This, in that order. Though BvS and Suicide Squad have me cautiously optimistic, MoS was "eh" so WB hasn't given anything to win me over yet and I'm not sold on Luther (and I'm nervous they might be throwing in too much) but I really liked the trailer and the potential is incredible if they get it right. Dr Strange has me nervous as to how they translate the character over, but I'm not too worried about it at least being a good fun movie. Suicide Squad, outside Harley and Joker (and however big a part Batman plays), the cast hasn't really given me reason to be excited, I don't doubt it could, but I look at Will Smith as Deadshot for example and feel nothing. But that probably has to do with the limited time in the trailer which had its focus elsewhere than really showing the squad. Still, really like the feel of it. Civil War definitely feels the safest, and could still potentially be my favorite, but I think it being safe lessens my excitement for it (even though I know it shouldn't, it's just the others are such wild cards). And while it's throwing in a lot similar to how BvS seems, it's at a place where it can do it just fine.
Deadpool would be number 5. I'm admittedly not the biggest Deadpool fan (though I appreciate the character) but there are some stories I really like, and I do enjoy the humor sometimes (even quite enjoyed the game). The movie seems to really nail what it needs to, and I have to give props to Ryan Reynolds for what he has done in all aspects in the road to getting to where we are.
Not really excited for AoA. I'll see it but I'm one of the people who didn't think DOFP was nearly as special as a lot of people seem to think and the look of Apocalypse himself has me puzzled. I mean I saw a quickly done photoshopped version that would be just as easy costume and prosthetically wise, yet it looks infinitely better. Gambit, honestly I kind of forgot that's even a thing that's happening, which shows how much I care.
