24 Most Hotly Anticipated Movies Of 2014

2. X-Men: Days Of Future Past (May)

The Pitch... A dream double billing of not only the First Class team, including Fassbender, McAvoy and Lawrence, but also the Singer-era (mark I) cast of older heads McKellen, Stewart and Jackman. Expect time travel, sentinels and a whole new threat to mutant existence. Great Scott! Plus Points Singer's return is a major plus point, and the opportunity to see both casts on screen (even if Jackman's Wolverine is the only one who'll probably interact with himself) is worth the ticket price enough. And that's before you mention the Sentinel threat, the addition of fan-favourite characters like Bishop, and incredibly talented actors like Peter Dinklage. The Reservations... There are a LOT of balls in the air, and two major plot strands, which will require considerable balance. But at least we get to see Singer's take on a major X-Men war that won't involve Vinnie Jones.
