Burning Questions of 2013

[Mrs. Sawyer]

I think this thread would be nice. The questions do not have to necessarily be answered, but I think these are key questions that need to be asked during the year. Here are my burning questions in no order. Don't feel the need to answer questions, I think of most of these as hypothetical. Post questions too, guys and we'lll keep track of these throughout the year.

1. How will the success of The Avengers affect Iron Man 3 and Thor?
2. With a mega budget and middling interest, how much will The Lone Ranger Bomb?
3. Will Pacific Rim be a crossover hit?
4. What will be the big breakout comedy this year? (If there will be one)
5. Will The Wolverine help continue Fox's X-men comeback?
6. Who will direct Star Wars Episode VII?
7. Which of the sequels will be the most successful?
8. Will Man of Steel be the first mega blockbuster for Superman in over 30 yeas?
9. Will Gravity, Ender's Game, Elysium, and Oblivion help continue to increase interest in hard sci-fi?
10. Will Star Trek: Into Darkness continue to build on the success of the 2009 hit?
11. Will World War Z be successful?
12. Spike Lee's Oldboy (Too many questions to post one)?
13. What movies will get delayed to 2014?
14. Will more movies and studios pull out of Comic-Con?
15. With the potential failure of the Last Stand, how will other 80s stars like Bruce Willis and Sylvester Stallone fare this year?
16. Will Oz the Great and Powerful make Alice in Wonderland-type numbers?
17. Will the several times delayed 47 Ronin be a success?
18. As Michael Bay's first non-Transformers movies in years, will Pain and Gain be a critical and financial success?
19. Will we hear more about Interstellar this year?
20. With a crowded May, what movies will survive the month?
21. WHERE THE HELL IS HALO?

 

[Anno_Domini]

Not only if Man of Steel will be the first mega blockbuster for the character, but...will Man of Steel even be a great DC film altogether since DC has a bad track record except for Nolan's trilogy?

 

[ThePowerCosmic]

[Donnie Darko]

Which movie will cause the most arguments on the Hype, essentially taking over every thread, no matter what the actual topic is? (I only bring this up because we definitely had one in 2012 with The Dark Knight Rises)

Speaking of, where is WB taking Batman in the coming years?

What is going to be the next big book series to strike gold at the box office? (LOTR/Harry Potter/Twilight/Hunger Games)

Will any new comic book films be announced and actually move forward?

What will be the John Carter-sized flop of 2013, if there is one?

 

[Airwings]

What is going to be the next big book series to strike gold at the box office? (LOTR/Harry Potter/Twilight/Hunger Games)

Not 2013, but in later years: Narnia will get its second run on the cinemas, and the remaining four books will become successful films, more so than the latest attempt.

You read it here first!

 

[Donnie Darko]

I REALLY want to believe that, but I just don't think Narnia set the world on fire the way they hoped. Are they definitely even making new movies?

 

[Airwings]

^ I've read that they might do another in 2018. It could be either Magician's Nephew or Silver Chair.

[ThePowerCosmic]

I'm confused why this thread isn't booming at the moment. We speculate on so much stuff here and yet barely anyone has questions to post.

Anyway, I'll be revisiting this thread and answering my questions after I've seen the movies.

That's because people are making fun of the poster who predicts the future.

Gotta admit, though... That was pretty damn funny!

[bullets]

What will the live action Ninja Turtles look like?

How much of Channing Tatum will we see in GI Joe 2 ?

Will Ghostbusters 3 move forward or finally be put to rest?

 

[bullets]

I think it's funny one of the biggest questions was answered already. JJ Abrams is set to direct Star Wars episode 7. Now I wonder what the plot will be.

 

[Gianakin_]

Who will direct Episode 7? Michael Giacchino!

You mean "score", right? Or JJ Abrams!

 

[Octoberist]

I think it's funny one of the biggest questions was answered already. JJ Abrams is set to direct Star Wars episode 7. Now I wonder what the plot will be.

While I don't think we'll know who'll be cast yet (that'll be like next year), I wouldn't be surprised if something got leaked.

 

[ThePowerCosmic]

You mean "score", right? Or JJ Abrams!

Lol! Meant to say JJ, but I guess I was excited about Giacchino and put his name instead!

 

[Gianakin_]

Hey, I can't blame you for your excitement, especially when I share it!

 

[Donnie Darko]

How much of Channing Tatum will we see in GI Joe 2 ?

I'd say he probably takes his shirt off, but that's about it. I highly doubt he will hang dong in a GI Joe movie.









Oh, like how much screen time!

 

[bullets]

I definitely meant screen time, lol.

 

[ThePowerCosmic]

Hang dong...?

Jesus, guys.
