I would like to see Guillermo del Toro's take on Hellboy- I enjoy the comic so much, and loved del Toro's film 'Cronos'.
I would rather dive head first into a pool of luke warm cat vomit than watch another Rocky film. What kind of sport is it meant to be, battling zimmer frames? Sanatogen throwing? Pointless.
I'm looking forward to the historical epics, and would quite happily watch Colin Farrell canoodle with Jared Leto, except they'll probably have big(gish) hair, which is a complete turn off.
Anything from the creators of 'Independence Day' should be tarred, feathered, burnt at a stake, cut down whilst still alive, ritually disembowelled and garotted.
Similarly Jenny from the Bland and Ben Affect-less.
Coen Brothers a big yes, I've been an avid fan since 'Blood Simple'.
M Night Shyamalan better do something better than the airline puke bag that was 'Signs'. I couldn't get to the exit sign quickly enough after that mistake- worst reaction to a film since 'Stardust Memories' or 'Braveheart'.
Not interested in Gibson's homage to J.C. Holy Roller, in the original Akkadian. Gibson speak with forked tongue.
A film about Garfield. Marginally less interesting than a film about used cat litter.
Kill Bill Vol.2 = No Thrill No. 2.
Perhaps it will be less sprawling and ludicrous than No. 1, but as its still Tarantino, I doubt it. Only director I know who seems to think that visual Tourette's and attention deficit disorder are positive attributes.

My 2004 looking forward to's are:
Spider-man 2, just for the sake of it.
And a few you missed on your poll,
the sequel to Pitch Black: Chronicles of Riddick, to see how they messed that up. I, Robot, to see how they messed up another Asimov.
I'd be interested in seeing Gwen Stefani in a flick, but I don't know if that'll make me go see Aviator.
The Greeks sound interesting.

Spider-Man 2
If I see it it will be because my girlfriend couldn't find anything else at the video store, just like the first one.
Alien vs. Predator
0 + 0 = 0
The Village
Perhaps on video.
Shrek 2
I didn't see this one, but I've been really disappointed with every big family type animated feature after Alladin including Finding Nemo. I'll wait until my nephew or niece wants to rent it.
Jersey Girl
Once bitten, twice shy. Sorry Kevin but I'm waiting for astounding word of mouth before I waste my time again. J-Lo is the latest and lowest blow.
Troy
Obviously an interesting subject, and Brad Pitt is a very good actor. I hope the script doesn't suck.
Kill Bill Vol. 2
I didn't see the first one, and got no positive word of moutrh from people I trust on it yet. Until I see the first one it's like the second one doesn't even exist.
The Incredibles
See too much animated crap above.
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
That sounds like total crap, even if the screenplay is interesting. I like some of these actors, but none of them can carry Edward Norton's jock AFAIC.
The Ladykillers
I'm there, even if it sucks I'll enjoy a few of the jokes.
The Passion of Christ
Only if it's showing while my dad is visiting and I get severely outmaneuvered by the old man.
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkabann
These were ok, and the departure of Christopher Columbus cannot be seen as anything other than a great improvement.
Garfield
I have hated this fat cat, his plagerizer .. er creator and his stupid fat fans since the early 1980s. The only reason I'd attend is to use a flamethrower on the audience.
Club Dread
That looked too juvenile for my tastes.
The Punisher
Oh boy, another comic book movie. And they've all been so good too! 
The Day After Tomorrow
See Molly's comments, or my Garfield preview above.
J. M. Barrie's Neverland
Depp is interesting enough to usually warrant seeing a film that you might not otherwise go for.
The Spongebob Squarepants Movie
Never seen the show. See crappy animation 1 & 2 above.
Alexander
Well, I do greatly admire Val Kilmer as an actor, plus it's frikkin' Alexander man!
The Aviator
I like Cate Blanchett, but not enough to be subjected to DiCapprio or to put another penny into Alec Baldwin's Canadian escape fund.
Rocky VI
I saw the first one at the theatre in (IIRC) 1976. It wasn't my idea and it wasn't very good. The sequels (what I saw in tiny pieces from trailers and channel surfing) looked a good deal worse. Not in a million years.
The Brothers Grimm
Dark fantasy by Terry Gilliam about the famous fable writers.
I always see his (Gilliam's) films. They rock on a number of levels.

With regard to the Baldwin comment: 
With regard to the rest: Come on, fellas, is DiCaprio REALLY that bad? I mean, I hated TITANIC as much as the next human, but I don't extrapolate that to pure Leo-hatred. I've liked the man in GANGS OF NEW YORK, CATCH ME IF YOU CAN, and THE BEACH (which I regard as a solid effort surrounded by a crappy movie). Heck, even in TITANIC he was fine, I just hated the movie as a whole.
Are you sure you all (not just Sikander) aren't just envious of his boyish charm and effete good looks?

I don't hate DiCaprio in everything, but his look and demeanor cut his range down for me quite a bit. Catch me if you can was good for him, Man in the Iron Mask wasn't. Basketball Diaries were good, but I just don't buy him as a man.
Plus the guy has all the 14 year old ladies on his trail. I want those for myself.
