This is probably one that we have all been waiting years for. The original "Incredibles" movie came out when I was little, and I haven't decided if I'm going to see this or not, but I think it will definitely be worth checking out at some point.

When I saw the first "Mamma Mia!" movie back in 2008, I never would have guessed it would be getting a sequel. As a lover of all things musical theatre, this has become one of my favorite Broadway shows, and films, and I absolutely cannot wait to go see the sequel when it comes out on July 20.

12. "12 Strong"

If you like history and war films, this one is definitely worth checking out. This looks like it is going to be an action-packed and inspiring story, and what's even more exciting is the fact that Chris Hemsworth is one of the leading men, and that was enough to convince me. This hits theatres on January 19.
