New Movies in 2011

As of this post there were 5,959 movies listed to be released in 2011. I would assume that is worldwide including all of the Bollywood movies in India for which there are many more made than in Hollywood.

Below is a list of the 2011 movies I (1) definitely want to see (2) maybe want to see (3) definitely don't want to see. I only looked through the first 500 on that list on imdb.com to get ideas for this list.


Science Fiction

• Cowboys & Aliens- very cool concept. High technology in the wild wild west.
  
• Iron Sky - In 1945, the Nazis went to the moon. In 2018 they are coming back.
• Battle: Los Angeles - Reminds me of Skyline which I also enjoyed and crave for a sequel
  
• The Darkest Hour - In Russia, a group of kids struggle to survive after an alien invasion. Yet another alien invasion movie.
  
• Source Code - very cool idea about reliving the past in some kind of virtual reality
  
• Real Steel - Battlebots made huge
  
• Area 51 - some kids happen upon Area 51
  
• Super 8 - SciFi written and Directed by JJ Abrams
• Contagion - some kind of virus break-out movie
  
• The Killing Game - A man is forced into the savage world of a modern gladiatorial arena, where men fight to the death for the entertainment of the online masses.
  
• The Host - One soul, the Wanderer, is fused with a dying human named Melanie Stryder, in an attempt to locate the last pocket of surviving humans on Earth.
  
• The Divide - To survive the end of the world you must first survive each other.
  
• Now - In the not-too-distant future the aging gene has been switched off. To avoid overpopulation, time has become the currency and the way people pay for luxuries and necessities
• The Adjustment Bureau - follow "the plan" or the adjustment bureau will have you "adjusted"
• Pride and Prejudice and Zombies - based on the book. I love zombie movies and this will be the first 19th century zombie movie I'll have seen.
  

Comedy

• The Dilemma - A man discovers that his best friend's wife is having an affair. Vince Vaughn is always funny in my book.
  
• Take Me Home Tonight - Follow an aimless college grad who pursues his dream girl at a wild Labor Day weekend party. He, his twin sister and their best friend struggle with their burgeoning adulthood over the course of the night.
  
• Jack and Jill - there are like 30 movies with this title. This one stars Adam Sandler so it's probably funny.
  
• Wanderlust - An urban couple branch out to live a more counter-culture lifestyle. Stars Jennifer Anniston.
  
• LOL - In a world connected by YouTube, iTunes, and Facebook, Lola and her friends navigate the peer pressures of high school romance and friendship while dodging their sometimes overbearing and confused parents.
• Just Go with It - Jennifer Aniston and Adam Sandler yet again.
• Paul - Two British comic-book geeks traveling across the U.S. encounter an alien outside Area 51.

Drama, Action, Mystery and/or Thrillers

• On the Road - A young man sets out to travel the roads and railways of America. Sounds interesting.
  
• Inferno: A Linda Lovelace Story - The story of the adult movie Deep Throat
  
• Wrecked - Yet another movie which feels like the TV show "I Should Not Be Alive"
  
• K-11 - Kristin Stewart stars. That's good enough for me.
• Restless - The story of a terminally ill teenage girl who falls for a boy who likes to attend funerals and their encounters with the ghost of a Japanese kamikaze pilot from WWII. There are a lot of movies with this title.
  
• How I Spent My Summer Vacation - Mel Gibson
• The Ledge - something about fundamentalist Christians and an atheist escalates into a lethal battle of wills.
• The Impossible
• Waco - based on the real incident in Waco Texas
  
• Ten - Starring Bruce Willis
• The Grandmasters - The story of the martial-arts master who trained Bruce Lee.
  
• Shadows from the Sky - What if... the pilot about to land your plane has become incapacitated, but you don't know about it. Worse still, neither does he.
  
• Number 13 - On the set of his latest production, Alfred Hitchcock is ensnared in a love triangle and murder mystery that echoes the themes of his work.
• The Beaver - No, it's not based the TV show from the 50s called Leave it to Beaver. It's yet another Mel Gibson movie, this time directed by Jodie Foster.
  
• Apollo 18 - A film about the real mission to space in the 1970's that was canceled by NASA.
  
• Sucker Punch - Forget the plot. Go see it for the amazing CG effects!
  
• Friends with Benefits - The relationship between two friends gets complicated when they decide to get romantic. Same plot as No Strings Attached? Stars Justin Timberlake, Mila Kunis, Emma Stone and Woody Harrelson.
  
• No Strings Attached - there are a lot of movies with this title. Natalie Portman and Ashton Kutcher. Same plot as Friends with Benefits? Movies seem to come in pairs sometimes.
  

Sequels

Reboots- I liked the originals so I'll probably see the remakes

• Footloose
  
• Red Dawn
• Ghost in the Shell
• Battle Royale
• Rise of the Apes
  

CG Animation Movies

• The Wolverine - I'm into the X-Men movies and all of the spin-offs
  
• Green Lantern - Not a big fan of the Green Lantern movie. I don't know how that title has stayed around for so long. As a kid, I thought Green Lantern was stupid. I can't believe the huge universe they've built up behind the Green Lantern.
  
• The Green Hornet - Seth Green is hilarious. Looks good.
  
• Captain America: The First Avenger - it will be interesting to see how the Avengers will pull together all of the various Marvel Comics franchises into one.
  
• Luke Cage - I wasn't a big fan of the Luke Cage comic book but I'll go see it anyway.
  
• Thor - I'm not a big fan of Thor but I'll go see it anyway.
  
• The Man with the Iron Fist - I'm assuming this is based on the Marvel comic Iron Fist
• Limitless - A copywriter discovers a top-secret drug which bestows him with super human abilities.

Movies I might see

• Wild Hogs 2: Bachelor Ride - linked part 1
• Death Note - saw a bit of the anime. Looked interesting.
• The Crow - a reboot?
• Vivid - maybe too creepy for me. A serial killer places his consciousness into the bodies of various individuals in order to experience what it is like to live and die as another person.
• Them - a remake? One woman's journey to unmask the secret rulers of the world.
