Hello Guys! In this post about Movies I will be giving a review about some of the films that I cannot wait to see. These are movies that will be coming out over the course of the next year, either they be close to the end of 2015 or right up to the Summer of 2016. There are dozens of movies that will be coming over the course of the next year but I have narrowed it down to five that I am most anxious to watch. There are not many movies that make me tap my feet with impatience but I feel some of these movies do.
5. X-Men: Apocalypse- This is a film that is something that doesn't make me impatient for it to come out but I do want to see it. I have always liked the X-Men films even though now they have gone a bit confusing and even with the added Wolverine film franchise spin off. The story of X-Men if you do not know it already is about a school for mutants that are lead by their Headmaster Professor Charles Xavier. The films have escalated from time to time, from movie to movie to progress the story that is based loosely on the comic books. But I find the X-Men films always something very interesting to watch but like I said it has become confusing, the fact that Professor X died in the third film but came back as he 'moved his conscience' into another body when his own physical one was exploded into tiny atoms. And the idea of the end of the last one 'Days of Future Past' were the last few films have been made pointless because what Wolverine had done by going back in time through his own mind. This has changed the very way that events that followed the seventies and made the first three X-Men films pointless as if to say they did not even happen, this is shown even more by numerous characters who had died have miraculously survived. But the end of 'Days of Future Past' leads up to the new film 'Apocalypse' there is not been a true plot yet but the character known as Apocalypse is one of if not the oldest mutant. He is immortal and it is rumored that the events of the last film and the disruption in time and space is why he turns up. The film is set to come out 27th May 2016.
4. Star Wars VII: The Force Awakens- Now this is a film I'm sure a lot of people cannot wait to see and I am one of them. I think my excitement for it is that the franchise is one of my favorites but I really want the film to prove me wrong. I want this film to be amazing, it's fine if it's not as good as the classics but good in it's own rights. This is because originally I thought that the movie was going to be stupid and ridiculous mainly because of the main villain in it who I think portrays a Revan look, but mainly because his crusader sword like lightsaber is stupid. But looking past that point the first trailer did nothing for me really, it gave me no form of excitement. However I thought that the second trailer was a lot better, it showed a lot more depth in the story and it was all round a better trailer, plus it involved Han Solo and Chewbacca who are legends of the film series. Though in this with the brand new Chrome Troopers who are just Storm Troopers revamped, it would hopefully answer what happened to the thousands of Storm Troopers that remained after the last film. I just hope this film is something that proves to be better than I anticipate even if the rumour of Han's death is true. The film is set to come out on the 18th December 2015.
3. Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice- Coming in third is this long awaited for film by Nolan and Snyder. This is a film that I have liked the idea of from the very start, it is a combination of two of my favourite superheroes who of course clash. This film seems like the retelling of the comic The Dark Knight Returns, which sees the return of Batman after being away for ten years however the story is a bit reversed. While in the film's trailer it shows it is Batman who intends to take down Superman because he is a false God and a menace, also it would seem that he has his own army. While in the comics it is the opposite as Batman is the one is intended to be stopped by Superman for he can not be controlled and he forms his own army to take back Gotham City after it went into chaos. But from the release of more trailers, the more excited I get from it and even the fact that there is reference to The Joker and the new Suicide Squad film. The one reference from The Joker we see is a Robin costume with spray paint writing "Ha Ha, the jokes on you Batman" on it. It is thought that this is the costume of Jason Todd, the Robin who was killed by The Joker and has done this to mock Batman to show how he failed in his efforts. There is also a rumour that The Joker is actually Jason Todd and it is because of Batman and his neglect or his failure to save him from a villain probably, the old form of Red Hood. This failure made him lose his mind and he became a character of Batman's own creation, Jason Todd becoming the Crown Prince of Crime. This is, if it is true, an adapted version or a combination of the comics 'The Killing Joke' and 'Under The Hood' but it is not confirmed if this will be the plot of that but if it is I'm not sure if I like it and how they've done it. The film is set to come out 25th March 2016.
2. Deadpool- Here's number two! I for cannot, and I mean cannot wait for this film! Never has an actor been so right for a film as Ryan Reynolds for the part of Deadpool, it was as if he was born just to play this role. I remember watching X-Men Origins: Wolverine were it included Reynolds as the character Wade Wilson and he pulled it off so well to be the 'Merc with a Mouth' and when I saw him in this role, I know I wanted more. This was a film i have been hoping to be confirmed for years and now it has I am waiting for it's arrival. It is true that Reynold's has played superheroes before, for example he played Green Lantern in the as said film, it was not his greatest film but a decent effort, it just did not suit him as well as Deadpool does. I did enjoy the 'Green Lantern' film up until the point that he placed a helicopter onto some green hot wheels, at that point I admit I have never been so cross from a film for being so stupid. I think what I love about this film is not just the actor who is so perfect for the role, it is also the character itself. The character is so different from the norm, he swears, he smokes, he has humour and is violent but also the character breaks the fourth wall and actually talks to the reader or in this perspective , the viewer. I love that idea because it shows that this dark character is completely mad from his past experiences and not even that, his isolation from everyone he loved as his skin cancer had left him deformed. But not just that his body and appearance is a curse as he is immortal and has to remain like that forever. It is set to come out 12th February 2016 and I cannot seriously wait for it!
1. Captain America: Civil War- Here it is the number one of them all! How to start with this one, I love this cinematic series and other people love it too, so much so that DC Comics are even trying to copy Marvel in their efforts. In the Marvel Cinematic Universe I have enjoyed every movie, I have found them to be brilliant and they get better as they go along and I personally cannot wait for this film as it pits two sides of Marvel Heroes against each other. If you are unaware then it is basically the Avengers split into two as war between Captain America and Iron Man wages. The sides that people take in this film has already been revealed online or at least rumoured but they show to be pretty hard evidence, there has also been photos leaked from sets and it makes me excited. The set photos already reveals that Black Panther will be in it, and also it shows a nemesis of Captain America's in it too, Crossbones, who was his mere alter ego in the last Captain America and was left for dead. There has also been some photos of the new Spider-Man actor Tom Holland on set in what appears to be a rustic outfit, as in a blue and red hoodie that he wears but it still unclear just like the photos. I do wonder what they are going to do that starts off the Civil War because i would have thought that it would have been due to Ultron that they would fight but at the end of the film it seemed that everything was confirmed. So, like in the comics, an act or bill is drawn up to regulate superhuman activity which does not go down greatly as Captain America is against this act and Iron Man is in support of it. It will be interesting what will happen or how it will play out, whether it be the same as the comics or if it will be different but I am really excited for it and I cannot wait for it to come out. If all plays out well it might be my favourite Marvel film. It is due to come out 6th May 2016.
Well that was my list of the most anticipated or the most anticipated by me, of films to come out within the next year or so. I hope that all these films live up to what I have said about them or even to be greater than what I said they could be, because there's nothing I hate more than a film looking better than it is. Thanks Guys for reading!
