that it will be 100% better than the
first one.
The Mortal Instruments : City of Bones 8/21
This
is one movie I have been waiting for almost as much as Catching
Fire! The book series is one of my absolute favorites and I am
re-reading them again right now which is making me even more excited to
see it. From a trailer POV, The casting is excellent especially for
Jace. I am super excited to see how Jamie Campbell Bower does in this
role. Hopefully this will be all that I am expecting and more!
I
plan on reviewing the book or the movie soon but I just wanna say that I
had to keep putting the book down for school reading the past few years
so I have the first part of the book memorized so they better do a good
job on that part! ;) I definitely think they casted Jace great, he
looks like how I pictured Jace in the book. As far as everyone else
goes I felt like they casted most of them good. Clary and her mom look
almost identical.
Ender's Game 11/1
Ender's Game is a book I read a couple years ago thanks to Banana's
4th grade teacher. I probably would have never picked it up otherwise
but I'm certainly glad I did! I think this one has a lot of potential
and I was THRILLED when they cast Harrison Ford for the movie!
(Interesting fact: Banana was named after Harrison Ford. He has such a cool mom!)
That
was going to be MY interesting fact! I thought the book was good but I
hardly remember anything about it so I can't wait for my memory to be
refreshed. I do think based on the casting for this movie as well that
it will be a good movie, they have lots of good actors such as Harrison
Ford!
One Direction: This is Us 8/30
Honestly, I cannot wait to read Banana's post
after mine on this one! The main reason I am looking forward to this
movie is that I will get to have a date with my 8yo. I also want to see
it due to the fact that Never Say Never turned me into a big fan of
Justin Bieber and I'm honestly hoping I will love 1D even more after
seeing this one.
OMG! I LIKE TOTALLY CAN'T WAIT FOR THIS MOVIE! I LOVE ALL OF 1D AND I SO HOPE I GET TO GO!
Now... for my true thought... I do want to go on that "date" with Flamingo and the 8yo!
But I want to be in the theater next door watching City of Bones...
because it will be the #2 movie of the year and that's only because
Catching Fire is coming out this year... ;)
Free Birds 11/1
Okay,
so on the whole I am kinda tired of sub-par animated movies (The latest
being Turbo which I just keep referring to as "the stupid snail movie"
is one I don't care if I EVER see) That being said, when I saw the
trailer for Free Birds I was intrigued. The little bit of government
espionage that it looks like they have woven into the story makes
me interested as well as the fact that I can't wait to see what we
should/will be eating for Thanksgiving dinner instead of turkey once
they change the past.
I'm
gonna have to say that I agree with how bad animated movies have been
this year except for Despicable Me 2 (Monsters University wasn't bad,
but it was only worthy of parenthesis). That being said, I can't wait
for this movie because it looks good enough for me to talk about it!
I'm up for any movie with Woody Harrelson in it (especially since he
played Haymitch in The Hunger Games). I hope that we end up eating
something good on Thanksgiving after they change it.
Thor: The Dark World 11/8
The
#1 reason I'm looking forward to Thor is of course Chris Hemsworth.
The man is beautiful and I can never get too much of him! I was a big
fan of the first Thor movie and am excited to see where they take this
story next and also how they transition what happened in The Avengers
(one of my favorites from last year) into this one.
OMG!! I SOOO totally think that Thor is as hot as like all the 1D boys combined! (Just joking there again)
But in all seriousness, I thought the first one went by so fast and I can't wait to see what they do with this one. I have seen the trailer and I think that it may be better than the other one but we will have to see. I hope it keeps on moving like the last one.

So
that's it! We hope you enjoyed our thoughts and we always welcome your
comments! Happy movie watching! We seriously want your comments
though... ;)
