2009 release dates...

VALKYRIE, WATCHMEN, THE WOLF MAN, WOLVERINE, STAR TREK, TERMINATOR IV, THE A-TEAM, PRINCE OF PERSIA, TRANSFORMERS 2, G.I. JOE, PUBLIC ENEMIES, A CHRISTMAS CAROL, AVATAR and so much more released in a packed 2009!

Because it's such a slow news day, I thought I would upload the most recent and accurate release dates we have for next year's movies. It's shaping up to be another remake/sequel heavy year but there's some really exciting projects among this bunch.

Here's all the movies that stood out to me as found on this IMDB page.
