movies to look forward to.

When White Collar hit their season finale, I was so depressed. ONLY 13 EPISODES. And it ends with a devastating cliffhanger. AHHHHH! And I don't know when it returns again. :( And Vampire Diaries doesn't return onto the television screen until 23rd March. Days before trials. :'( I felt so depressed.

Anyway, I did what Sugeeta would normally do (minus the soccernet part :P ).
Go on IMDb. And here, are the movies to look forward to in these few months.

1. Alice in Wonderland


Hands down a classic remake worth watching. I'm not a big fan of the classic tale, but Johnny Depp is a fantastic actor, so it should be fun. :) I'm waiting to see my Cheshire cat friend. Heehee. Love that toothy grin. :D And apart from the mystery and fantasy going on about it, it's got fantastic reviews so far, just what you'd expect from Tim Burton. Should be worth every Malaysian cent. However much that is worth. :P

2. Dear John


Nicholas Sparks + Channing Tatum + Amanda Seyfried.
I'm not a giant fan of Nicholas Sparks, and this book that he wrote wasn't a fantastic read either. Okay, I know movies adapted from books like these don't normally turn out very well, as the books are always much much much better, unless you have a fantastic director, like directors who directed HP1 and LOTR. But I'm a Channing Tatum fan, and I never miss out on his movies anyway. Amanda Seyfried; I'm not a huge fan. She's a REALLY good actor though. Sounds promising. :)

Synopsis:
Special Forces Army Sergeant John Tyree (Channing Tatum) is home on a two-week leave from Germany. He meets Savannah (Amanda Seyfried) after he dives into the ocean to retrieve Savannah's purse that had fallen off the pier. John is smitten by Savannah and falls in love at first sight. Savannah is a college student at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. She is on spring break and is helping build a house for Habitat for Humanity. John joins in with Savannah to help build the house. Along the way a budding romance occurs, and Savannah falls deeply in love with John. As she is about to go back to college, she promises to write John overseas during the next 12-months until he returns to her after completing his enlistment. Their love is put to the test when John reenlists after the 9/11 attack.

3. Remember Me


So, after his airbrushed abs on New Moon, I was totally turned off by Robert Pattinson. Actually, I was turned never turned on by him in the first place. He puts vampires to shame. *Vampire Diaries KICKS ASS* But according to reviews, he acted well in this movie! Very promising. And its a sweet chick flick. Whats not to like? :)

Synopsis:
In the romantic drama Remember Me, Robert Pattinson plays Tyler, a rebellious young man in New York City who has a strained relationship with his father (Pierce Brosnan) ever since tragedy separated their family. Tyler didn't think anyone could possibly understand what he was going through until the day he met Ally (Emilie de Ravin) through an unusual twist of fate. Love was the last thing on his mind, but as her spirit unexpectedly heals and inspires him, he begins to fall for her. Through their love, he begins to find happiness and meaning in his life. Soon, hidden secrets are revealed, tragedy lingers in the air, as the circumstances that brought them together threaten to tear them apart. Set in the summer of 2001, Remember Me is an unforgettable story about the power of love, the strength of family, and the importance of living passionately and treasuring every day of one's life.

4. Wall Street 2: Money Never Sleeps


I am a Shia LaBeouf fan. Loved him ever since his role in Transformers (and forever). I've never watched crime-economic related movies before too. And well a sequel to an Academy winning movie? Should be good good good!

Synopsis:
The film is set 23 years after the first film, in June 2008 and Gordon Gekko has just been released from prison. Despite his initial attempts to warn Wall Street of the forthcoming economic downturn and stock market crash, no one in the financial world believes him due to his conviction for financial crimes. Gekko decides to re-focus his attention on rebuilding his relationship with his estranged daughter, Winnie. Due to their time apart, and the fact that Winnie blames Gekko for her brother Rudy's suicide, she avoids any contact with him. At the same time, the mentor of young Wall Street trader Jacob unexpectedly dies, and Jacob suspects his hedge fund manager of being involved in the death. Jacob, who is Winnie's fiance, seeks revenge and agrees to Gekko's offer of help, in return for which Jacob agrees to help Gekko with Winnie.

Looking forward to this. HEEH. :)
