Godzilla (2014)
Director: Gareth Edwards
Cast: Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Bryan Cranston, Elisabeth Olsen, Juliette Binoche, Sally Hawkins, Ken Watanabe
Genre: Giant Monster Adventure
Plot: You know the story by now - giant monster terrorises/stomps around Japan. Humans squee in terror. But what really perks our interest is the director and cast. As Edwards' first movie since Monsters we'd be interested regardless - but it's the size and scale of the project that surprises. Equally, the thesp/proper actorly type cast - could this be the Godzilla needed to topple Cloverfiel d?

X-Men: Days of Future Past
Director: Bryan Singer
Cast: Michael Fassbender, James McAvoy, Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, Peter Dinklage, Jennifer Lawrence
Genre: Time-travelling Superhero Adventure
Plot: Considering the cast is as long as this gallery, we're still a bit baffled as to how returning X-Men auteur Bryan Singer is going to marry both timelines (from First Class , and the previous trilogy) into one coherent story. Still, if anyone can do it, he can - and with a movie title that ties into one of the X-Men's most classic and calamitous of comic stories (the X-Men go into the future only to find a bleak dystopian nightmare), we really can't wait to see the finished result.

22 Jump Street
Director: Phil Lord, Chris Miller
Cast: Channing Tatum, Jonah Hill, Ice Cube
Genre: Comedy
Plot: Aside from that address change (this sequel to 21 Jump Street is so-called because the base of operations is moving location… to the other side of the street), little is known about this follow-up to the unexpectedly-awesome first Jump Street. Teases co-director Phil Lord: “If the first movie is about two people getting together for the first time, this is about what happens if you try to really make the relationship work.”
