Most Anticipated Movies of 2010

Iron Man 2 – Trailer
If the sheer size and bombast of the first Iron Man wasn’t enough to get you excited about the sequel, this trailer should do the job. Most of us would have been fine with more Robert Downey Jr. quips and some explosions, but Director Jon Favreau and co. have obviously done all they can to upgrade the suit – adding Scarlett Johansson (in leather, no less) and fixing perhaps my only problem with the first movie – we now have a solid villain, and it’s Mickey Rourke.

Alice In Wonderland – Trailer
Lewis Carroll already conjured incredible images in my mind with his Alice In Wonderland books, but this year we’re going to see the incredible images he conjured in Tim Burton’s mind. And what a mind it is. The man who brought us Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Big Fish is taking an older Alice on a new journey, loosley adapted from the books. If the leaked photos are any indication, be prepared for a mind melter that blurs the line of reality.

Tron Legacy – Trailer
When the original Tron came out, it didn’t look like anything that had come before it. Now, computer effects and animation work seemlessly with actors in just about every movie. Judging from the teaser trailers and images we’ve seen, the sequel balances keeping the original Tron look (which still looks good by today’s standards) and taking on the problems of the original: slow pacing and weak action. Oh, and it’s in 3D with a score by Daft Punk.
