2015, the Biggest Year in Movie History?

I know it is two years away but I can't help but think when I flip through the schedule for 2015 that it is shaping up to be the best movie year ever. It's not only sequels, but original films with high concepts. Those films that are getting sequels may gross well over 2 billion dollars. At  least twenty one films may gross over 300 million dollars with nine of those twenty one may be able to make it into the Billion Dollar Club. Her is the list of m twenty one films I think will make it over three hundred million:
1.Star Wars VII- Although the series is aged, the name has a lot brand recognition. Good luck JJ!
2.Avengers 2-The 2012 mega hit gets it's sequel while the iron is hot.
3.Avatar 2- Although it will be five years after the first films release, I think the name and director carry a large name in Hollywood.
4.Jurassic Park IV-Only two years after the re release of the first film  JP4 may end up grossing upwards of 1 billion.
5.Pirates 5- Although I still never loved these films I understand they are enjoyed by others.
6.Finding Dory-We are still waiting on an Incredibles 2 (maybe reserved for new Disney-Pixar schedule 2016-18) but to pass the time a film we thought we would never see a sequel to Finding Nemo.(but since Finding Nemo is Pixar's second highest grossing film, this is a smart idea.)
7.Batman Reboot-After the last installment to the Nolan version of Batman, we are to see the torch passed to a new Batman and director.
8.Mission Impossible V- With the rebooted fourth film released in 2011 it was critically and financially a success.
9. Kung Fu Panda 3- A golden animated franchise. No movies are bad from this series proving a third may be even better.
10.Ant Man-A new Avenger who shrinks and grows, one of the original comic book team.
11.Justice League-When success came for Batman and maybe Man of Steel this year this film will be like the Avengers times 2.
12.Hunger Games Mockingjay part 2-Thee final film is going to be like Harry Potter, Epic.
13.Prometheus 2- After the somewhat successful prequel a parallel story line to the 1970 and 80's film will likely be visually and critically enjoyable.
14. Fantastic Four Reboot- Director of Chronicle ,one of the best unseen movies of 2012, will bring us one of our favorite superhero teams back to reality.
15. Assassin's Creed-A successful game franchise translated onto the big screen by Michael Fassbender and friends.
16.World of Warcraft-An *MMORPG that every this teen from this decade admit they have played will most likely be the next Lord of the Rings.
17.Tin Tin 2- After a run at the French cartoon and graphic novel, Spielberg and Jackson will again try to make another classic out of the motion capture adventure franchise.
18.Charlie Brown-An adaption of the 60's comic strip, Peanuts, will be a brand new movie in 3D animation.
19.Pitch Perfect 2-The singing movie that swept teen girls all over the nation the sequel will probably double in fan size.
20.Popeye-Another cartoon interpretation of the show Popeye the Sailor Man, will follow the spinach loving sailor in 3D.
21.Ratchet and Clank- A series thought to be long gone and in the archives of video game history comes Ratchet and Clank the movie. Based on the exclusive platformer by PlayStation and Sony.

As you can see I am saving my money to see all of these movies.(and yes Pitch Perfect 2 too) I knew these are all sequels or adaptions but there will be more later on this blog.
