Looking forward to: "The Avengers" albeit with some trepidation. From what I gather it looks like there's a lot of stuff going on in it which could easily be to the movie's detriment...
NOT looking forward to: The next Batman movie. Sorry, folks, I thought "The Dark Knight Returns" was overly long and eventually started to bore the shit out of me. At one point I looked at my watch (never a good sign in a movie) and realized I still had another forty five minutes to endure and seriously considered whether I should just leave... I would have liked it much more had they cut out the Two-Face subplot, which would have trimmed the movie to probably around two hours...
Also, it looks like the new Batman has multiple villains. This is almost always a bad sign. The only time it ever worked was on the "Batman" tv show where you had The Joker, The Penguin, Catwoman (the Julie Newmar version) and The Riddler (The superior Frank Gorshin Riddler, not the inferior John Astin version)....
