Superman Returns (2006)
Star Trek XI (2007)
Since science fiction movies have come up recently, I decided to see what all's coming up. There must be something original coming. Right? Wrong. I'll see lots of these, but not an original title in the bunch.

Much of the following list is based on information from IMDB and actuacine.net.

The Net 2 (2006)
King Kong (2005)
X-Men 3 (2006)
Fantastic Four (2005)
Spiderman 3 (2007)
Star Wars III (2005)
Hitchhikers Guide (2005)
War of the Worlds (2005)
Batman Begins (2005)
Indian Jones 4 (2005)
Red Dwarf (2005)
XXX 2 (2005)
X-Files 2 (2005)
Doom (2005, based on video game?)
Zathura (2005, a sci-fi version of Jumanji, based on book by same author)
Mission Impossible 3 (2006)
Juraissic Park 4
Aliens 5
Mad Max 5
Underworld 2 (2005)
Many more superhero films (Iron Man, Wolverine, Submariner, Batman vs. Superman, Silver Surfer, Ghost Rider, Luke Cage)

I also saw that a new Herbie the Love Bug is coming out, and a new Bad News Bears, both this year.

nearly forgot about Minority Report, 5th Element, and I'm sure others, but they're still few and far between.

and actually minority report brings up an interesting thing -- even original movies are starting to look "the same". i would be, at first glance at the trailers (as in, not really being able to see detail), hard pressed to tell the difference between minority report and i robot. both follow that same shimmering white, silver, and blue color scheme for most of their effects and "worlds" in the backgrounds.

now, that may be realistic to the direction that human architecture is going, but its striking how similar they are at times.
