* The ''Film/{{Transformers}}'' film series (and the Franchise/{{Transformers}} series in general) has [[AndTheFandomRejoiced/{{Transformers}} its own page]], the main example being the announcement that Creator/PeterCullen would be playing Optimus Prime (hence the trope's [[Administrivia/RenamedTropes original name]], Cue Cullen).

* ''Film/BillAndTed 3'', later given the name ''Film/BillAndTedFaceTheMusic''. Creator/KeanuReeves and Alex Winter will be returning as Bill and Ted, with the original creator/writer duo of Chris Matheson and Ed Solomon as well. To further cement things, in an interview Winter said that the movie will retain the spirit of the originals without giving into "retro cynicism".

* The success of the [[Film/KamenRiderXSuperSentaiSuperHeroTaisen last]] [[Film/KamenRiderXSuperSentaiXSpaceSheriffSuperHeroTaisenZ two]] Super Hero Taisen movies lead to [[Film/HeiseiRiderVsShowaRiderKamenRiderWarsFeaturingSuperSentai a third one]], this time with focus leaning more towards the Riders. Sadly, though, the previous two movies used a lot of Fake Shemps, and this movie puts focus on every primary Rider, so it seems like once again, other than recent ones...wait, [[Series/KamenRiderFaiz Faiz AND Kaixa]]? WITH THE ORIGINAL ACTORS? And hold on... [[spoiler: Keisuke Jin, Series/KamenRiderX, is returning with his original actor?! And... so is [[Series/KamenRider Takeshi Hongo?!]]]]

* Huh. The new ''Film/ChristopherRobin'' film seems interesting enough, featuring the titular character all grown up and encountering his childhood animals again. Well, it might be worth checking out the trailer, and--is that Creator/JimCummings as Pooh again?! And Tigger too!?

** And [[VideoGame/ScottPilgrim the game of the movie]]. [[TheProblemWithLicensedGames Eh...]] I guess Beat 'Em Ups are fun. Maybe... wait, Anamanaguchi is doing the music? And Creator/PaulRobertson is doing the sprites? Holy crap! Please welcome The New Ultimate Jesus [game]!

YMMV cannot be played with.


** Subverted by many ''Nightmare'' fans, however. To them, only Creator/RobertEnglund can properly be Freddy.



* A DoubleSubversion occurred with ''Film/InterviewWithTheVampire''. The initial subversion was when Creator/TomCruise was cast as Lestat, [[QuestionableCasting sparking protests]] from Creator/AnneRice and a fair number of fans. The double subversion? Anne Rice saw the final cut of the movie and publicly took back all of her complaints about the casting, telling her fans they would love it.

* ''Film/QueenOfTheDamned'' movie? Okay...Oh God, ''[[WTHCastingAgency that's]]'' [[WTHCastingAgency Lestat?]] Wait, and he's singing? It sounds great, though...OHMIGOD IT'S THE GUY FROM Music/{{KORN}}! (and in fact the musical score is the only thing that had some impact and good reception in that movie)

* [[Film/{{Scream 4}} A fourth]] ''Film/{{Scream}}'' movie, after how much [[Film/{{Scream 3}} the third one]] sucked? And a decade after the films were last relevant? Puh-leezzz...wait, Kevin Williamson is coming back to write it? Time to mark April 15 on the calendar, this is gonna be ''awesome!'' [[note]]Some explanation -- Williamson wrote the first two ''Scream''s, but not the third. Guess which one is the BlackSheep of the original trilogy.[[/note]]

* When the cast for [[TheFilmOfTheBook the film of]] ''Literature/{{Twilight}}'' was announced, to say that fans went into an uproar would be an understatement. From complaints that [[Creator/RobertPattinson Robert]] "[[Film/HarryPotter Cedric Diggory]]" [[Creator/RobertPattinson Pattinson]] wasn't good looking enough to play Edward, to people whining that Bella was not being played by [[Creator/EmilyBrowning Emily]] [[Film/ASeriesofUnfortunateEvents "Violet Baudelaire"]] [[Creator/EmilyBrowning Browning]], there was backlash to be seen miles away. And then promotional pictures, trailers and behind-the-scenes stories came out, and the fandom collectively melted into puddles of ecstatic tears and anticipation...
