5 reasons to get excited about film in 2019


After another successful year in 2018 at the box office with superheroes, sequels, spin-offs and big budget blockbusters more than paying their way, the good news is that 2019 has more of the same in line for it's eager audience with some interesting reboots, original productions and sequels upcoming in what potentially has the box office ingredients for a fruitful and enjoyable year at the Omniplex. So without further ado here are 5 reasons (there are many many more..) to be excited about cinema in 2019!


1. Jordan Peele releases his follow up feature to Get Out 


When the director of one of 2017's top features finally releases his follow up feature with the premise which states "A mother and a father take their kids to their beach house expecting to unplug and unwind with friends. But as night descends, their serenity turns to tension and chaos when some shocking visitors arrive uninvited" - cinema audiences everywhere are bound to take notice and eagerly await the next instalment from a very talented filmmaker



2. Disney serves up a selection of live action remakes 

Following on from the success of the live action remakes of the Jungle Book and Beauty and the Beast, this year sees Disney release no less than three live action remakes of some well known classics with Dumbo, Aladdin and The Lion King all  getting the live action do over. With Jon Favreau, Guy Ritchie and Tim Burton behind the lens, interesting results surely awaits!



3. Avengers: Endgame hits our big screens!

The film that simply needs no introduction as Marvel fans are finally put out of their misery after a year of head scratching at the climax of the superb Avengers: Infinity War. What now for our fallen superheroes and who will save the day that half of them have been wiped out (spoiler alert!) If this final chapter in Marvel Phase 3 contains a fraction of the entertainment of Infinity War there will be no complaints from it's dedicated followers!

2. The Return of Quentin Tarantino

In a return to the setting of L.A. for the first time since Pulp Fiction has assembled an all star cast that includes Brad Pitt and Leonardo Di Caprio. His latest upcoming feature Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is a mystery crime film written and directed by the iconic film maker and centres around the Manson Family murders. A break from the steady diet of summer blockbusters its' sure to be and I for one, can't wait!

1. The Final Part of the Star Wars trilogy lands
A franchise that has been good for this corner of the world in recent times sees J.J.Abrams return to the director's chair and it is safe to say that fans will be more than ready to take their seats when this final episode hits our big screens next Christmas. With the late Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill and fellow alumni Billy Dee  making an appearance this is one sure to score big in the box office and with Abrams at the wheel is bound to be a film of great quality and entertainment!
