Don't sleep on Paddington 2
It's 2018 in America. America's the only country that matters, therefore it's a 2018 movie.

Aquaman, Bumblebee, Mortal Engines, and Bohemian Rhapsody all sound like enormous disasters waiting to happen. I think Aquaman is the only one of those that gets past 80.
Needless to say I'd give this a very solid shot to win the entire year. I think it finishes second or third but 350+ wouldn't stun me.
If Jason Momoa remains shirtless for at least 75% of the movie, Aquaman will easily win the Christmas season. James Wan is smart enough to know that having that factor will instantly propel interest among women and gays (I know I'll see it five times if that happens)

January is looking like a strong slate for me personally with all of the Oscar contenders expanding and a couple of other things like Paddington and Insidious (I need a new horror movie). February otoh looks like dreck. Black Panther, Annihilation, and Winchester are the only things I'm looking forward to (I'm not convinced Cloverfield is making that date). I'll probably see The 15:17 to Paris and Game Night because of how light the month is, but bleh.

That still is incredibly obnoxious
I personally hate the color scheme. It looks super muted and not very fun-looking. I want to see the costumes and the set come to life, not be grayed out.

Maybe it's just because of my upbringing, but I always felt while it was religious/spiritual, it didn't feel overtly Christian. Unlike another famous children's series I could mention.
Don't you dare talk smack about my boy Aslan like that. I hope Liam Neeson comes and goes Taken on your ass.

October 12th - I didn't think Black was confirmed yet? Probably wise to lock him in now after Jumanji.
www.deadline.com/2017/12/jack-black-goosebumps-2-alpha-new-release-dates-1202233292/
The article says "starring Jack Black" so I think he's coming back. Honestly, I'm confused as to why Sony would get rid of him in the sequel to begin with.

I didn't know where else to put this, but considering it's about 2018, might as well put it here.
Anyways, Fandango just released their Top 10 Most Anticipated polls again. As always, it's important to understand these need to be taken with a grain of salt and don't automatically gurantee a movie will be a hit or a bomb, especially as there are dozens of films out that don't have any marketing yet to excite moviegoers. Also, remember that Zoolander 2 was #9 in the 2016 list. Hopefully, Fandango will do what they did last year and give us the Top 30.
Anyways:
Most anticipated movie:
1. Avengers: Infinity War (May 4)
2. Black Panther (Feb. 16)
3. Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (June 22)
4. Untitled Deadpool sequel (June 1)

6. Incredibles 2 (June 15)
7. Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald (Nov. 16)
8. A Wrinkle in Time (March 9)
9. X-Men: Dark Phoenix (Nov. 2)
10. Ocean’s 8 (June 8)

2. Jason Momoa as Aquaman (Aquaman)
3. Tom Hardy as Venom (Venom)
4. Sophie Turner as Jean Grey/Phoenix (Dark Phoenix)
5. Evangeline Lilly as The Wasp (Ant-Man and the Wasp)

1. Josh Brolin as Thanos (Infinity War)
2. Johnny Depp as Gellert Grindelwald (The Crimes of Grindelwald)
3. Michael B. Jordan as Erik Killmonger (Black Panther)
4. Jessica Chastain as the yet-to-be-revealed villain (Dark Phoenix)
5. Nick Castle as Michael Myers (Halloween)
Most anticipated horror thriller
1. Untitled Cloverfield movie
2. Halloween
3. The Purge: The Island
4. Insidious: The Last Key
5. A Quiet Place
Most anticipated family movie
1. Incredibles 2
2. A Wrinkle in Time
3. Mary Poppins Returns
4. Ralph Breaks the Internet: Wreck-It Ralph 2
5. Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation
Quick thoughts:
-A Wrinkle in Time appearing in the top 10 could be because it already has marketing, but the fact it beat out films like Ant-Man and Ready Player One seems relatively impressive.
-LOL at Cloverfield being the most anticipated horror film. Hey Paramount, I think you should start your marketing now. Also, New Mutants not making the top 5 is disconcerting. Unless Fandango put it in the superhero category instead of horror, so...
-The lack of representation of RPO outside of Tye Sheridan and Olivia Cooke is a touch disconcerting.
-I know it's because people were introduced to him in the first film, but Depp over Jordan, Chastain, and Castle is just...ew. (dcasey, don't you even dare try to make a flame war here)
But again, take all of this with all of the grains of salt in the world.

Again, the only thing I want Jumanji to do is to cross $305M. That way, it beats Skyfall, and becomes Sony's biggest non-Spidey film.

Could Darkest Hour reach the 100M mark?

Why do you people think, that Ready Player One (a movie, that filled with cultural references and easter eggs, that spans several decades of generations!) is not a lock for 100m yet? Lol Its like you can't see people going into the cinemas just to see Freddy Kruger, King Kong and Chuck The Doll and Iron giant while main character drives Delorian around! Don't be ridiculous! This thing isn't only making 100m, but it will open as big as your typical Star Wars saga movie, then it will do Avatar bussiness later on!

Time to prepare for the Oscars. This week I will try to watch The Florida Project, Bright and Lady Bird.
One of those movies is not like the others.

10th anniversary of this masterpiece coming up.
I still remember little 10 year old me seeing that poster in the theater once, and being absolutely traumatized by the mouth-eye things.

As people know I was gone for several months. Well I just finally noticed that Sad Ben is gone!
Where the HELL is my Sad Ben, dammit!Yeah, yeah, so late to the party that I actually arrived at another one. Long hair, don't care.
...
...
If someone has Sad Ben stored as a gif that I can put on my imgur account, I'd appreciate it.
We got rid of it and replaced it with Doctor Who, because...well, Affleck's kinda been in the news recently.

It's fine. I'll just stare at Armie's Hammer tomorrow. It'll probably be just as beautiful.
