Wow...everything sounds just as original and fresh as the shlock that came out last year. What's up with all the "Rivergrove" and "Riverdale" this and that? Not every town exists next to a river! And a serial killer comes to Riverdale...I sure hope Archie and Jughead will be okay!(could care less if Reggie makes it out alive)

20% Fiction...First the voice of K.I.T.T. in the abominable new Knight Rider, and now this. What the hell happened to Val Kilmer's career?

There are some obviouse ones on this list that have been talked about for a while now -- Narnia, T4, and Wolf. Unfortunately, everything else looks like crap, outside of the usual history movies -- Chicago 7 and Patriots. I am holding reserve on Persia until I hear more and see a trailor. It seems like another Mummy movie to me. The one original movie on this list is Moon in my opinion. I actually loved what Hanks did with Castaway. This seems like a movie that is in-line with that one.

In reply to this comment (#1591578)
I thought Kilmer was about as true-to-form cool as he has ever been in "Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (2006)" notwithstanding him playing gay--nothing against homosexuality, just that playing 'gay' is NOT what Kilmer usually does. ..That was a SLICK movie, by the way. Highly recommend.

This 20% movie sounds like a slight retread/spin on the Michael J. Fox "Doc Hollywood" from the early 90's-- jaded Doc gets trapped in hick town, learns *special lessons*. Profoundly original.

Over all, I agree that Kilmer has repeatedly dropped the ball and done sh#t ("Mindhunters," anyone?) but I still like him. "They call him 'Ice Man' because that's how he flies. Ice cold. No Mistakes."

The vast majority of these movies, including the new 'Narnia' blew me away with how amazingly uninteresting they sound.

Hahahaha, I completely forgot about that Land of the Lost movie with Will Ferrell. It still sounds just as ridiculous as it did the first time I read it. 25/8 is the only thing that sounds interesting, I usually like Wes Craven.

the ricky gervais project seems interesting. he did well with his comedy on tv, so i can imagine this being entertaining. most of the other stuff doesn't seem too interesting. maybe the speilberg flick or the new bruce willis. oh and high school musical: senior year.

Come on... Sam Rockwell in his own vehicle! And I mean his own! Stranded on the moon, ala Tom Hanks in Cast Away... or someone else that played Robinson Crusoe...

For one's I haven't heard of before. Moon sounds bad ***. I like Kilmer a lot, and 20% Fiction doesn't sound that bad, I will have faith in it. And Sam Mendes is a god, so anything he does I will look forward to with great hope.
