2015 Disney Movie Slate!!

WooHoo! I am happy to bring you the 2015 slate of Disney movies! This year looks as good as last year. Of course, I am so excited. I am over the moon that in May I finally can see the Avengers: Age of Ultron. OMG, I have been waiting for this movie since the first Avengers movie. I CANNOT wait. I keep watching the first Avengers over and over in anticipation. And also in May, Tomorrowland. This looks pretty good and how can you go wrong with George Clooney!!! 

I am also looking forward to Star Wars: The Force Awakens. I am all about the Force! I cannot even believe there is another Star Wars movie and I am geeking out about it! I am also looking forward to Ant-Man because he is part of the Avengers and I am all over super hero movies! 

McFarland USA looks pretty good as well. I am a sucker for sports movies and Kevin Costner. And any movie directed by Steven Spielberg is always a must watch. He is one of my favorite directors and I love his work!!

And the rest of the movies look amazing as well. 2015 is going to be great!! Happy New Year!!
