Now that we’re into the cold and drab month of January, and we’re being given very little reason to take a trip down to the local multiplex, it seems like a good time to start looking ahead to more exciting things in 2009. Although this year’s line-up of major theatrical releases does not seem quite as packed as the last couple of years have been, there are still a handful of blockbusters that are likely to make a whole lot of money. A few comic book movies, yes, and a few sequels to popular franchises, but also some new and original stories as well. Let’s take a look at some of the movies that lie ahead in 2009. Which ones are you most looking forward to? The poll below includes most of the year’s biggest releases, but feel free to list in the comments any of the other films you want to see as well.
