Anyway, daydreaming is one of my favorite activities, so I will continue with my own list of films I want to see in 2013, grouped in two categories: Red and Orange, Red containing the ones I want to watch the most, and Orange having the interesting, but not vital ones. Plus, a special uncertain category. Check it out!
RED- Must See
12 years a slave- have you seen the cast list yet? plus, it is directed by Steve McQueen, one of my favorite directors out there, and Taran Killam is in it :D
Before Midnight- third part of the epic series? Ethan Hawke and Julie Delphy talking about life and love for 1h and 30 min. Yes please!
The Great Gatsby- I love Baz Luhrman's films and style of directing, so I am excited to see this classic brought to the big screen by him, together with an amazing cast
Mortal Instruments: City of Bones- Ok, so sue me, I like YA books and this one, actually the whole series, is one of my favorites. The trailer looks actually pretty good, they did everything right, it seems. Also, bonus to have Robert Sheenan as the loveable Simon.
Inside Llewyn Davis- a Coen Brothers film starring Garrett Hedlund and John Goodman-enough said
Stoker- written by Wentworth Miller, starring Nicole Kidman, Mia Wasikowska and Matthew Goode, 3 of my favorite actors
The place beyond the pines- amazing trailer and performances by Gosling, Cooper and Mendez
ORANGE- interesting
Two Mothers- two fantastic actresses (Robin Wright and Naomi Watts) in an intriguing story: two older women fall in love with each other's sons
Man of Steel- Henry Cavill in a tight suit, looking dashing and serious- I am there, premiere day
Only God Forgives- Nicholas Winding Refn and Ryan Gosling- I am in!
ORANGE- interesting
Two Mothers- two fantastic actresses (Robin Wright and Naomi Watts) in an intriguing story: two older women fall in love with each other's sons
Man of Steel- Henry Cavill in a tight suit, looking dashing and serious- I am there, premiere day
Only God Forgives- Nicholas Winding Refn and Ryan Gosling- I am in!
The Bling Ring- although Sofia Coppola is a hit and miss queen in my eyes, I am very curious about this one, I like the idea, plus Emma Watson
The Wolf of Wall Street- considering it is a Scorsese film starring Leonardo DiCaprio, I expect a lot of buzz around it and I admit I am curious, too
The Zero Theorem- a Terry Gilliam shot in Romania is definitely a point of interest to me, so I want to see it. Plus, it has an interesting script idea
Fast and furious 6- I have a strong emotional connection to it, so I will definitely try to catch it in cinemas
Iron Man 3- this one looks much more darker than the first two...interesting
Star Trek into darkness- Benedict Cumberbatch :o
Star Trek into darkness- Benedict Cumberbatch :o
Hunger Games: Catching Fire- the first one really surprised me, so I want to see this one, too, although I am not very fond of their choice of Finnick
The World's end- I love the cast and it looks funny, but it is a third movie and I still haven't seen the first two, so...it will have to wait
The Counselor- Michael Fassbender...yes!
What about you? What are your most anticipated?
There isn't any connection in the Three Cornetto Flavours trilogy. But seriously, watch Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz. You can thank me later.
ReplyDelete:) I plan to, they are on my list! Thanks!
DeleteDefinitely agree with The Place Beyond the Pines. Looks excellent. I would also add Gangster Squad, Oblivion, Flight, Oz: The Great and Powerful and World War Z!
ReplyDeleteHere are mine now I've given it some real thought!

I'm seeing Flight soon, and I think of it as a 2012 release, that's why it's not on my list. Thanks for the link, I will check it out soon!
DeleteI don't know much about 2013 releases, but I'm definitely looking forward to anything Steve McQueen does in the future, and Before Midnight. I'm not sure about the Great Gatsby - being a favorite book of mine, I'm always a bit hesitant to see adaptations of it, but also because unlike you I'm not the biggest Baz Luhrman fan, and Gatsby is looking a little too glitterish. Still, it has an incredible cast, so I hope I'm wrong.
ReplyDeleteThe Place Beyond the Pines should be amazing, and I'll be looking forward to Man of Steel (looks epic and far superior than the previous) and Star Trek, too!
It is a little bit glitterish, but I like this style, it's entertaining. For me, it worked more in Romeo and Juliet, than in Moulin Rouge, but that's just me.
DeleteAt least they didn't choose Robert Pattinson for Catching Fire! - Not that I don't like him, but he's not suited for the role... I haven't seen any of Sam Claflin's films, but he does look like a reasonable choice for the part.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I'm excited for 12 Years a Slave, The Place Beyond the Pines, The Great Gatsby... all the biggies :).
And I might have to catch up on the "Before"-series.
You haven't seen the Before series? please do, they are amazing, you'll love it.
DeleteI was thinking of a more mature guy for Finnick, like Garrett Hedlund or Armie Hammer, but I guess I'll get used to Sam Claffin, too!
Another reason to be excited for Stoker is that it is directed by Chan-Wook Park! :) I'm quite looking forward to several of the films you mentioned, plus a few others...
ReplyDeleteYeah, I've been hearing a lot of great things about him. I can't wait to see it!
DeleteSo many great movies to look forward too! I can't wait for Twelve Years a Slave and Wolf of Wall street. Can't say I'm very excited about the great Gatsby, but I like Leo so I'll see it eventually :)
ReplyDeleteLeo, and Joel Edgerton, and the lovely Carey Mulligan...yup, I want to see it :)
DeleteLars von Trier's Nymphomaniac, Nicolas Winding Refn's Only God Forgives, and plenty more. Just check out my two-part list.
ReplyDeleteOh, that's a great list, I love it, very detailed! Great job!
DeleteI want to see every film you mentioned, but I'm especially looking forward to Before Midnight, Nightingale, Only God Forgives, Sin City: A Dame to Kill For (Clive Owen is back!), and The Wolf of Wall Street.
ReplyDeleteClive Owen is one of my favorites, and I hope he gets back on track soon. Only God Forgives should be interesting, too!
DeleteGreat picks! Twelve Years a Slave... god, I cannot wait for that one. And Before Midnight, it'll be so great to see where they are now.
ReplyDeleteYes, I am curious about Before Midnight, too. I can't wait to buy the trilogy on DVD when it comes out :D
DeleteNice that you have 'em color-coded based on interest level. We have a lot in common here, though I definitely put Man of Steel under RED as that's my most-anticipated of the year.
ReplyDeleteI really like it, too, and I am dying to see Cavill on the big screen, but considering it's just for him, I put it under orange!
DeleteMonumentally excited about BEFORE MIDNIGHT.
ReplyDeleteMe, too. I wonder when it will come out in cinemas!
