Continuing what has become a tradition here on TMP, today and tomorrow I’m going to be sharing lists of the releases I’m… probably going to end up watching in theaters this year!
“Anticipating” may be a misleading word to title these posts with, because not every film will be something that I’m necessarily looking forward to watching. But these are the films I’ll end up seeing either out of my own interest in them, or by tagging along with someone else (because I can never turn down a trip to the theater, no matter how bad the movie is).
Sidenote: Can you believe this is the third year I’ve made an “anticipating” list?
On to the movies! (Release dates are based on the movieinsider.com tentative schedule and are subject to change)
