    For me, the false rumors surrounding Cloverfield about it being a setup for a Voltron movie got me pretty excited about the possibility of an actual Voltron movie. So I did some investigating and it looks like it has already been green-lighted by New Regency. Also, there was some site that wrote a review of the initial script for the movie which sounded VERY positive. To me, making a Voltron movie not come off as campy/cheesy would be a VERY difficult undertaking, but all we can do now is wait.

    The Incredible Hulk is actually a reboot. I'm curious as hell to see how that works out when The Hulk came out just a couple of years ago.

    what do you mean by reboot? like they are going to retell the story and not follow the first one?

    the last one was cool in some respects but it just seemed to fall apart

    I wonder if they planned for Joker to be a reoccurring villain in the series, or if this was his only appearance. Nonetheless, The Dark Knight should get huge box office numbers considering the tragedy surrounding it, kind of like what happened with the Crow (but probably much bigger)?

    Same here, along with Hancock.

    Yup, they're going to start off on a clean-plate and retell the whole Incredible Hulk story since the last one wasn't good. IMO, they're going to have to make this one extremely good since like someone else just said, the last one came out flat. So everyone is going to be like "What? Didn't they just do this same exact movie a few years ago?"

    From the movie's Wiki entry:

    This is the bad guy, Abomination, but according to the passage above he won't look like this in the movie, still it will be nice to have Hulk fighting with another monster:

    The Dark Knight - Although my excitement over it has been diminished quite a bit by Ledger's death. I'm sure it'll still turn out great, but it'll be heartbreaking watching it.

    Indy IV - It's Indy so of course I'm looking forward to it. But the movie is due out in 3 1/2 months and we're still waiting for a freaking trailer!

    Forgetting Sarah Marshall - Judd Apatow and Kristen Bell? I'm there.

    Pineapple Express - Judd Apatow, Seth Rogen, and James Franco? I'm there.

    Quantum of Solace - Casino Royale kicked some serious ass, so I'll see this one opening night.

    Must see:

    Wall-E
    The Dark Knight
    Quantum of Solace
    Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince

    Intrigued:

    Jumper
    SemiPro (looks like it could be more Talladega Nights than Blades of Glory)
    You Don't Mess with the Zohan (looks like a vintage Sandler movie)
    Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian (despite hating the first one)
    X-Files 2
    Star Trek (the teaser peaked my interest, the script not so much)
    Speed Racer
    Iron Man
    Hancock

    Skeptical but will watch:

    Indiana Jones IV (it's been a long time and Crusade ended perfectly)
    Incredible Hulk (I'm of the minority that actually loved Ang Lee's version)


    Umm, Why:

    10,000 BC (the first 10-20 sec of the trailer looked very promising, then they started speaking, then they were mammoths and saber tooths in Egypt)
    Sex and the City: The Movie
    Hellboy II: The Golden Army
    The Mummy: Tomb of the Emperor
    Saw V
    Hottie and the Nottie (it's Paris Hilton)
