20 Most Anticipated Films for 2006

This service is free. These 20 films here are the 20 films I wont be missing. What I love about movies though is the surprise package which pops up, which are not on the list.

But, all these films I recommend you see.

A more, MEATY post will be coming soon. i.e One with more of a punch :)

1.Casino Royale
A new James Bond. Although I am unsure about 'Daniel Craig' stepping in, its always worth a watch.

2. Pirates of the Caribbean: Dean Man's Chest
The first Pirates just continues to grow on me. Any anything with Johnny Depp in it is worth seeing.

3. The Da Vinci Code
Love the book. Dont think Tom Hanks makes a good Robert Langdon, but this could be massive at the box office.

4.Stranger than Fiction
Will Ferrel - need I say more. Will plays a character that wakes up one morning to find his life is being narrated. But only he can hear it.

5.Superman Returns
Kevin Spacey as Lex Luther. Oh baby, baby!

6.Zodiac
David Fincher (Fight Club, Se7en), makes his impact felt on the big screen since 'Panic Room'. My favourite director. what more can I say.

7.Poseidon
A remake of the Poseidon Adventure. This was the film which got me hooked/adcited to movies! Remaking a classic is always danger. But always worht a watch.

8.Mission Impossible 3
This film may self distruct in 5,4,3.....but hey.....

9.The Departed
Di Caprio, Damon, Nicholson, Sheen, Whalberg, Baldwin. Scorsese directs them all in this film about the Mafia, Boston police and violence

10. The Visiting
Those keen to check out 'Daniel Craig' before he plays Bond, can as he teams up with Nicole Kidman in this loose remake of 'Invasion of the Body Snatchers'

11. Inside Man
Denzel Washington and Jodie Foster. A bank robbery? An Inside Man? Count me in!

12. Lady in the Water
M.Night Shymalan comes in close behind David Fincher. The work he did in Sixth Sense and Signs is brilliant. Apparently this is a 'bed time story'. Hmm cant wait!

13. American Dreamz
A satire of 'American Idol' with Hugh Grant. Could be funny

14. For your Consideration
Christopher Guest who brought us 'Best in Show' and 'A Mighty Wind' has a new film about acting auditions. The original mocumentury film.

15. Lucky You
Eric Bana and Drew Barrymore.Las Vegas poker tables is the setting. Curtis Hanson Directs for thos fans of L.a Confidential!

16. Munich
Spielberg. Assassinations. Olympic games. Oscar contendor.

17. Hostel
Tarrintino stated 'This is the best script I have ever read'. Its a shame he didn't direct, but I am keen to see what he is on about.

18. Cars
Pixar, Pixar, Pixar.

19. A History of Violence
Made waves in America about the impact on the violent history of America.

20. The Break Up
Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughn. Vince's Character refuses to accept that Jennifer's character dumped him. Could be funny!
