I don't see too many movies, mostly horror and good suspense. But, Indiana Jones is on my list. I enjoyed the series, and look forward to this one.
11-21UConn NCAA soccer vs Fairfield
11-22 Uconn Hockey vs RIT
11-24 WWE Raw
12-5 PGW
12-6 NEW
12-13 ECCW Sourbridge tbd
1-3-09 GHTBL Awards dinner. Bolton, CT.
1-10 FRW womens doubleheader show (tbd)
1-11/12 JACK IS BACK season seven.
1-16-09 EWA Palmer
1-31 Big Shot Mohegan Sun
I'm psyched for The Dark Knight. The same creative team hit it out of the park last time.
IRON MAN will be the best comic book movie of the summer, probably the best movie of the summer, period. That said, I'm interested to see The Incredible Hulk. It looks like they are making a conscious effort to fix everything that was wrong with the first one. (Which was, well, everything.)
I am not especially psyched for Indiana Jones And The Golden Walker. Too little, WAY too late, plus I *hate* Shia LaWahtsisname, I wanted one of the f'ing transformers [btw that movie sucked] to step on him and squash him like the annoying little bug that he is. However I hope to be proven wrong about this one, though Shia LaBug will be annoying no matter what. It is Spielberg after all, it's not like the guy doesn't know how to make a good action/adventure movie. Even with an elderly lead actor.
Can't think of anything else I have much opinion about one way or the other, tho the new Adam Sandler looks really dumb but also really funny. I LMAO at the previews for it. Mike Myers' new one looks iffy also, but I'm a sucker for midget abuse.

John is psyched for the new Hulk because he's hoping it will cancel out that explosion-heavy monstrosity that called itself a Hulk movie. That and the fact that Edward Norton is Bruce Banner. He's a comic nerd, though, so he's into anything based on a good comic book. Me, not so much.

I'm psyched for Dark Knight and Indiana Jones. There's also that terror/suspense with Mark Whalberg called The Happening. That looks really good. The Hulk should be good too.

Yes, that looks good. It was filmed in 2006 for an 07 released, but got pushed back a couple times. It implies that it's based on actual events. However, nothing specific, it is a collection of actual events put together with a fictional twist.

Looks real good.
It's a remake of a French movie called "ILS" [French for "They"] that got a lot of good reviews a couple of years ago.
I always take the "based on actual events" assertion with a large grain of salt, it's been a classic marketing gimmick practically since the invention of the motion picture camera.

From Wikipedia:
The script is commonly said to be a remake of the 2006 French horror movie Them, or "Ils", which is also about a couple attacked by strangers in their home. However, while the films are similar, The Strangers is not a remake of that movie. In fact, The Strangers was written two years before "Ils" was made.
