With 2018 about to wrap itself up, we look ahead to 2019 and the movies I look forward to the most this year. I did a most anticipated movies of 2018 list a year ago and its funny to see how some movies anticipation dropped significantly and some rose quite a bit by the time they came out. For example, I had "The Predator" as my number 3 most anticipated movie of 2018 last December, but its August release date got pushed back to September and reports came out the movie was terrible and the director got fired and by the time it came out in September I didn't even bother to see it in theaters at all. Same can be said for Goosebumps 2 which I listed as my 5th most anticipated movie of 2018. As soon as the first trailer was released I could tell this was just a lazy rehash of the first one and my excitement went out the window totally. So this is my list as of today, but who knows which movies I will gain or lost interest in over time. Should be a super fun year, the summer lineup this year is stacked.

Good god this is going to be an amazing year. The top 8 are movies I am absolutely at a 10/10 hype level for. Jumanji 2 at number 9 is a question mark, if it captures the tone of the first one then this could easily be a top 5 movie of the year, but if the cast is different this movie could also suck too, we just don't know enough about it yet. Its going to be an all time incredible year for horror as 9 of my top 17 most anticipated movies of the year are horror movies (If you are counting Godzilla as horror, which I am.) Four of the remaining 8 are superhero movies which means only 4 of my top 17 are neither superhero or horror movies (Toy Story 4, Lion King, Detective Pikachu, and Jumanji 2)
