This year for movies is incredible! There’s so many good ones coming out it’s hard to choose what to see!

I recently went and saw The Great Gatsby (who didn’t see that??) when it came out and then I saw The Lone Ranger, World War Z and The Conjuring all in one week!  – Jasmin Maastricht, CC of Her Campus USC AU.

But guess what? The long reign of super good movies this year hasn’t ended just yet.

So we’ve compiled a list here at HC USC AU of movies to look out for in the coming months…

1. First up is the long awaited, The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones -another series of books that is set to take the world by storm just like the Twilight series and Hunger Games series have!

The Mortal Instruments is about a girl whose mum was attacked and taken from their New York City home by a demon, an ordinary teenage girl, Clary Fray, finds out truths about her past and bloodline on her quest to get her back, that changes her entire life. Every single evil thing you could possibly think of is in these books…

In cinemas August 22

2. Second is the second instalment to The Hunger Games series… The Hunger Games: Catching Fire

After winning the 74th Hunger Games in the first movie, Katniss and Peeta return home to District 12 –  the poorest sector in the country of Panem. On the day that Katniss and Peeta are to start a “Victory Tour”, she is visited by President Snow who explains that he is angry with her for breaking the rules at the end of the last Hunger Games. Snow tells Katniss that when she defied the Capitol, she inspired rebellion in the districts and so it begins again…

In Cinemas November 21

3. Next up is Chris Hemsworth’s new movies, RUSH and THOR: The Dark World.

THOR: The Dark World is the second instalment to the first movie, THOR and this time is about Thor’s great love, Jane Foster is taken by the denizens of the dark world of Svartalfheim. Thor sets out on a quest to protect her at all costs. You’ll like it if you’ve seen the fisrt one or if you like Aussie actor, Chris Hemsworth!

RUSH is about the true story of British Formula 1 driver,  James Hunt – a one-time world champion in 1976, racing against Ausrtian three-time world champion, Niki Lauda who survives a car crash on the race track.

4. Next is Leonardo Di Caprio’s new one, The Wolf of Wall Street – yeah he plays another guy in a suit!

The Wolf of Wall Street is based on the true story of Jordan Belfort, from his rise to a wealthy stockbroker living the high life to his fall involving crime, corruption and the federal government.

Hits cinemas in November!

5. Last but not least is the 2013 (third) re-make of 1970’s fillm, Carrie.

For those of you who have never heard of Stephen Kings first ever epically scary story… It is about a Christian womens daughter who discovers she has telekinetic powers which she unleashes on her fellow students and her abusive mother after they just push her way too far.
