Most Anticipated Everything of 2016
Plans and projections for 2016 are filled to the brim with movies, music, video games and books we can’t wait to get our hands on. From the Zoolander sequel to Assassins Creed, from the LCD Soundsystem reunion to Legend of Zelda for the Wii U, we are stoked for all the new year has to offer. We spoke with a few of our music, electronics and book buyers to learn about the Bookmans team’s most anticipated everything of 2016. These are our top picks for future faves in 2016.
Video Games–Dishonored 2
This is the sequel to the stealth action adventure game Dishonored release in 2012. Bookmans Electronics Buyer, Charity, is a big fan of Bethesda Softworks and is especially excited to play this game on her coveted Xbox One. Dishonored 2 makes its debut this year, however a date has not yet been released to the public.
Movies–Captain America: Civil War
This is a difficult selection. Are we more excited for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice or Marvel’s adaptation of the classic comic series Civil War? Though both will be amazing, our excitement for Captain America: Civil War outweighs its competition. Cap’s latest turn on the big screen hits theaters May 6.
Music–Radiohead
This band has a history of setting up a new company prior to releasing a new album. With newly established Dawn of Chorus LLP, it’s safe to say a new Radiohead album is a possibility. Plus the band reportedly has been working on new material since September 2014 and the release of their version of the Bond theme song for Spectre on Christmas day further fuel the rumors of a new LP. Radiohead’s supposed upcoming album is still unconfirmed but we are hopeful we will see the new album drop any day now.
Books–The Swans of Fifth Avenue by Melanie Benjamin
From the best-selling author of The Aviators Wife, The Swans of Fifth Avenue tells the story of the friendship between socialite Babe Paley and the literary genius Truman Capote. The Swans of Fifth Avenue is set for release on January 26.
