Take me to the movies!

This year is a good one for film lovers like me, with a whole host of great movies being released. Here and some of the films I can't wait to see in the coming months. (Some of them have been released abroad previously but, since Ireland is the back of beyond.... we sometimes have to wait)

Iron Man 3 and Thor: The Dark World: I'm fully invested in the Avenger!verse (as I shall call it) and I cannot wait to see what happens next. I adore Robert Downey Jr and I think he's slowly becoming Tony Stark.

The Big Wedding:  What a cast. The trailer had me in stitches and it looks like it's going to be a great hit. Plus I have a bit of a soft spot for Ben Barnes. Here he plays the Spanish speaking adopted son of Robert Di Nero. Need I say more? (Actually, I do quite love Amanda Seyfried after her Les Mis stint as Cosette.)

The Great Gatsby: I love, love, love time period dramas and am currently loving the 20s and 30s more and more for their beautiful and elegant fashions. This film's already been influencing the fashion world and I can tell I'm going to love it. I've sadly never read the book but I shall as soon as I've finished my current list of books!

Side Effects: Jude Law, I once again declare my love for thee. Here he stars alongside Rooney Mara, Channing Tatum and Catherine Zeta Jones in a provocative thriller about a new drug's twisted side effects. Seems like an interesting plot.

Cloud Atlas: I started this book today and shall be seeing the film on the 22nd. I cannot wait. The trailers make it look stunning and reviews are raving about the cinematography (even if there is some conflict about the use of race.....) Personally I think it's a thrilling story and the cast is full of hugely talented actors.

Oz: The Great and the Powerful. Any take on the Wizard of Oz story is one for me. I like envisioning things from new angles so it should be interesting to see where the director takes this. Trailers are once again very inciting.

The East: I think the concept for this is one that hasn't really been explored that much in film (well.... in well made, feature film) Freeganism is a concept not many are familiar with and I think that makes the film even more exciting and thrilling to watch. It's really a subject I'd like to learn more about and so will probably read up about soon. Previews are great and I really love how the trailer is edited. It's time for a good  anarchist film!
