Oh my sweet Lord, they've made a movie version of Trailer Park Boys? Unbelievable! Just watched the trailer. Don't think I'll want to spend money on it, but it's still totally wacky.

Oh yea, they showed a trailer for "The Ruins" too which looks like your basic teen horror flick. Some young adults stumble across some ancient ruins in Mexico and suddenly have worms crawling under their skin. They should've known better not to drink the water there.

When I saw Cloverfield yesterday, they had trailers for 'Jumper', 'Star Trek', and 'Iron Man'. Good Ol' Anakin and Mace Windu are in Jumper and I think it looked kinda cool.
I'm not a huge Star Trek fan, but I'm definitely not one of these Star Wars diehards that despises Trekkies and thinks that you're only allowed to like one Saga. I have seen all the movies and I would really like to give the new ST a chance.
Iron Man looked a little cheesy as expected, but at the same time, my inner comic-book-fanboy got all excited. Robert Downey Jr might actually give Tony Stark some character.

I was really looking forward to the time travellers wife and the lovely bones, but then they cast eric bana, and ryan gosling left the lovely bones, so now I'm convinced peter jackson is going to screw it up and focus too much on the "supernatural" element of the book which was my least favourite part.

I didn't mind Napoleon Dynamite until people started quoting the hell out of it. Ugh.

Ohyeah, I know. Listening to both her and Joe on the Joan commentary surprised me. They're so chill and cool! I think she said she even introduced the film to everyone.. Not too sure.

I think Napoleon Dynamite is really weird but funny!

Well, I bet Mary got obsessed with it because of her younger fellow cast members. Plus, she's a lot cooler in real life than most people might imagine.

YEAH, DEB! That was a great way of putting it. That movie surely surprised me too! Except Epic Movie. I knew it was going to be stupid and it was. At least I saw it on TV.

Napoleon Dynamite was a film I had way high expectations for and was let down. I can't believe Mary Steenburgen seen the film 4x or so. But then, we all have different tastes; the beauty of the world.

I liked the first one way more than I expected to. So I'm looking forward to the second one.

I think H&K2 can actually be stupid funny (since the trailer was). I was so against the first one initially, but it was quite hilarious and I actually got something out of it. Plus, Kal Penn was really sweet and nice when I met him, soooooooooo that's a major bonus. Yeah, yeah, that doesn't really pertain to the film and why I want to see it, but if someone's nice to me, I try to do a little good deed for them as well. I'm giving him my ~10$ ;P He's actually a fine actor; he just needs to stop being in such dumb, teen movies- like The Namesake.

Quite a few on here that I really wanna see!
Also some that I have to question--Harold & Kumar 2 is a Must-see?
To each his/her own

Good list though, I'll definitely be making some trips to the theater this year.

I only read The Lovely Bones because it was on the HS summer list ;/ It was a good book though.

Hahaha, I've seen that poster, Deb! He looks.. interesting. I just can't wait to see Kal Penn. He's so awesome.
