With the lowest box office gross in 16 years, 2011 was a year the movie industry would like to forget, despite a handful of mammoth hits. Will 2012 turn things around? Time will tell, but there are no shortage of exciting films landing in theaters in the next 12 months. From action thrillers to rom-coms to ‘tween fare, 2012 has it all! That said, here’s a look at 12 movies THG is particularly excited for this year: Men in Black 3 Trailer 12. Men in Black 3 Admit it, rolled your eyes when you first heard this was being made, but you’re excited. Or you were just fist-pumping from the start. Either way, here they come! 11.

Rock of Ages Tom Cruise proved he’s still got his box office mojo with M:I-4 . Can that translate into success for this hair band-era epic? We’ll be raising our lighters regardless. 4. The Dark Knight Rises Anne Hathaway as Catwoman. Badass Bane’s borderline inaudible voice. Christopher Nolan’s final chapter. The hype and subplots are building by the day. Snow White and the Huntsman Trailer 3. Snow White and the Huntsman Charlize Theron is the reason to see this Kristen Stewart vehicle, though we have high hopes for K-Stew as the title character.
