The Last Mimzy is considered indie? Looks fairly mainstream to me, but who knows.

Indie is such a loose term, very few of the breakout ones are true independent films in my mind.

In the Valley of Elah, from Haggis, starring Tommy Lee Jones and Charlize Theron
Haggis again?
Paul T. Anderson has another film this year, There Will Be Blood, with Daniel Day-Lewis.
Noah Baumbach, The Squid and the Whale's director, has Margot at the Wedding, starring Nicole Kidman. Nicole Kidman is also doing a film with Oliver Hirschbiegel, Downfall's director, but the latest buzz on that wasn't good.
And there is I'm Not There, directed by Todd Haynes and starring Christian Bale, Cate Blanchett, and Adrien Brody. _________________Recent watched movies: American Hustle - B+ Inside Llewyn Davis - B Before Midnight - A 12 Years a Slave - A- The Hunger Games: Catching Fire - A- My thoughts on box office

See, now here is my #1 film I'm looking forward to now. Release in Germany (according to IMDB) in Feb 2008 could mean an Oscar season run for PTA.
Paul Dano (teen boy from LMS) and Ciarán Hinds are in it too! wow.

It's hard to tell at this point if Marriage (which I've mentioned elsewhere, '50s set thriller/noir/drama-ish thing starring Chris Cooper, Pierce Brosnan, Rachel McAdams and Patricia Clarkson) is a studio release or more independent, but I'm leaning towards the latter. It's supposed to come out in the summer and I heard the director say something about Cannes.

Anyone seen the trailer for The Namesake yet? Can't tell if it looks good or cheesy, and I have to admit I have not seen much of Mira Nair's stuff.

I can't wait until Mira Nair directs "Gangsta M.D." starring Chris Tucker as a thug's elaborate cover-up comes undone, forcing him to try to become the man he's pretended to be all along.
If you think I'm fucking kidding then BEHOLD: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0438049/
She should have directed Harry Potter 5, which she was offered.

What about Eastern Promises? It's Cronenberg's next, with Viggo, Naomi Watts, and Vincent Cassell. Not entirely postive about the plotline, but I guess it revolves around Russian mobsters or something.
