Happy New Year! We hope everyone had a great 2017 and is looking forward to an even more exciting 2018. To that end, we here at Nerd It Here First have compiled a list of the biggest and most hotly anticipated movies currently set to release this year. While some of these release dates might change, as of now, all of these are expected to hit theaters during this calendar year. This year is going to be STACKED! Not only are we getting new additions to franchises like Jurassic World, Fantastic Beasts, Star Wars, and the DC Extended Universe, we're also finally getting the decade-long culmination of the Marvel Cinematic Universe with Avengers: Infinity War! There are also a number of smaller films coming out that are bound to garner some awards interest, such as You Were Never Really Here and Bohemian Rhapsody, among others. Take a look, and let us know which ones you're most excited to see!
