Hi, I've been going through the imdb and thought we should have a new version of this thread. Here are the films I am looking forward to, if you can think of others be sure to add them to the list. I would like to give a special mention to Bertolucci's comeback after a decade and to Malick's sudden prolific manners, having four new projects coming up - about as many as he made in the last 40 years. Maybe after so much time relefecting on religious issues he came to realise his own mortality?
 
Cosmopolis - David Cronenberg
The Master - Paul Thomas Anderson
The Wolf of Wall Street - Martin Scorsese
Silence - Martin Scorsese
The Burial - Terrence Malick
Lawless - Terrence Malick
Knight of Cups - Terrence Malick
Me and You - Bernardo Bertolucci
Damsels in Distress - Whit Stillman
Moonrise Kingdom - Wes Anderson
On the Road - Walter Salles
Gebo et l'ombre - Manoel de Oliveira
Los Amantes Pasajeros - Pedro Almodovar
Hidden Force - Paul Verhoeven
The King of Soho - Michael Winterbottom
Django Unchained - Quentin Tarantino
Anna Karenina - Joe Wright
La Banda Picasso - Fernando Colomo

To add

Amour - Michael Haneke
All You Need Is Love - Susanne Bier
The Wettest County - John Hilcoat
Killing Them Softly (previously titled Cogan's Trade) - Andrew Dominik
Stoker - Chan Wook Park
Rust and Bone - Jacques Audiard

And along with The Wettest County because I am a huge Tom Hardy fan,
I'm pretty damn excited to see The Dark Knight Rises. :)

LOL, Bier is making a film called "All You Need Is Love"?
Are we sure it's not another April's fool joke :D
(pardon my prejudiced views on Bier)

Anyway, I just wanted to say WOODY ALLEN.

O and how could we forget...

Only God Forgives - Nicolas Winding Refn

I will probably keep thinking of more as the day goes on.

yes Woody Allen's "To Rome With Love" which I liked the previous title
better "The Bop Decameron".

And Hunter, that's on you. Park is my favorite Korean director, well I
might not be so sure of that now as I have been watching more of Chang-
dong Lee and really loving his films.

I really like Bier and I am unsure of any back story on her that you
may refer to Kasper, enlighten please so I can get the joke. :) But
she has not missed with me yet and even though this is another film
made in America by her, Anders Thomas Jensen is her screenwriter
(always a good thing) and she thoroughly surprised me with her
American debut "Things We Lost in The Fire". I dont like the casting
choice of Pierce Bronson but again I'm going to reserve any opinion
because she has surprised me once before.

Well I really like Joon-ho Bong as well, have you seen any of Chang-
dong Lee films yet Hunter. I got a feeling he might be more your
style. I have seen 3 of his films so far
Oasis
Secret Sunshine
Poetry

All three were great but I think Secret Sunshine was my favorite. He
is a very unconventional filmmaker and most might find him boring. His
plot and script goes in many different directions, sometimes no
direction at all but still I am gripped. The last act of Secret
Sunshine was a complete plot free fall.

yes, that final shot in secret sunshine- was a real conundrum for me until I talked it out on imdb boards.
I did really like it and poetry. Have not seen oasis.
 
Have any of you seen The Recipe? I was very impressed.

Also just remembered Guy Maddin has a new film coming out this year
called Keyhole, I think it already premiered at the Toronto Film
Festival last year but has not had a major release yet. Here is the
trailer.

I have been very busy these last weeks so I have not been able to take
part in these discussions. There are so many films I look forward to
on all of these lists! Keyhole by Guy Maddin is not getting great
reviews but it is still the film I look the most forward to seeing.
Love your list Guillermo!

Also forgot about the Coen's new film "Inside Llewyn Davis", It is
slated for a early 2013 release on IMDB but I'm sure it will premiere
sometime this year first to qualify for the award season, its already
in post production.
