Upcoming Promising Movies in 2015

In this second part, let's briefly overseer the upcoming promising movies which cinema now as far as we can generally see has to offer:

Spectre

James Bond's twenty-fourth's assignment will apparently be about the reboot of the sinister organisation Spectre, led by his most famous antagonist, Ernst Stavro Blofeld. Whether he, or other members such as Emilio Largo and Rosa Klebb will return remains to be seen, and who knows if Quantum or other 00 agents will make another appearance? In any case, consider me excited, because the number 1 reason I really like James Bond is because of the villains in their spotlights.

Terminator Genisys

Insert "I'm back" quote here.  As far as canonity goes, I''m not really sure, but it seems we are dealing with a remake or retelling of the original The Terminator(1984) and Terminator 2: Judgment Day(1991) rolled into one new movie here, because the plot summary indicates that Kyle Reese, Sarah Connor and an aging terminator will have to stop judgment day again. Or this is just a new timeline, a reimagination of some sorts. It's crazy to see Arnold returning in the flesh instead of CGI, but I am most of all excited for the return of a T-1000 model!

The Avengers: Age of Ultron

They really had a clever thing going on with all those standalone Marvel movies and their post credits scenes, hinting that in the nearby future, the superheroes would form and team together in The Avengers(2012), a successful movie on many fronts, but most of all because the synergy of their teamwork was great, and the humor was very effective. Age of Ultron will most likely promise a more challenging supervillain, where as Loki simply was outnumbered. Let the age of critical acclaimed comic movie adaptations please continue.

It Follows

Nowadays, on a yearly basis, the horror genre always seems to have atleast one prominent title coming up, whether it's a sequel or an original. This time, It Follows is most likely carrying the cape of frights, as it seems that it will deliver a new spin of creative modern horror. The main premise is about sexually transmitted haunting, something I have never heard about before. Seeing as it has delivered in an unique and scary fashion at film festivals, I am looking forward to this, but then again I am cautiously and skeptically optimistic, because you can never be too sure how effective horror movies can be individually.

Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens

It's almost impossible to think that they would do another episode after the so conclusive episode of Return of the Jedi(1983), but it's really happening again. With a new director and owner overseering the global beloved Star Wars franchise, this new trilogy can either break or mold it forever considering the past receptions. I have no idea how the story will continue, but I can atleast be sure that the choreography will be outstanding, what with the main action stars of The Raid movies being present.

Jurassic World

Such a long time since we have seen a mainstream blockbuster about dinosaurs, don't ya think? Jurassic World is looking pretty good, with Chris Pratt of Guardians of the Galaxy(2014) fame leading the cast into a dinosaur themed theme park which is bound to go wrong and backfire, as they always do, in this series. I am expecting to get pretty entertained, but I am not expecting a masterpiece by any means.

In fact, that goes for all of the movies on this list, because I am obviously aware that these are pretty much all of them mainstream titles. And the best movies of each year are usually those who are the least expected to get critical and commercial acclaim, so of course I will be scouting those out too.
