The reason why we got a better Bond film 3. Spidey-Bad reviews or not I want to see Venom 4. Harry Potter-Probably my favorite book of the series. 5. The Simpsons-One of the five greatest tv shows ever, very excited. 6. Ratatouille-Pixar can do no wrong in my book 7. Knocked Up-Looks really funny 8. Transformers-Could be really good or really bad 9. Die Hard-A series I've enjoyed but the PG-13 worries me. 10. Fantastic Four-The first one was good but the FF don't really do much for me. 11. Ocean's-Hopefully more like the first than the second 12. Evan Almighty-I love Steve Carrell but I don't know about this. 13. Shrek-Aren't they just repeating the same joke again?

I'll see Shrek but I'm honestly kind of tired of it. I was never a big Shrek fan anyway, but I know my son will want to see it. I'm not going to make a box office prediction list, but here's my list of movie's I'm most looking forward to: 1. Pirates - Yo ho, Yo ho, I'm there! 2. Spider-Man - Have to see the 3rd, loved the first two. 3. Harry Potter - Big fan of the books, can't wait. 4. Die Hard 4 - Yes, this is my 4th pick, John McClane rocks! 5. Transformers - Something about those live action robots, just looks awesome. Hope it isn't a bomb. 6. Even Almighty - Bruce was hilarious. 7. Ratatouille - Can't go wrong with Pixar. 8. The Simpsons - My son can't wait. 9. Fantastic Four - Hope it's better than the first one. 10. Good Luck Chuck - Dane Cook can be hilarious, and Jessica Alba is gorgeous. 11. Shrek - Feel obligated to see it.
