2015 has come and gone, but 2016 shows promise of an exciting year for movies. So Aroundtable has compiled a list of films simply based on personal interest, of course. In some cases, we haven’t even read a synopsis or know the title of the movie but we are simply uber excited to see them.

Deadpool
Marvel’s favourite “Merc with a Mouth” finally gets his own solo film. So far, the trailer hits the mark. The film looks to have kept the essence of the character by mixing humour with hard core action. Please take note that this movie is Rated R, so please do not bring the kids.

Star Trek: Beyond
The Fast and the Furious director Justin Lin takes over the reins from J.J. Abrams who has been busy in a galaxy far, far away. After the nostalgia driven Star Trek: Into Darkness, this one promises to be a brand new adventure. Can’t wait to see what the crew of the Enterprise has to offer this time out even if the first trailer is a bit of a let down.

Bourne 5 (no title as of yet)
No information has been released except for the fact that they are bringing back Matt Damon and director Paul Greengrass. I really enjoyed the series so far and hope that fifth installment is not a let down.

Suicide Squad
Getting tired of the same ol’ good versus evil story lines, well how about the bad versus evil? This movie takes the superhero genre and turns it upside by taking some of DC’s bad guys and has them save the day.

The Magnificent Seven
This film stars Denzel Washington, Chris Pratt, Ethan Hawke & Vincent D’onofrio and retells a Hollywood Classic. With all this star power and adding director Antoine Fuqua (The Equalizer, Training Day) to the mix, it may just revitalize the Western.

Doctor Strange
Marvel has taken the movie world by storm with hit after hit in the superhero genre. Apparently, their expansion into the cosmos with Guardians Of The Galaxy was only the beginning. Doctor Strange promises to take us even further by delving into the mind tripping worlds of the magical and the mystical.

The concensus is that the film is about a band of rebels who are on a quest to steal the plans of the original Death Star.
