Geez. There are probably 9-10 movies on that list that I'll probably end up seeing if I can make it happen. More than I was anticipating.
My friend and I did this the other night, we were surprised how many movies we wanted to see or could be convinced into seeing if people really enjoy them.
Eh only about half of those I would see, only a few I would go to the movies rather than wait for it to hit on demand or what not. Anchorman 2, The Wolverine, and The Great Gatsby are the only ones I'd really want to see in theaters. Really psyched for Zero Dark Thirty though.
2013 does seem like a good year for movies. You never now though, many could disappoint.
Saw Argo the other day. Very good movie but was slightly disappointed for some reason, maybe my expectations were to high, will see it again however. Really looking forward to Django as well (Feb premiere date in Sweden I think), seems like it has gotten great reviews and acclaim so far.
Star Trek will hopefully be awsome too, really enjoyed the first one.

I totally forgot about it, yeah, Star Trek has to be on that list too.
I used to watch every episode of Star Trek back when I was a kid (don`t remember much anymore though), but I didn`t like the movie.
And seriously, what the ****. We have a mid January release date here in Slovakia. That`s messed up. I want to see it already too.

Same here. I can`t be objective when it comes to Tarantino. And now he has Jamie Foxx.
but bobby (or the indian dude plowing gribbles wife) certainly rose to the top of that cast for me
Even Dale Gribble himself was a hilarious character. My friend smokes and drinks heavily, and he can definitely be persuaded by a silly conspiracy theory, so we call him Rusty Shackleford after Dale's alter ego.

Think it was a friend of mine while living in Dubai who got me hooked on Star Trek when I was younger, same as you though, most of it's gone. Don't particularly like the lead actor in the Star Trek movie but thought Abrams did a decent job.
Actually it's 18th of January here in Sweden (most likely same in Slovakia), knew it was either Jan or Feb. Glad it's not too far off.
Tarantino rocks. Love his work, did really well with IB so I have high hopes for Django.

My guess?
The director. The last movie was barely watchable.

He did, but I didn`t particularly like the cast (or the setting in certain scenes). Pine, Saldana or Bana. Loved Zachary Quinto though.
It`s 17th of Jan in here.
Just kidding.
Seriously though, I love Nolan, Scorsese, Fincher, Coens, Singer, Greengrass, Scott, Reitman and few more, but Tarantino (and Rodriguez haha) has always had a special place in that hierarchy.

You may have a point with the cast. For the most part I thought Saldana was OK, the others not so much. Quinto was the obvious standout but he's usually very good at what he does. Great in AHS series too.
Eh, Slovakia ahead of Sweden? BOOOO.
I'd have a hard time compiling a list of favourite directors. Those names aren't too shabby. Tarantino is one of a kind though. Nolan is up there as well, made too many great movies not to be.

The scary part is that's just my initial reaction from reading the list/titles. There are some on the list I probably haven't heard of as I haven't watched any trailers/looked ahead at all/etc. Good shot I will add a few in during the course of the year when I see trailers or hear about them. Also a good shot I don't get to all 9-10 I assumed from that list alone, so its likely to balance out. But still. That's crazy that I can say I'm interested enough in that many already.
we have a saying in my country...the coyote of the desert likes to eat the heart of the young and the blood drips down to his children for breakfast, lunch and dinner and only the ribs will be broken....
wait wait wait role models 2? is nothing sacred? i've heard of unnecessary sequels, but this is ridiculous
At some point I think they purposely make [bad] sequels just to cash a paycheck and hope it will drive sales/rentals of the original in preparation to see the sequel knowing full well the follow on will suck so bad it will even partially ruin the original.
