2016 is going to be a big year in a variety of different ways. In the athletic realm, there are the Summer Olympics in Rio in August. In the political arena (and the televisions ads), the presidential election will dominate. In our house, our daughter starting high school will be a big event. And at the movies, well, there is so much to look forward to. 
Here are the trailers of some of the Disney and Pixar films my family can’t wait to see at the movies in 2016, in order of their release dates.
The Finest Hours – January 29, 2016
Zootopia – March 4, 2016
The Jungle Book – April 15, 2016
Captain America: Civil War – May 6, 2016
Alice Through the Looking Glass – May 27, 2016
Finding Dory – June 17, 2016
The BFG – July 1, 2016
There isn’t a trailer out yet for Queen of Katwe, which I’m very excited to see when it comes out this fall for three reasons:
1. I love Mira Nair, director of the film;
2. I love Lupita N’yongo who is starring in the film;
3. I love the story of the film, that of a young girl from Uganda trains to become a world chess champion.
Event just this photo from the film simultaneously tugs at my heart strings and makes me feel a surge of girl power:
Finally, there’s Moana, the anticipated animated film about a teenager from Oceana who sails out on a daring mission to prove herself a master wayfinder and fulfill her ancestors’ unfinished quest that will be released in November.
I’m excited to head to the cinema often this coming year and see these compelling, wonderful stories. Which movies are you most excited about this coming year?
