There are two films that I want to look at in this post. One that will be Oscar-worthy next year for its acting and screenplay, the other for visual effects and sound editing (my predictions obviously, feel free to disagree).
The first film is The Soloist. A quick synopsis in case you haven’t heard of it:
A schizophrenic homeless musician (Jamie Foxx) dreams of playing at the Walt Disney Concert Hall. Through "chance," he meets a journalist (Robert Downey Jr.), who tries to help him turn his life around and make that dream come true. That has all of the makings of an award-winning film right there. First and foremost, these are two of the most badass actors in all the land. If I could be any actor, hands down it would be RDJ (I mean who really wants to be Brad Pitt anymore? Angelina freaks me the hell out). From Ironman to a black man (kind of), this guy can do it all. You can bet your sweet ass I’ll be there the first week this is out. If you want to check out the preview, click here.
The other movie is Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. Ok, obviously not the same caliber of actors here — although Megan Fox has a lot going for her in my point of view. My God, I don’t think she’s from this planet.

I really don’t know what is wrong with me, but Shia LaBeouf was even pretty funny in the first Transformers, and I don't see that changing. Now whether or not you played with these toys as a kid or watched the cartoon, it doesn’t matter. These are good movies. The special effects and sound editing are phenomenal — it even comes through in the preview. Needless to say, its release date of June 24th is on my calendar. Put it on yours. Now.
An extra detail: Megan Fox has broken off her engagement with former 90210 star(?) Brian Austin Green. Eff yeah! If she’ll even consider marrying this tool, basically a former child star, there’s hope for all of us.

Ladies, I’m not even ruling out your chances; I'm betting/hoping Megan swings that way.
