A Happy Lawrence at Comic-Con |
5 movies stood out as the big winners at this year's Comic-Com. According to Twitter, the 5 movies that generated the most social media buzz were:
1. The Hunger Games: Mockingjay 2
2. Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice
3. Star Wars: The Force Awakens
4. Suicide Squad
5. Justice League
Of course the emphasis is on fantasy at Comic-Con but nonetheless the selections were interesting.
Jennifer Lawrence, the 'Hunger Games' heroine also got the top spot in "Most Tweeted-About Celebrities".
Lawrence attended this year's Comic-Con and told the audience that her main reason for attending was to say goodbye to the 'Hunger' franchise - which made her a Hollywood sensation.
Resident Evil - One More Time
Jovovich as Alice in 'Resident Evil' saga |
Looking for a September 2016 release date, there have been 5 prior movies and all have killed the box office and thrilled its die-hard fan base. The last episode, Resident Evil: Retribution released in 2012 grossed over $240 million.
Wreck-It Ralph -2
Ralph and friends |
A sequel to 'Wreck-It Ralph' while bandied about for some time is now a reality and we will again see Ralph on the big screen. This time around there will be even more cameo appearances by famous video game characters, including Angry Bird and Mario.
No release date has been announced but I expect to see 'Wreck-It Ralph-2' in last 2016.
Star Wars VII
Original cast showing age |
As the name of the next movie alludes ('Star Wars: The Force Awakens') - the saga has re-awakened after a 10 year sleep. Shooting is now over and the film is in post-production in advance of its December release.
The plot of this movie, the 7th in the series, will be set 30 years after the events in 'Return of the Jedi'. This is so the original main cast won't look silly as they are much older and show it.
