Pixar’s box office prowess is potent. There’s very little the likes of Abraham Lincoln can do to stop it from taking the box office crown.

ThoughtsNormally, I have an interest in genre films like this, but everything the trailers have presented this far has been far from inspirational, merely gimmicky. |
ThoughtsSounds like a terrible idea with a miscast actor who sounds more like a modern politician delivering a resprise of the Gettysburg Address than the 16th President himself. |
ThoughtsNot my cup of tea, and not Oscar’s either. |

ThoughtsPixar has only once led me astray, so there is little chance I’ll miss one of their films. |
ThoughtsGood voice cast but the premise isn’t intirguing enough for me to brave a theatre full of screaming kids. I’ll wait for the DVD. |
ThoughtsPixar had an off-year last year with Cars 2, but Brave may return them to their place as one of Oscar’s favorite studios. |

ThoughtsBeing excited for a Steve Carell movie is bizarre to me, but there it is. The movie looks like a great deal of fun and Carell isn’t playing the buffoon, which may be why. |
ThoughtsThe trailer looks like fun, but a comedy about the end of the world? At least it’s original. |
ThoughtsLooks fun, but fun doesn’t get you Oscar nominations. |

ThoughtsMidnight in Paris may have been a good film, but this doesn’t look to be on the same level of quality. |
ThoughtsSomething for only the most diehard Woody Allen fan. |
ThoughtsWoody Allen won Oscar #4 last year, so those good graces could bring his name back into the conversation this year. |
