10. Prince of Persia
Release Date: May 28th 2010
If you are a fan of the video game series than you have a pretty good idea of what to expect from Prince of Persia; A cocky prince (Jack Gyllenhaal) opens the sands of time after being tricked by an evil Vizier and now it is his job to set the world right again by slashing, hacking, jumping and manipulating time on his way to victory. Although it’s Disney, we think this movie will still be a good time and even if it sucks you can stare at Gemma Arterton for 2 hours, sounds like a win win to us.
9. Avatar: The Last Air Bender
Release Date; July 2nd 2010
If you are a nerd and a kid at heart like us you will love the cartoon series “Avatar: The Last Air Bender”. The basic concept behind the story is people can control the basic elements by bending them, but only the Avatar, Aang can control them all. It is Aang’s job to bring peace back to the world by defeating the evil fire lord. With the help of his friends he learns to master all 4 elements and reach his true power.
We really have high hopes for this movie but with M. Night Shyamalan involved who knows what direction this movie will take. Let’s just cross our fingers and hope he doesn’t muff this up as well.
8. Shrek Forever After – Shrek 4
Release Date: May 2010
Well it looks like Mike Myers and Eddy Murphy need new yachts, meet Shrek Forever After. In this version Shrek has become a domesticated family man. Instead of scaring villagers away like he used to, the now-reluctant ogre agrees to autograph pitch forks. Longing for the days when he felt like a “real ogre,” Shrek is tricked into signing a pact with the smooth-talking deal maker, Rumpelstiltskin. Shrek suddenly finds himself in a twisted, alternate version of Far Far Away, where ogres are hunted, Rumplestiltskin is king and Shrek and Fiona have never met. Now, it’s up to Shrek to undo all of Rumpelstiltskin’s mischief in the hopes of saving his friends, restoring his world and reclaiming his one True Love and family.
7. Robin Hood
Release Date: May 14th 2010
What another Robin Hood movie? Not surprising Hollywood hasn’t had an original idea in years, but this Robin Hood has promise. Taking from the book of Batman Begins, the movie follows the exploits of Richard Coeur De Lion who later becomes the legendary Robin Hood. As long as Russell Crowe keeps his fists to himself and doesn’t punch out the director, we think this movie will turn out pretty good.
6. A team
Release Date: June 11th 2010
This was on the list last year, Top 10 Most Anticipated Movies of 2009, but here is what we had to say about it back then:
In 1972 a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn’t commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the A-Team.
HELL YEAH. As long as they keep the casting under control and don’t go all Starsky and Hutch on this one it could be the movie I’ve been waiting years for. The only thing I don’t think I’ll be able to get past is someone other than Mr. T playing B.A. Baracus (especially if it’s Ice Cube who is rumored).

5. Toy Story 3
Release Date: June 18th 2010
We love us some Toy Story, but who doesn’t, honestly? In Toy Story 3 Andy is all grown up and off to college and now has new toys to play with, barley legal 18 year old girls. With no need for toys Woody, Buzz, and the rest of their toy-box friends are dumped in a day-care center after their owner, Andy, departs for college. The Toy Story series hasn’t failed us yet and I doubt it will this time. Good fun for all ages. Can’t wait.

4. Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland
Release Date: March 5th 2010
Tim Burton is at it again, taking a childhood story and skull f*&king it into something awesome. Tim Burton’s version of Alice in Wonder takes place ten years after Alice last visited wonderland. While attending a socialite party she catches a glimpse of the famous white rabbit which she follows into a dark hole, sending her into the infamous Wonderland. From the looks of the movie, it doesn’t seem that this is going to be the last dark hole Alice wonders into. Can someone say sequel.

3. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1
November 19th 2010
Guilty! We freaking love Harry Potter. If I was being biased this would be number one on the list but I’m not, so number three it is. Part one of the Deathly Halllows starts off where the last movie ended, the magic world is in shambles and dark times are ahead. Harry, Ron, and Hermione are on the run from the Death Eaters all the while trying to save the world. The most action packed of all the books this one is sure to pull in even anti-potter viewers.
2. Twilight Saga: Eclipse
Release Date: 30 June 2010
If you are a thirteen year old girl or a flamboyant man, you can’t wait for more sparkly vampires.

And Bella is forced to choose between her true love for Edward or her friendship with Jacob Black as the struggles between vampires and werewolves continues. But there is still another choice for Bella to make, mortality or immortality? Not going to lie, it took a lot for us to place this one on the list and so close to the top.
