Well, I'm still looking forward to Spiderman more than any of the above (Opens TOMORROW, due to Brunnen_G's demons).
Heh. Time Magazine (Which we got TODAY, without demons)suggests to still watch out for SWII, because every SW film so far has been the highest grossing of it's year... or something... We'll see. But of theones in the list. Scooby-Doo, because that was my favourite cartoon when I was a tyke.
