Hello everyone! I thought I would start a new little segment that included my love for movies & cinema in general into my blog. I still don't feel I have the skills to do full movie reviews, but I do want to talk about cinema a little bit more, and I thought a segment on my most anticipated movies would be a good idea to do so! So as not to overcharge all of you with information, I will be splitting it into a few articles covering two or three months at a time. And because I've been gone most of January (because it's honestly the shittiest month of the year) I thought my first article would cover all movies until March! Let's start!
Now what you also have to know is that, while I'm trying to stick to the official coming out schedule, some movies actually do come out at different times in Belgium, and some others I still haven't seen.
The Danish Girl
Please don't hit me. I do know this movie has been out for quite a while in other countries, but it recently came out in Belgium, I think about two weeks ago. Unfortunately I've been extremely busy and haven't had the time to go see it, but I do have very high expectations for this movie. Fortunately, so do my mother & sister, which is something that I hope will force me to go watch it in the near future.
The Revenant
Again, official release date is January 8, but we are also late on that one, and I am personally not finding anyone who has yet agreed to go with me. Although the story didn't really interest me at first, it was when I finally watched the trailer that I decided I needed to see this movie. The photography looks wonderful and the atmosphere in the trailer shows how much work was put behind every decision. Again, I'll still wait until I've seen it to say anything more on the subject.
Jane Got A Gun
This one I hadn't heard about before checking out all the 2016 releases. The title intrigued me, but it was the cast that convinced me this movie was worth watching. Other than that, I also do enjoy a little Western from time to time. I can't promise I will go see this one in the theatre since it's not the one I've been waiting for the most, but it's on my "to watch" list!
The Finest Hours
This is not probably something you know since I haven't been blogging for very long, but Chris Pine is my absolute favourite actor, and I try to see all of his movies as quickly as I can. (Yes, I am that obsessed.) Now my next comment might sound a bit weird, but I truly believe he has the right face for intense acting, and if you haven't seen this film's trailer, it is intense!
The 5th Wave
I've definitely asked myself many times if this movie was worth being included on this list. Do I really want to see yet another movie about a teenager desperately trying to survive in a apocalypse setting? This answer is yes, apparently, for more than one reason. First, aliens. I do have a weird fascination for aliens, and they haven't been included in many movies recently. Second: Chloe Moretz. Yes, I do base my movie choices a lot on the cast, but frankly who doesn't? And finally, I was intrigued, since I hadn't heard anything about this movie before making this list, which was a surprising plus.
Deadpool
Here comes the funniest character in the marvel franchise. I honestly have no hope other than having a really good time & coming out of the theatre with an aching tummy because of how much I laughed. Okay, learning more about him would be nice too.
Divergent: Allegiant (part 1)
Ooooh how I hate to add that little "part 1" next to the title. There is truly nothing more I hate than movies split into two parts only to make more money. I've read the books and I was intrigued by the changes made in the movie adaption of the second one, and I am looking forward to knowing more, and seeing more of Shailene's acting.
Queen Of The Desert.
The story is a real one that takes place in the twentieth century. It is described as an adventure through the beautiful but misunderstood people of the Middle East, which a very interesting subject to me. The movie also had the chance of having an amazing trailer that left me wanting more.
That's it for my most anticipated films until March! Not a very exciting list, I know, but many more great things are coming up.
