I did not know about this. A fun original. A sequel is not needed. Lame.

> April 29 - The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

Nothing I've seen on this gives me much hope, either.

> May 6 - Kingdom of Heaven

Does Orlando Bloom act in anything other than epics?

I have a feeling this won't do well at the B.O. but it will probably be pretty good.

> May 19 - Star Wars III: Revenge of the Sith

Why did Lucas have to compare it to Titanic???

This movie's stock actually went up for me after seeing the original recently.

> May 27 - Madagascar

Ever since Pocahontas came out, I haven't enjoyed any of the Disney movies that I've seen. I may have missed some decent ones but I don't think I laughed once in New Groove. A co-worker quotes it constantly, though.

> June 17 - The Perfect Man

> Hilary Duff and Heather Locklear star in...

My wife will want to see this and then she'll wonder why she wasted her time.

> June 17 - Batman Begins

It will be hard for this to be worse than any of the others.

I'm tired of unoriginal "remakes" and I'm tired of Nicole Kidman.

> July 8 - Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

Why, Tim, why? The original is so perfect in so many ways. Well, except for "Cheer up, Charlie."

> July 20 - Kronk's New Groove

See Above re: Disney

> July 22 - The Island

Michael Bay has not made a single movie worth my time or money.

> July 22 - The Bad News Bears

Again, I ask "Why???"

> July 29 - The Brothers Grimm

Even Gilliam's bad movies are fun to watch.


> August 5 - 3001

See "Futurama"

> August 5 - The Dukes of Hazzard

ARGGGHHHHHH

Watch the originals. And anything else with Sellers.

> August 19 - Romance & Cigarettes

> August is also that place where intriguing little quirky things live. It's a "savage" musical, described as a cross between Pennies From Heaven and The Honeymooners. It is directed by none other than John Turturro, and get a load of the cast: James Gandolfini, Susan Sarandon, Kate Winslet, Steve Buscemi, Christopher Walken, Mandy Moore, and Eddie Izzard. Is that not the strangest casting cataclysm, or what?

What's not to like about that cast? Wow.
