Continued from part one, commenting on the films I’m most looking forward to.

I Am Legend (14/12/07)

The third attempt at a film adaptation of the classic horror novel. Will Smith already butchered sci-fi masterpiece I, Robot, but will he make it two in a row? The teaser trailer suggests a film that takes liberty with the events of the book, but that may be no bad thing. The premise holds up, how will the execution?

Iron Man (02/05/07)

Firmly in the camp that believes Jon Favreau’s take on Daredevil was hugely underrated, I’m hopeful that Iron Man will deliver him the credit he deserves. Robert Downey Jr. was born to play Tony Stark, and provided they can sort out the villain of the piece, it should be a hit.

I’m not a fan of all this new-fangled viral marketing, nor was I keen on the Abrams-helmed Mission Impossible III, but I can’t say no to a good old monster movie, especially if this one is as innovative as people believe it will be. We’ll see.

10,000 B.C. (07/03/08)

Creationist undertones aside, it’s great to see a Roland Emmerich blockbuster. Godzilla may have been misguided, and The Day After Tomorrow was utter dross, but in Independence Day, they crafted one of the most arresting blockbusters of recent times. Here’s hoping for a return to form.

More soon!
