Just five years late with this follow-up... that's not so bad is it?

You can find my anticipation post for this year back here.

As for those movies...

Bad Boys For Life

This one was promised for 2018, but it came out in 2020, so good thing I'm late posting this huh? It was good. Worth-the-wait good. Maybe not-like-the-second-one good but... I enjoyed it. Watched it on the big screen too.

Review here.

M:I 6 - Mission Impossible

There still hasn't been a bad movie in the series, and the seventh is coming out this year! Can't wait. Watched this one on the big screen too and it was solid.

Review here.

The Purge: The Island

They changed the name on this one.

It was originally meant to read as the title above, but it turned into The First Purge instead, one dabbling in the details of how the purge first got started and what prompted such a drastic survival contest in the first place... I kept my expectations in check since there's only so much they can do with the same concept - and it shows - but still they did not disappoint!

Review here.

Avengers: Infinity War

Was this the heyday of Marvel movies or what? When the villain truly didn't compromise. When they had one with substance, too, who didn't abide by any cliché vengeance motif but truly wanted to save the world. I loved that about it. How this was a clash of forces that both fought for something worth fighting for, and both so desperately.

Watched this one in 3D, and I'm not sure that was the best choice, 3D seems to shrink the screen a bit, and mess with your perceptions more so than truly enhance the visuals, but it was GOOD.

Review here.

X-Men: Dark Phoenix

This one came out a year late, 2019, but it was definitely worth the wait!

Still have not been disappointed by any one movie in this franchise either.

Review here.

Maze Runner: The Death Cure

Had already seen this one when I posted the anticipated sequels post, so no further comment here...

That'd be: The Cinema Year 2020.

I missed this one too, so without further ado...

That'd be: The Cinema Year 2021.

Didn't I post this earlier? Can't find it. Here we go if no and again if so...

It's been a couple of years since I posted my last list of sequels I looked forward to, but as a New Year's here and there's quite a few upcoming ones on the horizon I thought I'd revive the habit... at least for this one year.

So here's a few I am really looking forward to. And since sequels are in such surplus these days there's a few more after that at the end.

Keep reading if you want more.

Bad Boys For Life

This one was promised for 2018, but at the time of writing they've apparently postponed it again. After Bad Boys 2 in 2003 - which I still consider one of the best action movies of all time, I have really been looking forward to this one. Bummer it won't be this year, but whichever year is the year it comes out I'm really looking forward to it.

M:I 6 - Mission Impossible

A new M.I. movie?! Oh hell yeah! So far there hasn't been a single bad one in the series. It's not just action: it's action with complexity, big budgets, and a great group of characters gathered over the years. I can't wait.

The Purge: The Island

I just started watching The Purge franchise a few months ago, but so far I'm loving it. It's controversial, it's relevant, it's packed with action and filmed with style... so of course I can't wait to see how this one turns out too.

The title hints at something new, though apparently it's more a prequel than a sequel.

Maybe they're in the process of milking this franchise dry; unwilling to let it all play out and end just yet... but I hope it'll be good anyway. I imagine it might be something like Death Race, in that the event's now (or then - before it all spread like a plague) isolated to a specific area.

Like an island.

Avengers: Infinity War

Marvel have been putting out some pretty amazing movies recently, easily dominating the superhero scene the last few years. Their world just gets continually bigger and better, and though I don't believe it can keep doing so forever they definitely seem to be delivering this year too. I have no doubt this will be just... awesome.

This movie premiered earlier this week so maybe I'll be seeing it soon!

X-Men: Dark Phoenix

The last X-Men movie ended in such a conclusive way I thought it might have been over, but I'm not unhappy I was wrong! As this is another franchise I've yet to be disappointed with any one movie of I am hyped for this one too. It's a Marvel thing too.

Maze Runner: The Death Cure

Since the second Maze Runner movie in 2015 I've really been looking forward to this one, and this year is the year!

Actually I've already seen it. You can read the review here.
