The original The Wolf Man is one of my favourite Universal horrors .... not sure if Joe Johnston is the right man for the job (IMHO he's cut from the same cloth as Stephen Sommers and look what he did to The Mummy and Van Helsing) and the predictable casting of Hopkins (zzzz) doesn't bode well either. However, Benicio del Toro is a good actor and make bring something worthwhile to the show.

I was thinking much the same thing
Another I was looking forward to is Frank Miller's The Spirit as I'm a big fan of his & loved Sin City, but it's had some hideous reviews.

Valkyrie sounds promising, but I have been spoiled by the excellent German version of the story with Sebastien Koch.
I hadn't heard of Public Enemies before so I just looked it up .... that does sound good!
Transformers 2 will be out next summer so TBW will be happy.

Directed by Michael Mann,with Johnny Depp as John Dillinger and Christian Bale as his nemesis - the pedigree looks good.

Alan Partridge the Movie?
Not heard of that one! Should be brilliant.
Wasn't impressed with the trailer for Valkyrie, so I don't think I'll be troubling the local fleapit. Star Trek and Terminator Salvation will be taking money offa me though.
