Here's more on each film and a little bit of why I am excited to see them!
1. Star Wars VII- The force is coming back and this time without good ole' saint George! I am excited to see what JJ and the original cast of Episodes 4-6 will do with the universe.
2. Mad Max: Fury Road- The only film (besides Star Wars 7) that has me more excited to see than Avengers: Age of Ultron is Mad Max: Fury Road. Since seeing their trailer this film has me all kinda freaked out and stuff.
8. Midnight Special- Jeff Nichols has really impressed me with his films, "Take Shelter" and "Mud" and now he is working on a sci-fi film. Great! Think Rian Johnson with "Looper", but in this case, we have a lyrical, masterful, actor's director who really gets performances. How can you go wrong?
9. The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2- I have really been enjoying the Hunger Games franchise. They stuck to the story in the books very effectively and they have done it with exceptional quality in the filmmaking as well. And Jennifer Lawrence was still the perfect choice for Katniss. I can't wait to see Panem get their just deserts.
10. Chappie- even though Blomkamp's "Elysium" was far from revolutionary I still enjoy seeing that guy Sharlto do his thing and I am looking forward to his version of a funny robot movie.
11. Warcraft- Remember Duncan Jones of "Moon" fame? You don't? Better get cracking watching those great DVD's from 2009 because that movie still doesn't disappoint. "Source Code" was not a "great DVDS from 2011" but it was still worth a watch, but this... this looks like it could be tons of fun!
12. Jurassic World- Were you around when they brought dinosaurs to life in 1993? I was. Now they're finally gonna do it again with Chris Pratt (lead actor from "Guardians of the Galaxy" and "The Lego Movie") this time!
13. The Good Dinosaur- This looks like a really sweet animated tale that answers the question, "What would it be like if dinosaurs and humans could be friends?" With comedy, et al.
14. The Fantastic Four- I am not especially curious about the Fantastic Four getting rebooted. Look what happened with the Spider Man reboot. Not good. The movies may actually be completely acceptable but fans seem to be uninterested, almost fatigued by it.
However, this film has Josh Trank involved. The young dude who directed "Chronicle" from 2012. Now you have my attention!

15. The Man from U.N.C.L.E.- What's that? You have Henry Cavill, Armie Hammer and Hugh Grant playing American and Russian spies who have to team together to fight a larger enemy? And it's directed by Guy Ritchie? Count me in!
I certainly have a larger list of movies I am looking forward to coming in 2015, but these are my top 15. If you have any movies you can't wait for or you want to tell me how awesome my list is, you can feel free to chime in!
