- DirectorRidley ScottStarsNoomi RapaceLogan Marshall-GreenMichael FassbenderFollowing clues to the origin of mankind, a team finds a structure on a distant moon, but they soon realize they are not alone.After what can only be described as a shameful portrayal of the Alien universe since Aliens, James Cameron has finally picked up the reins to reinvigorate the franchise. The new film focuses on the time before Ripley and her first encounter with our favorite acid for blood aliens. The film features the space jockeys featured in the first film when one of them (possibly more) crashed on LB426. Apparently these elephant looking ET's had something to do with the evolution of mankind and the creation of the aliens. Humans have some form of interaction with the space jockeys but, as we always seem to do, humans then fall out with their creators and somehow turn the aliens on them which I suspect nicely leads to the first Alien where we see the space jockey with a chest breach on LB426.
- DirectorJ.J. AbramsStarsChris PineZachary QuintoZoe SaldanaAfter the crew of the Enterprise find an unstoppable force of terror from within their own organization, Captain Kirk leads a manhunt to a war-zone world to capture a one-man weapon of mass destruction.Being a life time Trek lover (lover, not Trekky) and like 99% of everyone (trek fan or not), I loved JJ's version, I really am uber excited about the next installment.
- DirectorMatthijs van Heijningen Jr.StarsMary Elizabeth WinsteadJoel EdgertonUlrich ThomsenAt an Antarctica research site, the discovery of an alien craft leads to a confrontation between graduate student Kate Lloyd and scientist Dr. Sander Halvorson.The first movie blew me away and I hope the second installment, or prequel, lives up to it's predecessor.
- DirectorDavid TwohyStarsVin DieselKarl UrbanKatee SackhoffLeft for dead on a sun-scorched planet, Riddick finds himself up against an alien race of predators. Activating an emergency beacon alerts two ships: one carrying a new breed of mercenary, the other captained by a man from Riddick's past.I've been waiting for this movie since Chronicles of Riddick, which in my humble opinion is one of the most underrated movies of all time, I loved it and have seen it more times then I can remember. Unfortunately it would appear the production companies don't feel the same, so the story has gone down cheap street and it looks as though we may not see the Underverse after all, still, I love the character so still looking forward to it.
- DirectorJames CameronStarsSam WorthingtonZoe SaldanaSigourney WeaverJake Sully lives with his newfound family formed on the extrasolar moon Pandora. Once a familiar threat returns to finish what was previously started, Jake must work with Neytiri and the army of the Na'vi race to protect their home.Apparently my favorite director James Cameron is pulling out all the stops for Avatar 2 filming miles below the ocean in life threatening conditions. He should of got that Oscar instead of Boring Locker.
- DirectorPaul FeigStarsMelissa McCarthyKristen WiigKate McKinnonFollowing a ghost invasion of Manhattan, paranormal enthusiasts Erin Gilbert and Abby Yates, nuclear engineer Jillian Holtzmann, and subway worker Patty Tolan band together to stop the otherworldly threat.Yay! At last, these movies hold a special place in my heart.
- DirectorPaul W.S. AndersonStarsMilla JovovichSienna GuilloryMichelle RodriguezAlice fights alongside a resistance movement to regain her freedom from an Umbrella Corporation testing facility.I know these movies are regarded as tripe by many but I actually love them, despite the outlandish plots I continue to enjoy every film that has been released. Looking forward to the what craziness this movie pushes out.
- DirectorJoss WhedonStarsRobert Downey Jr.Chris EvansScarlett JohanssonEarth's mightiest heroes must come together and learn to fight as a team if they are going to stop the mischievous Loki and his alien army from enslaving humanity.Loved Thor, loved Captain America and loved Iron Man (number one, two was rubbish IMHO), so it goes without saying I cannot wait to see them all on the same screen, if nothing else just seeing how they weave the characters stories together is intriguing.
- DirectorPeter JacksonStarsMartin FreemanIan McKellenRichard ArmitageA reluctant Hobbit, Bilbo Baggins, sets out to the Lonely Mountain with a spirited group of dwarves to reclaim their mountain home and the gold within it from the dragon Smaug.Although I did enjoy the Lord of the Rings franchise I did find the first film mind numbing boring but felt the next two films reclaimed the glory, although I also found the first book boring. Any how's, I love Tolkien's Middle Earth and look forward to seeing how the Hobbit works out.
- DirectorZack SnyderStarsHenry CavillAmy AdamsMichael ShannonAn alien child is evacuated from his dying world and sent to Earth to live among humans. His peace is threatened when other survivors of his home planet invade Earth.Only reason I want to see this is to find out if the Superman franchise can recover from the last film which, lets be honest, was an epic fail.
- DirectorDan TrachtenbergStarsJohn GoodmanMary Elizabeth WinsteadJohn Gallagher Jr.A young woman is held in an underground bunker by a man who insists that a hostile event has left the surface of the Earth uninhabitable.Loved the first one and can't wait to see what happens to the big nasty monster, so yes, excited about this.
- DirectorFrancis LawrenceStarsKeanu ReevesPeter StormareReeves will reprise his role as supernatural exorcist and demonologist John Constantine. Who, in the original is dying, but sticks around to save his soul by keeping demons in hell from breaching earth.I hope they bring back Keanu for the sequel, some people think it will be Daniel Craig, not really a big fan of Daniel personally.
- DirectorLiam O'DonnellStarsFrank GrilloBojana NovakovicJonny WestonA tough-as-nails detective embarks on a relentless pursuit to free his son from a nightmarish alien warship.Although considered a fail but most I was one of the rare breed who actually enjoyed this. So looking forward to the second installment.
- DirectorJoseph KosinskiStarsTom CruiseMorgan FreemanAndrea RiseboroughA veteran assigned to extract Earth's remaining resources begins to question what he knows about his mission and himself.Tom Cruise has two alien movies in 2013.
- DirectorDoug LimanStarsTom CruiseEmily BluntBill PaxtonA soldier fighting aliens gets to relive the same day over and over again, the day restarting every time he dies.
- DirectorMichael BayA sci-fi story set in the aftermath of a robot uprising.
