A recent survey of U.S. moviegoers ranked which films people are most looking forward to seeing. Listed are the top 2008 films that got the most buzz over the past seven days. Hopefully at least 10% of 'em live up to the hype. Which one interests you the most?

Hype?  What hype?  I haven't seen an ad for a single one of these.

Apparently, I don't watch enough TV.

Haven't heard of most of those, but haven't been on lately looking. The only promo I have seen was for Get Smart with Steve Carrel. I like his humor since he was on the Daily Show with Jon Stewart and I like comedies, but I can't go to movies so I will wait for it on DVD. Indiana Jones would be a tie for me with Get Smart, but hey, get them both at the Video store when they come out, only takes about four months now from release :lol;

The Batman movie "Dark Night" could be good, I think.

There's a great little interview tidbit with Michael Caine above, where he talks some about having seen all the movies, and how he thinks Christian Bale is far and away the best Batman.

But then he also talks about Heath Ledger as the Joker, and says that he will steal THE DARK KNIGHT, and that he's so scary he made him forget his lines the first scene he worked with him! Funny!

Read it here --> http://shareddarkness.com/2007/10/10/caine-on-batman.aspx

Cast: Christian Bale (Bruce Wayne, AKA Batman), Heath Ledger (The Joker), Michael Caine (Alfred Pennyworth), Aaron Eckhart (Harvey Dent), Morgan Freeman (Lucius Fox), Maggie Gyllenhaal (Rachel Dawes), Gary Oldman (Jim Gordon)

I actually want to see just about everyone of these movies, but Get Smart has move vote simply because I want to see if they royal screw it up like so many of the other TV remakes that have been done lately.  I grew up loving the original Get Smart TV series and subsequent made for TV movies.  If they completely change it I will be very sad. Please don't let them mess it up, please don't let them mess it up, please......

None of them really. I did pick Indiana Jones tho just because there wasn't a 'None' choice and the original ones were okay.

When I was in college in one of our film classes we have to come up with a marketing campaign for a film of our choice.  I chose Speed Racer and cast Johnny Depp as Speed (this was when he was 15 years younger) and Winona Ryder as Trixie.  My first student film had to be filmed to an existing song, so I picked Speed Racer.  I went to a golf course, put my roommate into a golf cart and turned him into Speed Racer.

So I guess you could say I've been waiting for this production for 20 years.  I hope to goodness they get it right.

Go Speed Racer Go!
