Did they use Butterfly ballots?

I demand a re-count!

The only ones I will even see are the other two LOTR parts, the new Matrix sequel and the new Indiana Jones.

I have no clue what "Red Dragon" and "Die Another Day"(please not another Die Hard) even are.

There are several I want to see, but TTT and ROTK are the tops on my list.

My son plans to take me to a midnight showing of Men in Black II since it premieres on my birthday. I'd be just as happy to see FOTR again. ;-)

I quit the Star Wars universe after the first new movie. Too predictable and you already know what's going to happen, so why bother? Anakin turns into a bad guy, nuff said. As for the Marvel movies, why o why can't they just make ONE movie that is even close to the storyline? Glen Stacy, hellooo!?!? I'm afraid to see the Fantastic Four when it comes out. Sue Richards might leave Reed for Spiderwoman in the movie version and poor little Franklin, Lord knows what they'd do to him. Can't let the Torch 'flame on', they might give the kiddies some bad ideas(in more than one way if you catch my drift). No, the only Marvel movie worth a dern was Blade and they even came close to messing that up. I can only imagine what they're going to do to Ghost Rider

Ok, rant off about comic book movies. Sorry, just perturbs me. LOTR:TTT isn't even a sequel so it shouldn't really count in this poll but if it has to be counted it should be #1

They overlooked the new Phantasm movie (with Bruce Campbell added to the cast). Certainly interests me much more than another Halloween movie (it's a guy with a knife, and this time he really means to kill you).

Some of these films are sooo far from going into production that it is a joke to have any anticipation for them. If that's the game that we are going to play then I want to see whatever Bond film comes out in 2007, the year of the double-nought agent!

SpiderMan, SpiderMan
Who gives a damn about SpiderMan?
See him swing...No, let's not...
Who are we talking about? I forgot.
Lookout! There goes a crazy man!

Just stumbled across this thread ...

1. STAR WARS EPISODE III
haven't seen I and II, but if Lucas is doing the third, there isn't much hope for it.

2. THE MATRIX RELOADED
First one was OK and was often imitated. Hope it isn't a recycling.

3. SPIDER-MAN 2
Spidey rocked on toast. Loved it. So did my son, who wasn't planning on seeing it.

4. THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE TWO TOWERS
I'm there, baby! Should be numero uno.

5. X-MEN 2
First one was enjoyable. Second one should be good.

6. HARRY POTTER AND THE CHAMBER OF SECRETS
Hope it's better than the first. (Have to get busy reading this before it comes out.)

7. TERMINATOR 3: RISE OF THE MACHINES
Plot was tied up neatly after T2, don't need a T3.

8. AUSTIN POWERS IN GOLDMEMBER
Won tix from radio for sneakpreview. Wasn't worth the price of admission. (And I finally disproved to myself the notion of "the first 10 minutes alone were worth the price of the movie" -- they were funny, but didn't a movie price earn.)

9. STAR TREK: NEMESIS
Is this an even or an odd numbered episode?? Anyway, there aint no way that a TNG movie will rank up there with "The Wrath of Khan" or "The Voyage Home".

10. MEN IN BLACK 2
First was good. Looks okay.

11. DIE ANOTHER DAY
what is this? Another "Die Hard"? If so, they're usually entertaining.

12. INDIANA JONES 4
Could be good, but it could be another "Temple of Doom"

13. THE MATRIX REVOLUTIONS
let's get past the first sequel.

14. HALLOWEEN: RESURRECTION
No more. really, no more.

15. RED DRAGON
It was done once already, by better than Anthony Hopkins.

16. THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE RETURN OF THE KING
Exception to the "let's wait for the next sequel first" rule.

17. HARRY POTTER AND THE PRISONEER OF AZKABAN
"Let's wait for the next sequel first".

18. BATMAN: YEAR ONE
Who's Batman?

19. TRUE LIES 2
never saw the first one.

20. ONCE UPON A TIME IN MEXICO(the third EL MARIACHI movie)
Don't even know what this is.

TS
