Pirates of the Caribbean: At Worlds End is looking amazing and so much better than the last. It truly has an epic feel and it doesn’t appear to be relying on heavy CGI creature gimmicks. Chow Yun-Fat is bad ass and, of course, Johnny is genius with his delivery of those classic lines. This movie is sure to be pure gold.Matt Damon is back in Bourne Ultimatum and this third film is sure to get your heart pumping. Universal screened a scene that showed Jason Bourne in an incredibly close quarters hand to hand combat with a baddie. I have said it before and I will say it again, Jason Bourne makes James Bond look like a pussy. Too bad Universal has one of the shittiest PR and marketing departments in the industry, need proof? Look at what they did to Children of Men, buried it. 'Nuff said.
Evan Almighty was one of the other Universal films previewed and it looks great. The cool thing about this film is that most, if not all, of the animals in the film are real. According to the director, there has never been this many real animals in any single film.
Chronicles of the Narnia: Prince Caspian is going to bigger than the first and they showed show some very cool pre-viz animation and concept art. I am excited!
The Kingdom is a movie that I think will send shockwaves across the globe, the scenes shown gave an incredibly brutal look at the war against terror. This is one movie that we will all want to see later this year. Maybe one of the most powerful films of ’07, if the movie in its entirety is anything like the film clips that we saw.
Chuck and Larry was previewed and so far it looks god awful, not funny at all, just your typical Adam Sandler comedy. Move on!
What can I say about Shrek 3 that isn't known already? It’s going to be great, it’s going to be awesome and it’s going to make boat loads of money. It's really looking good.
Resident Evil: Extinction looks pretty cool and the Las Vegas shot looks pretty awesome. For the first time ever, I am looking forward to see a film from this franchise.
Disney’s Enchanted is another film that totally surprised me. This time the fairy tale world comes to life in the Big Apple. This movie looks incredibly funny and totally cute (did I say cute?). I am sure that boys and girls of all ages will really enjoy this film.
We also saw Focus Features' Talk to Me starring Don Cheadle, Martin Sheen, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Mike Epps, Cedric The Entertainer and incredibly sexy Taraji P. Henson. This movie, with a little trimming and tightening, could be a very powerful film and maybe even a contender during the awards season.

I'm glad the guy that sounded off on this was a discerning, insightful gentleman instead of some dippy fanboy who takes the obvious dig at the Adam Sandler flick but otherwise slavers love juice over every other movie he saw. Because that would kinda suck.
