With 2016 behind us, it’s time to explore the slate of exciting movies opening in theaters over the next 12 months – some that we’ve waited a very long time for and can’t wait to see! There's a new Star Wars, more high profile superhero movies than ever before, several long-awaited adaptations and sequels, and much, much more making up our list of the most anticipated movies of 2017.

Some interesting quick observations: Dwayne Johnson's name keeps popping up, there are six hotly anticipated movies in March, before the traditional summer blockbuster season even begins, and there are more DC branded and Marvel Studios movies in theaters than any other year.

How the list was generated: Five members of the Screen Rant team listed their top 30 movies currently confirmed for wide theatrical release in 2017 at the time of writing (end of 2016) and is based on their interests at that time. Films listed by each staffer get points for being listed in their personal top 30 and additional points for where they were ranked. The scores by movie for all participants were tallied up to provide us the below listed ranking.

Keep in mind, most of these films have barely begun marketing at the time of publication and the starting list began at 100. This is a tally of five separate lists and no doubt yours will be different so before you ask "why is or isn't _____ on this list?!" you know why. Share your most anticipated movies in the comments so we can compare! And here's last year's list of our 30 most anticipated movies of 2016.

30. Jumanji

Most Anticipated 2017 Movies - 30. Jumanji

Release Date: December 22, 2017

Director: Jake Kasdan

Cast: Dwayne Johnson, Kevin Hart, Karen Gillan, Jack Black, Alex Wolff, Bobby Cannavale, Nick Jonas, Rhys Darby, Tim Matheson

Studios: Columbia Pictures, Sony

While it keeps the same title as the Robin Williams classic from the '90s, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson promises that the 2017 version is not a reboot, and could very well be a sequel. Reports indicate the new Jumanji follows four kids who find an old video game console and get sucked into the game to find a precious jewel, and their in-game Avatars are the big name celebs we know (Johnson, Hart, Gillan, and Black). This might be the ultimate family movie for holidays 2017, and the studio has so much confidence in it that it's going up against Star Wars: Episode VIII.

29. King Arthur: Legend of the Sword

Most Anticipated 2017 Movies - 29. King Arthur

Release Date: May 12, 2017

Studios: Safehouse Pictures, Warner Bros.

A highly stylized retelling of the classic King Arthur story, Guy Ritchie is back in the director's chair for this epic period piece starring Charlie Hunnam (Sons of Anarchy, Pacific Rim) and Ritchie regular, Jude Law. This one's been in development a while and the trailer mixes some interesting genres but this director and this cast rarely disappoints so we're in for this fantastic period epic - one of few coming in 2017.

28. Baywatch

Most Anticipated 2017 Movies - 28. Baywatch

Release Date: May 26, 2017

Director: Seth Gordon

Cast: Dwayne Johnson, Zac Efron, Priyanka Chopra, Alexandra Daddario, Kelly Rohrbach, Ilfenesh Hadera, Jon Bass, Hannibal Buress, David Hasselhoff

Baywatch brings back the television phenomenon of the '90s and puts it on the big screen with a story that follows devoted lifeguard Mitch Buchannon (Johnson) as he butts heads with a brash new recruit (Efron). Together, they uncover a local criminal plot that threatens the future of the Bay. The marketing isn't afraid to dig into the over-the-top nature of the supermodel, cleavage-focused cast, but with these characters, we can expect a big and fun adventure.

27. Kingsman: The Golden Circle

Most Anticipated 2017 Movies - 27. Kingsman Golden Circle

Release Date: October 6, 2017

Director: Matthew Vaughn

Cast: Taron Egerton, Colin Firth, Mark Strong, Channing Tatum, Jeff Bridges, Julianne Moore, Pedro Pascal, Halle Berry, Vinnie Jones, Sophie Cookson, Elton John

Studios: Marv Films, Fox

Eggsy (Egerton), Merlin (Strong) and Roxy (Sophie Cookson ) head to the United States to join forces with Statesman, Kingsman's American counterpart, after the HQ is destroyed by Poppy (Moore), a nefarious criminal mastermind. We suspect this American heavy plot is where Tatum, Bridges, and Berry all show up and we couldn't be more excited to see a followup to the surprise hit that director Matthew Vaughn left the X-Men franchise for. It was worth it.

26. The Mummy

Most Anticipated 2017 Movies - 26. The Mummy

Release Date: June 9, 2017

From the sweeping sands of the Middle East through hidden labyrinths under modern-day London, The Mummy brings a surprising intensity and balance of wonder and thrills in an imaginative new take that ushers in a new world of gods and monsters. The Mummy aims to launch a shared cinematic Monsters universe for Universal Pictures that sadly does not include Dracula Untold.

Optimus Prime is back, Josh Duhamel is back, Megatron is back, and Michael Bay is back. Transformers 5 (Transformers: The Last Knight) is aimed to be a continuation of the mega Hasbro movie franchise but also a fresh start for newcomers that will launch - you guessed it - a share cinematic universe Marvel style) with the first spinoff coming in 2018 based on Bumblebee.

A team of astronauts aboard a space station find themselves alone after a scientific experiment causes Earth to disappear. When a space shuttle appears, the space station crew must fight for survival following their horrible discovery. This intriguing sci-fi movie seemingly wasn't intended to be a Cloverfield movie but it certainly is one now, potentially converted into one similar to how Dan Trachtenberg's 10 Cloverfield Lane was made into a successful Cloverfield anthology spinoff in 2016. Either way, Cloverfield or not, we're psyched about this sci-fi space thriller from J.J. Abrams' Bad Robot production company.

But after being coerced into working for a crime boss, he must face the music when a doomed heist threatens his life, love and freedom. The style of the movie however, is challenging to put into words since all the film's action is timed with the beat of the music the protagonist (Elgort) is listening to, even the windshield wipes of the car he drives. There are multiple heists in the film with over-the-top characters, each with their own color of clothing. We visited the Atlanta set of Baby Driver so stay tuned for more on this one in the coming months on Screen Rant.

1. Star Wars: Episode VIII

Most Anticipated 2017 Movies - 1. Star Wars 8

Release Date: December 15, 2017

Director: Rian Johnson

Cast: Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, Adam Driver, Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, Domhnall Gleeson, Andy Serkis, Lupita Nyong'o, Laura Dern, Billie Lourd, Joonas Suotamo, Peter Mayhew, Gwendoline Christie, Benicio Del Toro, Warwick Davis, Anthony Daniels

Studios: Lucasfilm, Disney

A film which needs no marketing and one that doesn't even have a title yet is easily the most anticipate film of 2017. Director Rian Johnson picks up the story of young Rey, Fin, and Poe as they help the Resistance continue to thwart the Nazi-esque plans of The First Order as Republic continues to doubt the existence of giant spherical super weapons. So long as Star Wars 8 avoids an intro on a snow planet with large walkers, then the second installment of the third Star Wars trilogy should be something special. And Luke Skywalker will speak!
