- DirectorRobert LoveAsa Turner and Jake Windsor attempt to outwit the evil General Jackobson and the worldgov who have an unknown personal vendetta against Turner. They take refuge in the worldgov's enemy nation of Ethiopia.Even though there is very little press about the book this movie is based on and the production details are very loose (there isn't even a confirmed director or producer yet), The Time Runner has an action packed plot and I highly suggest reading it. The movie (should it be made) should be quite good too!
- DirectorNeil BurgerStarsShailene WoodleyTheo JamesKate WinsletIn a world divided by factions based on virtues, Tris learns she's Divergent and won't fit in. When she discovers a plot to destroy Divergents, Tris and the mysterious Four must find out what makes Divergents dangerous before it's too late.I keep having these books where people tell me to read them and I don't and then when I do, I figure out that there are movies based off of them. I think Divergent looks good from the trailers but lots of people think it looks cheesy.
- DirectorPhillip NoyceStarsBrenton ThwaitesJeff BridgesMeryl StreepIn a seemingly perfect community without war, pain, suffering, differences or choices, a young boy is chosen to learn from an elderly man, the true pain and pleasure of the "real" world.They have bounced around the rights to this movie so much but it seems that Jeff Bridges has finally exercised the option for the rights and started filming in South Africa. Why South Africa, I'm not sure.
- DirectorWes BallStarsDylan O'BrienKaya ScodelarioWill PoulterThomas is deposited in a community of boys after his memory is erased, soon learning they're all trapped in a maze that will require him to join forces with fellow "runners" for a shot at escape.So, February wasn't good enough and they had to back it up to september. Typical!!! Should be a good movie though. The book was quite good even though I had the misfortune to read it by audiobook who's reader is completely emotionless.
- DirectorJoss WhedonStarsRobert Downey Jr.Chris EvansMark RuffaloWhen Tony Stark and Bruce Banner try to jump-start a dormant peacekeeping program called Ultron, things go horribly wrong and it's up to Earth's mightiest heroes to stop the villainous Ultron from enacting his terrible plan.I mean, how can you go wrong. You've got a good god, a bad god, a metal dude, a patriot with no apparent powers except he's strong, a woman named after a spider, a guy who shoots magic arrows and a giant ugly green guy who we found out at the end of the first movie is "always angry." How can you go wrong? Oh, that's right, they probably will end up making the sequel a train wreck, most sequels are. Especially when the original was only so-so.
- DirectorMichael BayA sci-fi story set in the aftermath of a robot uprising.I never read Robopocalypse but it's about a robot invasion that destroys mankind. What's not to love? Oh yah, they're never going to make it, I forgot. In 2012 it looked like they were finally getting things underway but then Stephen Spielberg pulled the plug (well, more like stopped the faucet indefinitely.) Boo you Stephen. I was really looking forward to yet another "let's kill all of mankind with the weapons they gave us" movie. Grrr!
- Okay, I know this is more of a "chickbook" (if that's even a term), but I really liked it and I think they should totally bring Legend to the big screen. I know a draft of the script was sent to CBS Films but who knows if they're ever going to get their feet off the ground (that probably wasn't the best analogy but so what). I think they should have some really famous actor play Metias and then rising actors playing Day and June. It worked for Ender's Game. Oh wait, no it didn't! Let's not do that :).
- DirectorZack SnyderStarsBen AffleckHenry CavillAmy AdamsBatman is manipulated by Lex Luthor to fear Superman. Superman´s existence is meanwhile dividing the world and he is framed for murder during an international crisis. The heroes clash and force the neutral Wonder Woman to reemerge.Now, I'm not sure what would compel the two most beloved heroes in the world to fight each other, maybe something like "My cape is cooler than yours. Ha Ha Ha." "No, mine is cooler" "Get outta here!" "You get outta here!" To me, this whole movie (I believe it stars Ben Affleck or something) seems like the ultimate episode of Deadliest Warrior. I wonder who the villain is going to be.
- DirectorFrancis LawrenceStarsJennifer LawrenceJosh HutchersonLiam HemsworthKatniss Everdeen is in District 13 after she shatters the games forever. Under the leadership of President Coin and the advice of her trusted friends, Katniss spreads her wings as she fights to save Peeta and a nation moved by her courage.It bothers me how every single big saga has to copy Harry Potter with it's "two part" finale thing. I mean, Mockingjay wasn't any longer than Catching Fire or The Hunger Games itself. Now they go and make it into two parts. Again, typical!!! I hate when they have to add stuff in order to keep it in two parts. Ugh, it bothers me sooo much! Don't get me wrong, I will be there at the midnight (or 8Pm as they like to do now) premiere, screaming my head off with everyone else, I just think they could make it one movie!
- DirectorJosé PadilhaStarsJoel KinnamanGary OldmanMichael KeatonIn 2028 Detroit, when Alex Murphy, a loving husband, father and good cop, is critically injured in the line of duty, the multinational conglomerate OmniCorp sees their chance for a part-man, part-robot police officer.I had 100% no interest in seeing this movie until I saw the second trailer. I was thrilled! I especially like the use of very little music and just really sci fi sound effects through the duration of the trailer. However, remakes often suck so I will wait until the fan reviews come out of RT to make any final ticket purchases.
- DirectorSam BrooksStarsJacob BaldyGabriel Herz-KahnZach HillIn a post-apocalyptic world, a man is forced to be a guinea pig in experiments that send him back in time to a moment in time to which he has a strong emotional bond.
