Let's face it. Star Wars is one of the best things to ever happen in film. To our misfortune, George Lucas decided to screw things around and made what could’ve and should’ve been awesome. A film commonly called “The Phantom Menace”. I like to call it “The Farting Menace”. Here in this video this crazy guy decides to vent all our frustrations and rant on this terrible film that I personally pretend doesn’t exist.

My Top Ten Most Anticipated Films of 2014
My Top Ten Most Anticipated Films of 2014
Well 2013 has been a year
that I think most people were half disappointed by. With most of the summer
blockbuster type movies (the most anticipated ones) haven’t hit the mark we
would hope for the award season movies have quite been awesome. Looking at the lineup coming this year 2014
looks to be hopefully quite the year. Maybe these will make up for the
disappointments of the last year! Here are my top 10 most anticipated films of
2014.
10. The Amazing Spiderman 2
Why I’m excited: The story,
I’m attached to the characters, the Spiderman lore is being further developed
and looks super interesting.
What turns me off: The number
of story elements and villians might bog it down and make it cheesy and
unsatisfying *cough *cough Spiderman 3
9. Dumb and Dumber To
Why I’m excited: Jim Carrey, and
Jeff Daniels back as one of the best comedy duos ever!
What turns me off: The
producing and directing team behind this have been making pretty disappointing
stuff lately. On top of that comedy genre can be a very dry genre of film.
8. Captain America: The Winter Soldier
Why I’m excited: It’s Captain
America, and the winter soldier storyline is amazing!
What turns me off: The
possibility of it following the Iron Man 3 route and completely butchering a
great story.
7. The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1
Why I’m excited: The same
Director of Catching Fire, which was pretty amazing, the book is amazing, and
the stakes are epicly higher than ever.
What turns me off: The
possibility of the tone from the books to be changed like they did first one.
6. Dawn of the Planet of the Apes
Why I’m excited: Rise of the
Planet of the Apes was a surprisingly really great film and what Andy Serkis
does to the character of Caesar is awesome. The trailer was pretty stinkin epic
too.
What turns me off: The
possibility of it sucking (that’s about it)
5. Godzilla
Why I’m excited: It’s
Godzilla! Not to mention it stars Heisenberg himself, Bryan Cranston, who is
one of the most talented actors working today.
What turns me off: Godzilla
can be a very difficult to do and going the Transformers route would be a
really bad possibility.
4. Guardians of the Galaxy
Why I’m excited: It’s a comic
book story in which I have no knowledge on and from what I’ve heard about
footage and the characters, this might just be (if done well) like Marvel’s
Star Wars. Basically an epic space movie like we’ve never seen before
What turns me off: If they
get it wrong this can be a stupid disaster of a film. And this looks like a
very hard adaption to make.
3. The Hobbit: There and Back Again
Why I’m excited: It’s a
middle earth movie and I have personally loved the previous two Hobbit films.
Also, it’ll be interesting to see how they tie it in to The Lord of the Rings
trilogy. I am pretty convinced the worst case scenario is that it’ll only be
decent.
What turns me off: If it is
anything short of epic!
2. Interstellar
Why I’m excited: Christopher
Nolan! He is a boss at making a very fictional story have a really realistic
and relatable feel. Combine a space sci-fi centered story to Nolan’s realism and
Matthew McConaughey this has the potential to be one of the greatest films of all time.
What turns me off: Nothing
really. But if this isn’t good I don’t know what kind of madness the world
would turn too. In Nolan we trust!
1. X-Men: Days of Future Past
Why I’m excited: Bryan Singer is directing? Both the present days and past mutants good and evil will have to team up through time travel? Wait the storyline is time travel centric? Basically every mutant from the X Men films are in this ambitious Comic book film? What is there not to get your nerd level pumped to the max!?!
What turns me off: Nothing.
But if this ends up being anything short perfect I might not be able to
function.
