The schedule is just too packed with huge upcoming movies that it almost gives us the chills. It was extremely hard for us to pick only 13 movie releases in 2017, and we can say only one thing – this is shaping up to be another successful year for cinematography.

1. The Lego Batman Movie

This long anticipated animation action adventure is scheduled for February 10, 2017 and if it lives up to our expectations like “The Lego Movie” two years ago did, it is going to be one beautiful and colorful chaos!

The cast includes: Rosario Dawson, Zach Galifianakis, Michael Cera, Mariah Carey, Will Arnett, Jenny Slate…
