The Upcoming Classics: The Best Anticipated Movies of 2009

February:

New York, I Love You:

(February 12th limited)This movie has an all-star cast (Orlando Bloom, Anton Yelchin, Rachel Bilson, Blake Lively are just a few) portraying the love and excitement of America's greatest city. It's a bunch of short films that are connected into one big story line. It's a story that shows we are all connected, by love and just by life.

March:

Watchmen:

(March 6th wide) Are you ready for a new comic book movie? This one is a highly anticipated science fiction movie is finally coming out. It's got the classic story line of a band of superheroes that band together to fight the injustice of the world.

April:

17 Again:

(April 17th wide) Matthew Perry and Zac Efron in the same movie? How ever will the females handle themselves? It's a storyline we have heard before but different. It's about how Matthew Perry gets a second chance to be seventeen, again.

May:

X-men Origins: Wolverine:

(May 1st wide) Ever wonder where that hunk of a wolf came from in the movie X-men came from? Well here is a movie just to answer that question. Hugh Jackman is back to clear a few things up.

Star Trek:

(May 8th wide) I couldn't just write one movie preview because both these movies are going to be amazing! Star trek follows the storyline of the original with a cast that includes Chris Pine and Anton Yelchin. Science Fiction is making a comeback.

June:

Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen:

(June 26th wide) I'm not usually one for sequels, but hello, this one sounds absolutely amazing! The original cast is back to save the world! Personally I'm excited to see Shia Labeouf.

July:

Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince:

(July 17th wide) Now this was supposed to come out this past November but with the release of Twilight it was pushed to July. Now we get to see Harry finally be with Ginny Weasley.

August:

G.I. Joe: Rise of the Cobra

(August 7th wide) I guess toys are making a comeback. This movie unlike the previous mentioned Transformers is not a sequel. The trailer just aired during the super bowl and some guys got more excited then for the actual game. Get ready to by the guy version of Barbies.

September:

Nine:

( September 9th wide) Now I'm not saying that an all-star cast makes a movie good, but it sure does help. Daniel Day-Lewis joins Kate Hudson, Pentople Cruz, and Nicole Kidman. It's about a man and his love triangle and how he needs to finish his film. Good luck with that.

October:

Toy Story (Re-released in 3D):

( October 2nd wide) Now I'm sure we've all seen this movie, but I'm sooo excited to see it in 3D the last time this was in theaters I was four, no I get to see it all over again.

November:

New Moon:

(November 20th wide) It's time for the sequel to the blockbuster movie Twilight. It's pretty far away but there is already loads of buzz around this movie. Dakota Fanning has been picked for the role. Vanessa Hudgens has also auditioned for a part. It should be interesting nonetheless. Hopefully there will be better effects this time.

December:

The Lovely Bones:

(December 11th wide) Peter Jackson brings Mark Walhberg for this horror film about a girl that gets killed by a serial killer then either has to protect her family or get revenge. Oh dear, what will she choose?
