This season is always a little strange, because most people are catching up on the Oscar Nominee films instead of going to the theater. But if you’re like me and don’t have any interest in watching ROMA, then there is definitely something interesting every weekend.

Holmes and Watson
A humorous take on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s classic mysteries featuring Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson.
We love Sherlock Holmes. Not sure if the Talladega Nights boys can make it funny without insulting the text too much though. Let’s see how it goes.

Escape Room
Six strangers find themselves in circumstances beyond their control, and must use their wits to survive.
Seems a lot like the Saw franchise by the description, but it’s got Karen from Netflix Daredevil, so that’s something! Also, If you haven’t been to an escape room before, you should go! They are fun.
January 11
Replicas
A scientist becomes obsessed with bringing back his family members who died in a traffic accident.
Need your Keanu fix while waiting for the next John Wick film? Who doesn’t love some family-based resurrection story?
January 18
Glass
Security guard David Dunn uses his supernatural abilities to track Kevin Wendell Crumb, a disturbed man who has twenty-four personalities.
Who knew that the 2000 film about a low-key superpowered Bruce Willis, and the 2016 film about DID James McAvoy were related?? Shyamalan! You’ve done it again!
Jan 25
The Kid Who Would Be King
A band of kids embark on an epic quest to thwart a medieval menace.
Based on a kids book, never too soon to get kids into D&D, and this seems like the movie to get them in the mood!
Feb 1
Miss Bala
Gloria finds a power she never knew she had when she is drawn into a dangerous world of cross-border crime. Surviving will require all of her cunning, inventiveness, and strength. Based on the Spanish-language film.

The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part
It’s been five years since everything was awesome and the citizens are facing a huge new threat: LEGO DUPLO® invaders from outer space, wrecking everything faster than they can rebuild.
It’s actually been five years!? Well, it was a good movie, and Lego Batman was even better, so I’m ready to see this, granted I’ll probably not go alone…
Feb 15
Alita: Battle Angel
An action-packed story of one young woman’s journey to discover the truth of who she is and her fight to change the world.
Look past those anime eyes, and get into this super cool looking movie! It was originally scheduled for December, but I don’t think that’s a bad thing. To be fair, just because they can’t compete with Aquaman AND Mary Poppins Returns AND Bumblebee AND Spider-Man, doesn’t mean it doesn’t deserve a chance.

How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World
As Hiccup fulfills his dream of creating a peaceful dragon utopia, Toothless’ discovery of an untamed, elusive mate draws the Night Fury away. When danger mounts at home and Hiccup’s reign as village chief is tested, both dragon and rider must make impossible decisions to save their kind.
Dreamworks is famous for being wildly inconsistent, but the last two of these films were super fun and inventive. It’s more than hot Hiccup getting me to that theater this time around!

Chaos Walking
A dystopian world where there are no women and all living creatures can hear each others’ thoughts in a stream of images, words, and sounds called Noise.
No Trailer Released Yet
I have heard literally nothing about this movie, and the premise sounds more like a comedy than anything, but it has Spider-Man and Rey, so why not?
Mar 8
Captain Marvel
Carol Danvers becomes one of the universe’s most powerful heroes when Earth is caught in the middle of a galactic war between two alien races.
This movie needs no explanation. The next MCU movie that will somehow explain how we get through Endgame. Of course you are going.

Us
A mother and a father take their kids to their beach house expecting to enjoy time with friends. But their serenity turns to tension and chaos when some visitors arrive uninvited.
Either you liked Get Out, or you didn’t see it. Lets see if Jordan Peele can go 2 for 2!
The Nerdd
