Once again, the new year brings us closer to The Films and TV Shows You've Been Dying to See for Like Forever. If you enjoy sci-fi, fantasy and comic book based entertainment as I do, you already have several must-see flicks and television programs in the pipeline for 2017. With that in mind, I thought I'd go ahead and give a helpful chronological rundown of which geek movie and TV goodness arrives when. Some of these films will be worth the long wait, others you wouldn't watch even if they were on Netflix, but each have their audiences and key target demographics. Start planning your work vacation/sick/personal days accordingly.
