Movie Expectations

What preconceptions you hold going into a film can greatly influence how much you appreciate it. For example, I thought "Get Smart" was going to suck. I was pleasantly surprised. Its suck was less than my expectations, regardless of how it compares to the Hollywood's mean suckage. In fact I kinda liked it. Now I have to wonder, did I really like it or did it just suck less than anticipated?

I can break down more recent and future films for you as follows:

• I expect "Transformers 2" to suck. I know it's already out, but I haven't seen it yet.
  
• I expect all future Pixar movies to suck. (They'll never top "Finding Nemo".)
  
• I expect "G.I. Joe" to suck so bad that it might actually blow. I will probably never watch it, not even years later if it's on TV late at night and I have insomnia and have lost the remote.
  
• I expect "District 9" to be a let down, but not necessarily suck.
• I expect "Inglorious Basterds" to be aight, in the same way that "Rock-N-Rolla" was aight, where after watching it you wonder why they made it.
• I expect "G-Force" to really, really suck. It should suck to the point where history tries to forget it, and intelligent extra-terrestrials shun our planet for another decade just for having made it.
  

If any of these movies are slightly better than those pre-view-reviews, then you might just find me recommending them on my blog. Watch out for posts titled, "G.I. Joe Sucked But Didn't Blow" (I may watch it, ya never know).
