List of Movies to Follow (Tentative)

So another part of "The Movie Experiment" is, as I've mentioned plenty of times, picking a single movie to follow from start to finish. And I believe I have (finally) a list of contenders. Here they are:

The Tourist: plot unknown (at least to me, I'm sure it's on imdb.com or something), starring Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp

I Am Number Four: Aliens and sci-fi and Alex Pettyfer and Timothy Olyphant. Sounds promising, maybe?

Just Go With It: An all-star cast (Adam Sandler, Nicole Kidman, Jennifer Aniston) with some iffys (Brooklyn Decker? Heidi Montag?) set in Hawaii. To be released in February of 2011.

Thor: More high-profile and bigger budget than the others. I know absolutely nothing about Thor's history, but do know it will probably be a long process.

Hanna: Directed by one of my favorites, Joe Wright, and in a territory completely new to him: action! His young Atonement actress, Saoirse Ronan, plays the titular character, a born-and-bred killing machine for the C.I.A.

Of these five, two have pictures of on-set shooting (The Tourist and Just Go With It). Hanna has just started shooting, Thor I think is in pre-production, and I Am Number Four is still finishing up casting choices (Timothy Olyphant just replaced Sharlto Copley, by the way).

If anyone has any comments or ideas for another movie, feel free to write! To be honest, I am already leaning on The Tourist (just because I think it's going to be big, a-la Wanted-marketing big). Here is a link to some pictures of Jolie and Depp shooting in Venice:


By the way, here are some headlines I found interesting this week:
Affleck Says Joaquin Movie Is Not A Joke
Casey Affleck Is Serious About That Joaquin Phoenix Rap Doc
Joaquin Phoenix docu "packed with scenes of sex, drugs, and nudity"

I think this whole thing is crazy. But regardless, at least Joaquin Phoenix is still alive. Who cares if he begged Diddy to help get him a music-recording contract?? I don't!!

Have a good week, everyone!
