I voted Alien (in hope), Guardians and Logan, though I'm really looking forward to Planet of the Apes, Bladerunner, Star Wars and Kingsman as well. I limited myself to three votes. Felt a bit like cheating otherwise.
There are a few sequels coming up for films that I've never got round to. Kong and John Wick, for example.

My top 3 from the list is Logan, Kingsman and GOTG 2.
Not on the list is Dunkirk and Thor (maybe King Arthur as well cause im a big Ritchie).
Never was a huge Star Wars fan, won't see it when it comes out but will eventually.

Weekend Box Office:
SPLIT No. 1 for 2nd Week, Beats A DOG'S PURPOSE with $26 Million
Lasse Hallstrom's A Dog's Purpose came in behind expectations over the weekend with a debut of $18.3 million from 3,058 theaters at the North American box office after being dogged by controversy over a leaked video showing a canine in distress on the set of the film.
M. Night Shyamalan's sleeper hit Split fell a scant 36 percent in its second weekend to $26.3 million for a domestic total of $78 million. The horror film easily stayed No. 1 for Blumhouse and Universal.
The filmmakers and production companies of A Dog's Purpose, along with producer Gavin Polone, have said the video was highly edited and dispute allegations of abuse.
While the pic's debut is a solid opening in terms of financials — it cost a net $22 million to make — it had been tracking to open in the $24 million range before the video was published by TMZ, prompting calls of a boycott from PETA. Box-office observers believe A Dog's Purpose, rated PG, was hurt by the video, noting that major markets including New York, San Francisco and Washington, D.C., under-indexed.
The film, appealing to pet lovers of all ages, earned an A CinemaScore, fueling hopes for strong word of mouth.
Sony and Screen Gems' new entry Resident Evil: The Final Chapter followed at No. 4 with a projected $13.8 million from 3,104 theaters. The sixth installment in the franchise expects to do the majority of its business overseas, where it won the weekend with $28.3 million from 44 markets for a foreign total of $64.5 million and a global cume of $78.3 million. (The Final Chapter opened offshore ahead of its domestic bow.)
Placing No. 10 in its North American debut, Stephen Gaghan's Gold bombed with $3.4 million from 2,166 theaters, marking the worst wide opening of Matthew McConaughey's career (that doesn't count 1993's My Boyfriend's Back, in which he played a minor role). The Weinstein Co. originally planned to open Christmas Day before pushing its release.

I'm not a fan of that either. A good trailer is one that doesn't do that.

I'm afraid to watch trailers and read the synopsis now. Too much spoiler. Like the "war on everyone" synopsis could've totally leave out the last part about "someone as dangerous as them".

Damn, Danny DeVito is such a good actor that he's actually co-starring twice in "The Comedian."
Cast: Robert De Niro, Leslie Mann, Danny DeVito, Edie Falco, and Danny DeVito
I haven't heard of any of these films and when I saw the title "The Comedian" I was hoping it was about this guy :

I am just giving you a hard time. Like what you like.
It just looked super cheesy teenaged Nicholas Sparks to me.

Critics Reviews for RINGS
Rotten Tomatoes: 5% approval rating (3 out of 55 critics like it)
Critics Consensus: Rings may offer ardent fans of the franchise a few threadbare thrills, but for everyone else, it may feel like an endless loop of muddled mythology and rehashed plot points.
Entertainment Weekly - The film tries going in a few too many directions at once, and some wires get crossed. Storylines that seem important at first end up going nowhere. Characters appear and then fade back into the background. But in the end, there are enough grotesque corpses and symbolic visions of haunted wells to give fans what they came for. C+
New York Daily News - Worst of all, the movie is just a plain boring rehash. After the opening scene on a plane, there are few scares to be found, as the wicked Samara — the whole reason to watch these movies — is put on the backburner until the lame cliffhanger finale. In the end, this latest sequel just "Rings" inexcusably bad. 1/5
Toronto Star - Notice how Rings takes plot cues from recent horror hits? Gutierrez and his team obviously don’t believe in the currency of their own chills, further attempting to paper over gaps with jump-scares, sludgy cinematography, choppy editing and an obstreperous score. And they have the gall to hint at further sequels. 1/4
Rolling Stone - If crap movies carried penalties for inflicting torture on audiences, then Rings would merit a death sentence. This overdose of cinematic Lunesta takes the horror out of horrorshow – and the show is lost as well, since Spanish director F. Javier Gutiérrez doesn't seem remotely interested in rousing anything in us besides all-consuming apathy. 0/4
