I wasn't sure if Disneyphile would post a thread or not since we skipped October. I'll reply later.

I thought maybe someone else might respond so I wouldn’t have to double post. Oh well.

Anyway, definitely excited to see Moana, Fantastic Beasts…, and Doctor Strange. And I'm intrigued in Edge of Seventeen and Rules Don't Apply. Not sure about a Street Cat Named Bob yet, but I like Joanna Froggat and love Treadaway. Many of the other films I would like to see at some point, too, for various actors I like (Amy Adams, Nicole Kidman, Michelle Williams, Jessica Chastain, etc.), but aren’t priority.

Doctor Strange, Trolls, The Arrival, and Moana for me.

Fantastic Beasts somewhere down the line as well... (I think I remember reading that it's going to be 5 movies now, instead of 3?)

I'm not sure how many of them I'll catch in theaters, but Moana is probably top priority.

I'm hoping that The Arrival continues the streak of intriguing sci-fi/space films that have been released every fall since 2013 (Gravity, Insterstellar, The Martian).

Tbh, I’m taking that with a grain of salt right now because I have a feeling it will be cut back down to 3 if the first one isn’t as successful as they’d like or the second one shows a steep drop.

The only reason I’m excited for these despite the fact that they’re obviously intended to keep Warner Bros’ money-flow going (and keep interest in the HP theme park high) is because, unlike the recent play, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, the movies are actually written by Rowling. Plus, many of my drawbacks with the HP film series won’t pop up here because this film is completely original and doesn’t need to hold to a source material. Moreover, I love Eddie Redmayne and the promise of a few touches from the HP series (like Grindelwald) down the line makes me optimistic. Overall, I’m probably more excited for this than I was the latter half of the HP film series.
