2011 is turning out to be a pretty good year for quality cinema releases. Already Submarine has proved how great British films can be and Thor has kicked off the blockbuster season in spectacular fashion. Over the next few months we have a many more huge films to look forward to and this week has seen the release of yet more exciting trailers.
First up is Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows Part 2. The Harry Potter series has come a long was since the first film way back in 2001. Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone was such a great start to the series and for me has become one of the classic children's films. Since then the series has matured and developed with it's audience just like the books and is now about to conclude with what looks like a fittingly epic final film. I very much enjoyed Deathly Hallows Part 1 and Part 2 (although I wish it was actually being released at Christmas which for me is the perfect time for these Harry Potter films) can't arrive soon enough.
Next it's the latest and final trailer for X-Men: First Class. I've enjoyed all of Matthew Vaughn's previous film and his latest collaboration with screenwriter Jane Goldman looks likely to put the X-Men franchise back on track after a couple of disappointing outings. This trailer rams up the emotion, the poignancy, and amazing visuals this film is promising to deliver.
It would appear that 2011 will be the summer of the superheroes.
