15 Upcoming Movies That Might Be Surprisingly Awesome

10. The Good Dinosaur

Release Date: November 25 (US), November 27 (UK) Why It Could Suck: Pixar have been a little off their A-game lately, and though Inside Out absolutely signaled a return to top form, it doesn't seem hugely likely that this can measure up to the same level of quality. After all, the original director was removed mid-project for failing to "crack" the troubled third act, and the majority of the voice cast was replaced several months ago. Not exactly signs of a production Pixar is confident in. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O-RgquKVTPE Why It Might Be Surprisingly Awesome: All this said, trailers for the movie do so far suggest another visually stunning, cute animation from Pixar, and with its novel premise (an alternate Earth in which the dinosaurs were never made extinct), it has the potential to be another imaginative winner even if it doesn't end up being among their very best efforts. If it can nail the emotional component and paper over the evident production issues, there's no reason this couldn't be awesome. If any studio can do it, it's Pixar.
