I am a cinephile and there are several film due to the be released yet this year that have levels of interest for me from ‘That could be fun’ to ‘I can’t miss.’ Here are a few in release order.

The Flash I am not a big fan of the DC films. A few have been good; several have been terrible but the more I hear about this one the more intrigued I become.

Asteroid City, Of this director’s work I have only seen, The Grand Budapest Hotel, but this one has tickled my interest.

Indian Jones and the Dial of Destiny This franchise is tired and frankly I suspect that there is little chance of a truly good movie, however it is helmed by the man that brought us Logan and Ford v Ferrari, both of which I really liked, so he’s getting a shot with this one.

Oppenheimer Nolan has only bored me once, Following, and he’s earned my interest with this dramatization of history.

Barbie Is this a melding of Lynchian imagery with crass commercialization? I don’t know but I will find out.

Last Voyage of the Demeter an entire film from a single chapter in Dracula, you have my curiosity.

Dune Part 2 The conclusion of the adaptation of Herbert’s novel with more major stars and talents brought in to complete the story.
