Looks like quite a loaded month! Some big sequels/franchises, a couple of horrors for people that way inclined and a couple of movies touted as having the potential to pick up Oscar wins next year.

 

Blade Runner 2049: sequel to 80s cult movie 'Blade Runner' (Harrison Ford, Ryan Gosling)

The Glass Castle: based on the memoir of Jeannette Walls (Brie Larson, Woody Harrelson, Naomi Watts)

The Mountain Between Us: disaster/survival movie about two people stranded in a snowy wilderness (Kate Winslet, Idris Elba)

The Lego Ninjago Movie: third movie in the Lego franchise (Dave Franco, Jackie Chan)

The Ritual: things don't go well when a group of friends go hiking in Sweden (Rafe Spall)

The Snowman: detective investigating the disappearance of a victim and fearing a serial killer nicknamed 'The Snowman' is active (Michael Fassbender, Rebecca Ferguson)

Geostorm: disaster movie where climate-controlling satellites malfunction (Gerard Butler)

Happy Death Day: slasher movie with a woman re-living her birthday (and death) over and over

My Little Pony: an Iz wet dream based on the toy and TV franchise (Emily Blunt, Kristin Chenoweth, Sia)

Jigsaw: next installment in the Saw horror franchise

Breathe: biographical drama about a man who becomes paralyzed from the neck down and is given three months to live (Andrew Garfield, Claire Foy)

Call Me By Your Name: coming of age LGBT drama (Armie Hammer, Timothée Chalamet)

Thor: Ragnarok: the next superhero/Marvel release, the third to focus on the character of Thor (Chris Hemsworth, Tom Hiddleston, Cate Blanchett + a few other names)

I shall comment properly later, but I voted Thor (by farrrrrr) :wub:

Happy Death Day very closely followed by Jigsaw.

I'm most hyped about/planning to go see:

01. The Snowman

02. Geostorm

03. Thor: Ragnarok

04. Blade Runner 2049

05. Happy Death Day

06. Jigsaw

 

Overall a very exciting movie month!

Gone for Thor because from the trailers so far, I think it has the potential to be my favourite movie of the entire year and I'm just ridiculously hyped for it at the moment.

 

I am also VERY excited for Call Me By Your Name (after reading the book which was just so romantic and magical, can't wait to see the film adaptation) and Breathe too which looks like the sort of awards bait that I usually love.

 

I'll probably also catch Blade Runner, The Glass Castle, The Mountain Between Us, Lego Ninjago, The Snowman, Geostorm (and My Little Pony tbh) if possible but not so excited for those really.

Blade Runner followed by Thor. I'll give Geostorm and Jigsaw a watch as well.

Either The Snowman or Jigsaw

I've gone for Lego Ninjago, loved the previous two Lego movies and the trailer for this one looks just as promising, but Call Me By Your Name and Breathe are very close behind.

 

Also have interest in seeing My Little Pony and potentially Thor...not seen the previous Thor movies and my thoughts on Marvel are known to be mixed, but the trailer looked rather fun.

Definitely The Ritual, I generally like that sort of cross comedy-horror and I think it'll do it better than It, for example.

 

Snowman looks a bit meh, Geostorm could be a shout. Not planning on seeing any of the others.

 

The other that should be up my street is Jigsaw but it could end up falling a bit flat so that's why I wouldn't say it's "hyped" for me so much.

Definitely won't see in cinemas:

13) Jigsaw - it's an 18 & I've never seen any of the other Saw films

12) My Little Pony - no.

11) The Ritual - no.

 

Might see:

10) Geostorm - it looks utterly horrendous but its the kind of thing my dad will probs wanna see so i'd tag along :lol:

9) The Lego Ninjago Movie: No interest at all, would only see if family wanted to see it

 

Interested:

8) Happy Death Day

7) The Glass Castle

 

Will probs see in cinemas:

6) The Mountain Between Us

5) Thor: Ragnarok

4) Call Me By Your Name

3) Breathe

2) The Snowman

1) Blade Runner 2049 - looks so good and I love the cast + the reviews are really promising!

 

ngl this month kinda seems a bit weak :(

The Snowman with Jigsaw a close second!

Definitely The Ritual, I generally like that sort of cross comedy-horror and I think it'll do it better than It, for example.

I've watched it already as part of Odeon's Scream Unseen and it is very good! It has been marketed poorly though, it's much more of a horror than a comedy, it only has the jokes shown in the trailer I'd say.

 

Very good horror though, really gripping!

Ah that's encouraging to hear! I did wonder if the trailer (which I have seen seemingly a billion times now) didn't do the whole thing much justice especially with those throwaway remarks plastered all over it. Very eager to see it next week finally.
