It's good to look at a new year as a fresh beginning -- time to make changes in your life, set goals, better yourself. We think that's great and all, but for us a new year means new movies to look forward to!
2013 is shaping up as the year of the sci-fi flick. From zombies to space to comic book heroes, fan boys have plenty to be excited about this year ... along with some non-nerd movies to keep you entertained.

"Oz: The Great and Powerful," March 8, 2013 -- In this prequel to the legendary "The Wizard of Oz," James Franco stars as magician Oscar Diggs, who will one day end up as "the man behind that curtain." He's joined by Michelle Williams, Mila Kunis and Rachel Weisz as famous witches Glinda, Theodora and Evanora ... and the visuals in the trailer alone blow us away.
"Evil Dead," April 12, 2013 -- Oh man. This remake of the 1981 Sam Raimi cult classic "The Evil Dead" looks seriously effed up ... in the best way! Five friends hole themselves inside a remote cabin (never a good idea) and end up summoning demons from the nearby woods. Terrifying!
WARNING! The trailer below is a red band trailer, meaning it is FOR MATURE AUDIENCES ONLY. There is language and extremely graphic, violent imagery. If you have a weak stomach, don't watch the end. Seriously.
"Oblivion," April 19, 2013 -- Tom Cruise as one of the last remaining, post-apocalypse men on earth? Morgan Freeman as ... some sort of badass?! Oh yeah, we're in.
"Iron Man 3," May 3, 2013 -- Well, this is just a no-brainer.
"The Great Gatsby," May 10, 2013 -- Originally one of our most anticipated pics of 2012, the release was pushed to May ... and we are still so excited! This newest trailer, featuring music by Jay-Z and Kanye West, Florence + the Machine and Filter, epitomizes the sleek Baz Luhrmann style, with dapper Leonardo DiCaprio in the title role. Along with Tobey Maguire, Carey Mulligan, Joel Edgerton and more, this flick looks like a classic in the making.
"Star Trek Into Darkness," May 17, 2013 -- The 2009 "Star Trek" revitalized the sci-fi franchise, and this highly-anticipated sequel looks about 10 times more intense! Returning stars Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Zoe Saldana, John Cho and more are joined by hottie Alice Eve and movie bad guy Benedict Cumberbatch in this dream flick for sci-fi fans.
"The Hangover Part III," May 24, 2013 -- Sci-fi not your thing? How about some laughs? The Wolfpack is back! Zach Galifianakis, Ed Helms, Justin Bartha and Bradley Cooper return as the fearless foursome who will, inevitably, get into some sort of trouble that makes our wildest nights look like Sunday school.
