Yep. Worst movie list I've ever read. Didn't think 2013 could be worse than 2012 but I was wrong.
Surprised you didn't rip on the Oldboy remake. I'll definitely avoid that film at all costs. Only things on the list I found interesting were Prisoners and Monuments Men. The rest were mostly remakes or sequels or super hero shit which I'm getting really weary of at this point.
Of course this probably explains why the majority of the films I watch are either foreign or older films.

Re: 25 Most Anticipated movies of 2013
I wanna see the Oz movie. 3 hot women who can act in leading roles, classic characters another chapter in a classic story. My only complaint from the trailer is it looks a bit Tim Burtonish
I agree. A little too much like the recent Alice film. Hoping Raimi brings some flavor to the story and characters this time around. Love the cast that has been chosen.

They reached the bottom years ago, but somehow they always seem to find an even deeper crack.
Spike Lee doing an Oldboy remake is just taking the piss. To think that the Departed was lauded with awards is really hilarious. Not only is it a lesser film than the original (by quite a bit) but to praise it as a great achievement at the Oscars when you essentially copied another dude's film, going as far as lifting entire scenes, well the joke is certainly on America. Imagine if they did an almost verbatim remake of Goodfellas and it went on to win a bunch of Chinese Oscars.
Wonder what Scorsese would say back in 1975 if you told him that his first Oscar would be for copying the film of a guy who back then wasn't even out of middle school.
But if one of America's greatest directors can't do it I'm sure Spike Lee can.
