The Fun Starts Today...

Wow, it's been 11 months since my last post, but here I am again for "The Most Anticipated Blog of the Year" I couldn't let my fans down...To recap the last 4 years, just scroll down 3 posts...I can't believe this is the 5th annual "Movies Simon Says You Should See." Am I on to something here? Should I quit my day job? Doubtful. How did I do over the last 4 years? I only saw 6 of the top 10 from last year, and I probably only saw maybe one other movie all of last year anyway. So, my goal for this year is to see them all. I'll tell you this, Indy and Love Guru did not belong in the top 50! Ok, so here we go. BTW, I just started my research today, but I've got to get this thing out because one of the movies debuts toKnight (bet you can't guess it). I'm not going to waste your time or mine putting this thing together. I'm going to give you a quick blurb on it and give you a link to watch the trailer. cause if the trailer can't sell you on it, well then you don't need to watch it. Here's one movie a week thru the summer. Let me know what I missed...

ToKnight – X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Gulp! Wait no longer, The X-Men are back., and the spotlight is on Wolverine. Oh, and Gambit is in this one, you know, the gay one…appearances by will.i.am and Ryan Reynolds too.

May 7 – Star Trek Starring Sylar (From Heroes) as Spock? Hmmm…and the dude from Harold and Kumar as Sulu. As one trailer said, “this ain’t your daddy’s Star Trek” Not sure what that means. But I never got into the old Star Trek, not sure why, but maybe this is worth seeing? It is JJ Abrams (Lost, Fringe, Alias).

May 15 – Angels & Demons Starring Tom Cruise. Movie adaptation of the book. Sequel to The Da Vinci Code.

May 21 – Terminator Salvation Christian Bale as John Connor…need I say more? As hesitant as I was about this when it was announced 5 years ago, I’m that much more excited…

May 29 – Drag Me To Hell Sam Raimi (Evil Dead and that Spiderman thing) is back to the “horror” movies. That’s pretty much why I’m bringing it up. I thoroughly enjoyed the Evil Dead movies.

June 5 – Land of the Lost Starring Will Ferrell. Ferrell being awkward as always, and I love it! It makes a new movie category that I’ll call “Comedy-Adventure”

June 12 – The Taking Of Pelham 123 Starring Denzel and Travolta. Remake of a 1974 movie I never saw, but Denzel is in this one…Travolta hijacks a subway train and Denzel stops him…sound familiar?

June 19 – Year One Starring Jack Black. I’m not sure why I like Jack Black, but I think he’s funny. Funny situation, so should be promising.

June 24 – Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen Starring Shia LaBeouf Megan Foxx and Dwight Schrute, and hotness Tyrese! I enjoyed the 1st one. It was entertaining, not completely satisfying, but entertaining. I expect the same from this. And it’s Michael Bay again…

July 1 – Public Enemies Starring Johnny Depp and Christian Bale. If there’s one thing I learned from living with Murph is that John Dillinger has a HUGE schlong. So maybe you’ll get to see it. This should be a great action movie following “outlaw” Dillinger on his bank robbing antics during the 20’s and 30’s. Call me gay, but I like Johnny Depp, and this looks promising.

July 3` - Funny People Starring Adam Sandler and Seth Rogen. Stand up comedians do funny stuff. I don’t really know what to put, it’s a comedy…Adam Sanler is dying and that’s about all I know, oh and he’s a UK fan now too, just like the rest of us. I didn’t really laugh during the trailer though…

July 10 – Bruno Starring Sacha Baron Cohen. Dude from Borat plays a gay Austrian fashion guy.
“How do you protect yourself from a dildo?”

August 7 – G.I. Joe – I can’t say enough about G.I. Joes as a kid. I had a couple hundred. I had pretty much every vehicle and “base”. Playing with GI Joes was an everyday event for my neighbor and I growing up. Hey Stephen Sommers, DON’T F THIS UP!!! From what I’ve heard, they already have. But it should still be good, I guess.

August 21 – Inglourious Basterds Starring Brad Pitt and Ryan from the Office. Brad Pitt in a Tarantino film? A remake of a remake sort of. Sure to be a bloody mess as Brad Pitt kills himself some Nazis.

And so you don't have to sort thru the garbage to decide which ones to see for yourself, here you go...

10.) The Taking of Pelham 123
9.) Year One
8.) Land of the Lost
7.) Star Trek (sorry Justin)
6.) Bruno
5.) Transformers
4.) Terminator
3.) Public Enemies
2.) G.I. Joe
and the #1 movie "Simon Says You Should See" is...

Thank you for reading, I hoped I helped you sort thru the crap.
