Pop-Ed: Top 10 Most Anticipated Movies of 2016

Quick Honorable Mentions:

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows (June 3rd): I stupidly had expectations for the first film, and on second viewing, it’s actually not half bad.  If they can just get the villains right, this might be a good Turtles movie.  And even though the animation looks horrible, it was quite a thrill to finally see live action Bebop and Rocksteady.  I’m going in tempered this time.

Untitled Jason Bourne 5 (July 29th): I didn’t even bother with Bourne Legacy, and it seems like no one else did either.  I’ll make this quick – Matt Damon is back.  I’m curious.

Gambit (October 7th): I wish I could put this in my top ten, but I’m a little queasy.  This will be Fox’s third X-Men movie in 2016.  Are they stretching themselves too thin?  Its also had some director issues.  While Channing Tatum is a great choice, and Gambit has been criminally underused in the X-Men franchise, I need to see more.

Jack Reacher: Never Go Back (October 21st): The first Jack Reacher movie is ridiculously underrated.  It’s Tom Cruise in all his glory.  I’m glad this character is getting a second go around.

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (November 18th): I’m a Harry Potter guy, and certainly support the idea of J.K. Rowling giving us another character in the world to follow.  I just wish it wasn’t this one.  A guy who tries to catch monsters?  Eh.  The first teaser didn’t do anything to get my excitement going.  It’s still early, but I need to see a lot more.
