This time last year I published a list of some of my most anticipated movies of 2013, and although I acknowledged at the time that I really had no clue of the quality of any of the films, let alone what they would even be about, it’s amazing the picks that landed and the ones that didn’t.
In the plus column, I plugged “Inside Llewyn Davis,” “Gravity,” “Prisoners,” “The Place Beyond the Pines,” “Captain Phillips,” “This is the End,” “Before Midnight” and “The Wolf of Wall Street.” Not a bad batting average.
On the minus side however, I talked about “To the Wonder,” “Oldboy,” “Ender’s Game,” “I’m So Excited” and “A Glimpse Inside the Mind of Charles Swan III.”
And a handful, including “The Monuments Men,” “The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby” and “Labor Day” still have not come out. How about that for a prediction?
So which of the 25 movies I’ve picked here will we be talking about at the end of 2014? It could be all of them.
