5 Movies sure to Blow Up in 2012 Posted: 02 Jan 2012 04:05 AM PST
The Dark Knight RisesThis is the first no-brainer on our list. The Dark Knight grossed over 530 million dollars domestically, and was critically acclaimed to boot. Having the soon-to-be-dead Heath Ledger reinvent the classic character of Joker and get nominated for an Oscar really put The Dark Knight over the top. So when Director Christopher Nolan began work on Rises, the hype began in earnest. I would say that The Dark Knight Rises will be the highest grossing film of 2012, and it might, but take a look at what else we have coming. The HobbitYea. The Hobbit could become the biggest film of 2012. After all, it is the prequel to The Lord Of the Rings, which was the biggest thing in the history of man. Most of the major players are back for this, which will be broken into two movies. So look for it to be the major player of 2013 as well. For those who don’t know, The Hobbit will follow Bilbo Baggins on his own quest alluded to in LotR. With Oscar winner Peter Jackson at the helm, this is sure to be a blockbuster. PrometheusIt's entirely possible that this movie could be a bust as well as a boom. Currently, lots of rumors surround this Ridley Scott film. One rumor is that this is a loose Alien prequel. If this turns out to be true, and Scott is able to capture any of the old Alien magic, Prometheus could be big. After all, Scott has had huge movies in the past. Maybe this is the one to bring him back to form and show up at the box office in 2012. |
