The Five Things I'm most excited to see in the film world in 2011

With 2011 already upon us, many rumors and early information about projects for the year are circulating. Here's the five things I'll be most anxious to see.

1. The Wolverine
Following up on a stunning directorial feat in 2010's Black Swan, Darren Aronofsky is signed to direct this film about the X-Men's Wolverine visiting Japan.

2. The Tree of Life
Terrence Malick, director of Days of Heaven, and The Thin Red Line, has signed prolific actors Sean Penn and Brad Pitt to work on his latest film, a drama about relationships between members of a 1950s American family.

3. Criterion Collection Releases
The Criterion Collection is one of the finest DVD releasing companies with films like Seven Samurai, The Rules of the Game, and Breathless in their collection. 2011 looks to be a great year for them, with possible releases like Broadcast News, Kiss Me Deadly, Carlos, and Everything you wanted to know about sex but were afraid to ask.

4. The Hangover 2
This follow up to the funniest film of 2009 should prove to be equally hilarious.

5. Jack and Jill
Adam Sandler is sharing the screen with legend Al Pacino in this new comedy. The dynamic between the two should be interesting to say the least.
