I'm not looking forward to Clone Wars or The Mummy.

I'm not looking forward to The Dark Knight at all, Christopher Nolan has yet to put out anything better than an average movie, and this will be no different.

I've never understood the love for Memento. It's not a bad movie, but it's a routine and average movie. He tried some interesting things but they never really gelled together. Memento isn't a movie I'd trash, but it's not a good movie either.

I can't think of a better example of a movie that creates sympathy and understanding of the main character by mimicking his disorder through a variety of filmmaking techniques, mostly editing. Thats hardly routine or average IMO. Perhaps it wasn't effective enough for you, but IMO it was nothing short of awesome.

let's see. A movie that everyone's looking forward to except me. That's easy, Wanted and Hellboy 2. Two movies I have no interest in whatsoever.

Clone Wars... Enough is enough. If you're gonna beat SW to death there, George, can you at least beat the OT to death... A little sick of the Clone Wars. If he wanted to deal with that part of the story so badly why the hell didn't the PT revolve around it like it should have?

QFT

I also have no interest in seeing it. Clone Wars will probably be the first Star Wars movie that I'll skip in theaters.

Sir Alec Guinness of why he did Star Wars:
"I thought the dialogue was pretty terrible and the charactors fairly
meaningless-but there was story value. I found I wanted to know what happened next,
what was on the next page? In the end I thought:
why not?"

Actually, I'd prefer to see the era post-ROTS and pre-ANH.
