Though there's technically still the work week between December 26 and December 30, this is really the final hurrah for Hollywood in 2011. Once this week is done everything hits pause until the calendar turns over and we start the madness again in 2012. For that reason, we'll be seeing trailers for the biggest movie releases of next year pop up over the next few days.

But tonight is dedicated to what is most definitely in the upper echelon of "most anticipated films" for 2012.
