Hi all, I just posted a blog article on this list that Rope of Silicon put out of their 20 most anticipated films still to come this year, and I figured I'd link to it here and put my own list of 20 down here as well so everyone could see what I'm looking forward to seeing and everyone else could post their own list as well. The blog post is here:http://theoscarigloo.blogspot.com/2009/07/20-films-to-still-look-forward-to-in.html

Here are the 20 I'm looking forward to-

20. tie SAW VI and Halloween 2 (I know, I know)
19. Brooklyn's Finest
18. Youth in Revolt
17. The Time Traveler's Wife
16. Taking Woodstock
15. Zombieland
14. District 9
13. Brothers
12. Jennifer's Body
11. Paper Heart
10. Antichrist
9. Capitalism: A Love Story
8. The Lovely Bones
7. An Education
6. Shutter Island
5. Avatar
4. Inglourious Basterds
3. Where The Wild Things Are
2. (500) Days of Summer (though I'm seeing this very shortly)
1. Funny People (I need to know if it's as good as the script was)

Your turn!

I see that a couple of you are looking forward to 500 Days of Summer. I saw a preview screening a few weeks ago, and it was great. Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon Levitt are amazing and are believable as a couple(happy and not so happy). There were a lot of unique sequences and interesting narative structures. I hope it gets the attention it deserves from movie goers.

As for my most anticipated:

Shutter Island
Funny People
Halloween 2
The Lovely Bones
Avatar
Nine
Sherlock Holmes
and many more

Shanghai, if it does come out as it's supposed to this year...a John Cusack period piece/prestige pic...it's been in development so long, and I've heard so much about it, that it certainly has potential to be special...
