I’m going to the midnight release of The Watchmen I’ve been counting down fro over 6 months now. Comes out 2 days after my birthday =D.
EXCELLENT very pumped for this year!! ha
It should be good to see terminator out again but I’m not quite sure about the other ones, could be more trash again!
Im down for some Harry Potter. Heck yea.
I’m looking forward to Transformers 2. Megan had no real meaty scenes in How to lose friends and alienate people. And in Transformers she was pretty much mute.
Shes also up for the role of Leila in Jonah Hex with Josh Brolin.
She would be a perfect Wonder Woman thought!
she’s just hot.
I agree, she would be a great wonder woman.
I think the idea for her in Transformers was to be more eye candy. Transformers was essentially a visual effects porno. Adding her didn’t hurt things.
I like her a lot though.
Megan Fox doesn’t have to talk.
Super excited for transformers to ome out, i heard the trailer for it was freaking amazing, DEFINITELY seeing the midnight showing of this one!!!!!
TERMINATOR. That is all.
And he absolute will not stop………….until we all go see the movie. I’m with you. This is my personal choice of the year.
I am beyond excited about “The Lovely Bones” and “Sherlock Holmes.” It doesn’t get much better than Ryan Gosling and Rachel Weisz in the same film, and I could say the same of Robert Downey Jr. in, well, anything. On RDJr., I’d go so far as to say all that boozing and partying sharpened him as an actor. He’s been to the bottom, and he knows it well, so he’s become much more mature and instinctual.
