Over the weekend I put together my list of potential films to add to my 2009 Summer Movie Preview and over the course of this week I hope to put the final touches on it, but before I get too far I wanted to get an idea of what exactly all of you thought about the films due out this May, June, July and August. The list you see in the poll below includes over 60 titles of which I currently intend on turning into 50 titles for the preview, but of those 50 I want to have 25 of them considered the “RopeofSilicon Most Anticipated Movies” of Summer 2009 and looking over the list I came up with my personal top 25, but I felt it would be just as, if not more, interesting to include a user generated top 25 as well.
You can look at last year’s summer preview by clicking here if you want to see just how exactly it will be all sorted out, although this year I plan on adding a few additional bells and whistles to make it a little more all-encompassing. What that entails you will have to wait and find out, but for now let’s begin voting.
Are blockbusters such as Terminator Salvation, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince and Star Trek more your speed?
How about animated favorites such as Pixar’s Up, Fox’s Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs or Hayao Miyazaki’s Ponyo?
Maybe comedy is more to your liking. Films such as Apatow’s Funny People, Sacha Baron Cohen’s Bruno or Warner’s The Hangover. Then again, maybe Oscar nominated directors get your blood running such as Ang Lee’s Taking Woodstock, Sam Mendes’ Away We Go, Ron Howard’s Angels and Demons, Steven Soderbergh’s The Girlfriend Experience, Woody Allen’s Whatever Works, Stephen Frears’ Cheri, Michael Mann’s Public Enemies or Quentin Tarantino’s Inglourious Bastereds. Yup Oscar nominated directors make good summer flicks too. There is a lot to choose from… choose wisely.
