There were some golden eggs last year, but for me it wasn’t the best year for movies and left something to be desired. Luckily for us film goers, 2012 is just in time.

There are some huge films coming out this year and you’re not going to want to miss out.

Here is a quick list of the best 20 movies to see in 2012 – films that I am really excited to see in 2012 (alphabetical, release dates in brackets):

Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter (June 22)

HELL YES!! Abe killing vampires?! It’s got to be good.

Brave (June 22)

Every year Pixar makes an incredible movie, I have my money on this one.

Dark Shadows (May 11)

Burton and Depp go Vamp. The pictures aren’t convincing me but I still have hope.

Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance (Feb 17)

I still love Nick Cage, let’s hope this one is better than the first because if it’s done right it could be one hell of a ride.

Grey (now playing) 

This is already out but it’s not too late. Watch Liam Neeson fight wolves and be his badass self!

Life of Pi (Dec 21)

One of my favourite books is now a promising film in 2012. The story is amazing, I have my fingers crossed.

Prometheus (June 8 )

This movie could be bad but we all hope it will be good as Ridley Scott goes back to his sci-fi roots.

The Amazing Spider-Man (July 3)

Some people are sick of Spider-Man at this point but I like the new look and feel of this movie and think it could refresh the franchise.

The Avengers (May 4)

Uh, ya. I’ll be there opening night. This film is going to be huge. Nerds and action lovers unit!

The Dark Knight Rises (July 20)

See also Joseph Gordon-Levitt *swoon*. These Batman movies are some of the best action cinema I have seen this past decade. Not to be missed.

The Gangster Squad (Oct 19)

Starring Sean Penn, RyanGosling, Emma Stone and Josh Brolin AND directed by Ruben Fleischer…who cares what it’s even about!

The Great Gatsby (Dec 25)

The classic novel brought to life, starring Leo DiCaprio. I’m hoping for some Oscar nominations from this.

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey (Dec 14)

Peter Jackson can do no wrong in my mind and he has a way with J.R.R. Tolkien that no one else could ever dream to have. This will be an amazing movie. You know it will. It can only be epic and this is the film I am most looking forward to in 2012!
