IMDb's Top 10 Most Anticipated Movies of 2025
IMDb's Top 10 Most Anticipated Movies of 2025
Ugh, I try not to be this guy but 7/10 of those movies are remakes/sequels and of the remaining 3 one is the 14th iteration of a character, one is a video game adaptation, and the other is a superhero movie (I assume it ties into the MCU but I can't be fucked to care). I understand you typically get hyped for things you can expect but this list sucks
Let's be honest, this is a "most anticipated" list. It's expected that people will be anticipating continuations/alterations of stories they know and love.
It's very hard to anticipate a Keanu Reeves movie about a drunk painter with an underground director.
Absolutely spot on.
You can't anticipate what you already know.
Also, if you haven't pitched that Keanu movie, you need an agent. I'm in.
Not a single original idea.
Yeah, its the "most anticipated" list so it really just measuring brand recognition.
Rolling Stone has a better list of anticipated movies:
https://www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv-movie-lists/most-anticipated-movies-2025-1235188893/With you on that. At first I thought the list was some kind of satire...
I'm bookmarking this so that when I'm feeling depressed about my lack of creativity I'll just look at this list.
Frame it right above the desk and next to the live laugh lube sign
Yet another example for: popularity doesn't equal quality. I mean there will be more enough money in those movies for a high production value, but what an uninspiring bunch of crap!
Yeah, serious parallels to the Steam awards.
Truly one of the lists of all time
This is the type of list someone you meet at a party who "loves movies" would give you.
....are these not movies?
According to whom? Some marketing employee at IMDB?
I am literally not interested in any of them 😂
28 Years Later is directed by Danny Boyle, the same director of the original. Alex Garland wrote the original. Garland and Boyle wrote 28 Years together.
I think I’ll give it a chance.
Great. Superhero, remakes, and sequels. Amazing. /s
Select big studio movies, sort by marketing budget descending
I'm excited for the new Bong Joon Ho movie Mickey 17
Remake.
Sequel.
Prequel.
Remake.
??? (Ripoff)
Sequel.
Remake.
Sequel.
Shameless money grab. (Oh wait that's all of them)
Sequel.
"I can't wait for them to reboot The Fantastic Four again" said nobody ever
That one literally looks like it’s a joke
It certainly does have an Adult Swim/Sealab vibe to it
I wasn't aware anyone cared about Thunderboltcats or Capt Weaksauce.
I can't believe the only entry on this list that isn't an unnecessary sequel or an extremely unnecessary reboot is a fucking video game movie.
Because those are never trash, right?
People voted for this shit? Or were there just no other choices on the ballot?
What is Thunderbolts? Just MCU's version of Suicide Squad?
Basically, yeah.
I'm in for 28 Years Later and Mission Impossible but I think the majority of movie lists are just uninspiring and boring.
ugh, there are like just 2 new movies in that list
Which 2 are not a remake, sequel or adaptation?
I'm in for the first two!
What's with the asterisks on Thunderbolts?
Watch the trailer.
David Harbour says, “We are the THUNDERBOLTS!”
title screen appears
The rest of the team indicates they don’t like that name.
asterisk appears next to the title
Oh, it's part of the name, I thought there was a missing note
Kevin Feige said we will find out when the movie releases, but fans have already come up with theories.
No one knows for sure yet.
No one knows for sure, but I intend to find out.
Reboot!
Yeah, I wanna see Florence Pugh's sarcastic kickass character, though. I'd watch her and Deadpool be the most cynical trash-talking adversaries over like 7 seasons ... and somehow Phil Coulson is in it too with Fury pulling a Bosley.
Yeah, I'd watch the hell out of that.
Looking forward to 1, 2 and 6. The rest aren’t on my radar.
A lot of this stuff capitalizes on our desire for nostalgia. When shit is going bad, you reach for something you know and remember fondly. Capitalism banks on that. That’s why we have so many reboots and sequels. It’s not a bad thing if they’re not obvious cash grabs and you just need a pickup, but it’s also very lazy. It’s another sign that a cultural plateau is where everything is at.
The reality is that the majority of movie viewers want more of what feels safe.
Just 1 & 2 here. The rest just look like cash-grabs.
I’m looking forward to 6 because I like Anthony Mackie (Twisted Metal was awesome) and want to see how his story goes. The MCU has felt unmoored and that could be a good one in the mix.
