Which of these major to relatively major films premiering at Cannes are you most excited to see (the straight-up arthouse selection comes tomorow)?

I'm excited to see if the Ridley Scott and Russell Crowe combo will produce another great movie, so for me, it'll be Robin Hood.

You know what? As overrated as I think Gladiator is, I don't think they've produced one bad film together. Gladiator, American Gangster, even A Good Year is good for what it is. Made me want to go to Europe anyway.

EDIT: Haha, oh fuck. Forgot about Body of Lies. Forget what I just said. LORD.

Yeah, I kind of liked A Good Year, to be honest. But yeah, Body of Lies is a pile of shit.

A Good Year was like a really pretty photobook of France. Not to mention Marion Cotillard looking unbelievable.

After Babel, I lost A LOT of faith in Inarritu.

I'm excited to see what Leigh and Frears are up to, but I know nothing about most of these films. I have high hopes for Iñárritu, too, but then again, I liked Babel, so there is that...

No interest at all in Robin Hood. Didn't like Gladiator much, either.

All those guys have directed duds so I'll wait and see. Not really that excited for any of them.

Loved all the fight scenes in Gladiator and that's all i am going to see Robin Hood for. The crazy battle scenes. Read on /film that there's already talks of a sequel for Robin Hood depending on how well this one does the first week its in theatres. I'm interested in Woody Allen's movie too.

I wouldn't be shocked if it's fantastic. They moved it from a spring to fall release date and managed to get it accepted at Cannes (as the closing film, no less). That does not usually signal a bad film.
