Entertainment Weekly points to 12 Big Movies for 2009 and provides some inside info and photos, with some familiar genre titles and talent getting prominent play.  Both Dillinger saga Public Enemies and film/comics franchise entry Terminator Salvation feature Christian “Batman” Bale.  X-Men Origins: Wolverine speaks for itself.  Where the Wild Things Are will certainly have its fans in our crowd, especially if director Spike Jonez well-realizes Sendak’s art.  Watchmen, again, needs no explanation, nor does Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.  Pixar’s newest opus will be UP, featuring the voice of Ed Asner.  Likely to cause enormous conversation is The Year One, Harold Ramis’s satirical religious comedy that features two ”hunter-gatherers” (Jack Black and Michael Cera) who stumble into the Old Testament.  And speaking of the old world, the Land of the Lost update arrives as well.
