Man I think I will be going broke this year from all the movies I will be watching, and color me shocked about the 3rd mummy movie, and if I do see and whats his name shows up again then I will go insane. Little surprise they did another Punisher movie, though ok, box office told otherwise, and the same with Hellboy as well. Don't plan on seeing jumper just because it looks lame, maybe I do the DVD purchase later in the year maybe not. Other then that The rest of the movies should do successfully well and cloverfield will be one of my first reviews of 2008, should be interesting how I will write that to keep the movie secret, and I can tell you all this it isn't a godzilla remake I can assure you on that.

I dont get it. Is the new batman movie going to be a remake of batman 1? I loved that movie but if its going to be a remake I would much rather go and see another movie. I still have the batman 1 movie in vhs somewhere, I gotta go look for it. I never saw the first punisher movie, was it any good? It will be very interesting to see the indiana jones and rambo movies.
