My gosh that is a ton of movies! A few people were talking about iron man in another thread. Also oblivion. So far I haven't heard any complaints
 
Enders game, ive been waiting for years for them to decide to make the books into a movie, theyre releasing the first trailer tuesday on youtube
 
I saw Iron Man 3. It was a whole different vibe compared to the 1st two. The whole Black Sabbath/AC/DC type music was completely gone. I missed that. Lol. I also wished that the 'Mandarin' was accurate to the comics though. Although, I think it's a good start of 'Phase 2'. I can't wait for Thor 2!

i never read the comics, but definitely picked up on the darker vibe, it was good but i didnt leave the theater going holy crap everyone needs to see this movie like i did for avengers

also the traditional marvel end scene was disappointing that it didnt lead into the next film

Yeah, Iron Man 3 wasn't as exciting as the previous Marvel movies. The ending was also pretty bland to me. I think Jon Favreau should have directed it to give it the same feel as the 1st two Iron Man movies.

Yeah, I saw the basic trailer announcing the 5/7 official trailer, looks like a good movie.
 
I don't think that trailer is real. lol. I just checked imdb and it says that Jurassic Park IV will be out in 2014 and the cast isn't added yet.

Yeah, there has been many trailers made about this. Some even shows scenes from the originals. :D Haven't heard anything else about this year, so probably will be next. Better have A LOT of freakin Dinosaurs!!!

Talk of Avengers 2 for 2014, correct?
 
I actually can't wait to see Kick *** 2. The first one was better than I could have imagined and Hit Girl stole the show. No more Nicholas Cage but now Jim Carrey is getting into the fun.

Based on the poster, and other stuff ive seen they have changed a lot from the book. Some of it is details that just make it a more interesting movie visually, like changing the battle room from the plain blank walled cube to the clear sphere at the heart of the station in the poster. Other aspects im not sure how theyre going to incorporate, one major character is now a woman, another character is covered in face tattoos, the school armies look like theyre 8-10 kids instead of 40.

the book was also graphically violent, you get Ender's mental narrative as he plans how to physically retaliate against a bully and ends up killing the kid on at least 2 occasions, something tells me the movie isnt going to include Ender's multiple homicides

I guess I should assume ironman 4 will be made, and this was not a trilogy? (I have not seen the movie)

the end credits did say Tony Stark will return, did not indicate if this would be Iron Man 4 or Avengers 2, or appearances in Thor or Captain America

I think Marvel is messing with us when it comes to the Mandarin and not everything was as it appeared.
