It's like Power Rangers, but with a James Bond theme, and a big ass budget. I'm stoked.

In all honesty, I will probably agree with this for the first time, bypassing my usual love of the summer blockbusters. The only one I will like is Star Trek, Terminator: Salvation will probably disappoint, and those other two unmentionables will probably make me blind and deaf from how fucking goddamn horrible they will be.

Bloodwake, I hear that you won't be able to afford to see those movies. And, because you can't afford food or clean water, you'll likely suffer hearing loss and eye damage well before the summer-movie season anyway.

Terminator 4 > Star Trek

Agreed. Just can't see Star Trek being better, but then I never liked Trek anywhere near as much as The Terminator.

Speaking of which, this guy's edits are so damn awesome.

I actually am psyched to see Public Enemies, Drag me to Hell, Bruno, Inglorious Basterds, Final Destination: Death Trip 3D (shit yeah), and The Hurt Locker.

will be awesome.

clothedmacuser · « **Reply #19 on:** May 01, 2009, 07:58:45 AM »

You put Transformers 2 in the running? And I know you saw Transformers 1. Why?

Why? Why? Why? Why? Why?

Anyway, I'm glad The Hurt Locker was posted. It looks terribly suspenseful and it's got Jeremy Renner who is the best new actor of this decade.
I also am excited to see the ending of Public Enemies.

Are you people really so sure that Terminator won't be worse than Transformers 2? I'd take Transformers 1 over Charlie's Angels 2.

I have faith that one of the brothers Nolan salvaged a potential trainwreck with his re-writes.

I'm sorry, I couldn't understand you. You really ought to take your tongue out of JJ Abrams' anus if you're going to try to speak.

I don't llke getting hung up on production issues, I'd rather enjoy a movie than geek out and get smug about what flaws I'm able to point out...but goddamn I just watched the GIJOE trailer and was floored by how shitty the CGI was...holy crap

Diunx · « **Reply #34 on:** May 02, 2009, 11:56:47 AM »

I'm gonna say it again Green Lantern First Flight will be the best action movie of the summer, they should make it 2 hours long and release it in the theaters.

Tucah · « **Reply #35 on:** May 02, 2009, 11:58:27 AM »

My predictions:

Terminator>Star Trek>Transformers 2>>>>>G.I. Joe>Wolverine

What a shitty summer for movies. I think the only two movies I'm genuinely excited to see are Up and Funny People.

WrikaWrek · « **Reply #36 on:** May 02, 2009, 12:09:00 PM »

A summer with a big ass Star Trek, a post apocalyptic Terminator, Bayformers the sequel, a Stephen Summers B movie, a Tom Hanks movie, Brothers Bloom, a Pixar Movie, a Sam Raimi movie, a Tony Scott movie, a Michael Mann movie, Bruno, comedies, the Hurt Locker (which is awesome), an harry Potter movie, a Quentin Tarantino movie....

I mean, i don't know what you search for in summer season, but it's impossible to look at it and anticipate a shitty summer for "Summer movies", unless you hate summer movies period.

Diunx · « **Reply #37 on:** May 02, 2009, 12:19:28 PM »

Its a shitty summer because all the big action summer blockbusters will suck, all the other movies you listed are just movies being released in the summer.

If we go by EB "standards", there wasn't a last time a summer action blockbuster did not suck....

Tucah · « **Reply #39 on:** May 02, 2009, 12:24:09 PM »

I just wanted a summer with tentpoles I was actually looking forward too. Last summer had Iron Man, TDK, Indy 4 and Hellboy 2. Sure, half of those ended up disappointing, but I was really excited for all of them coming into the summer months. This summer doesn't have any big event movie that I want to see as much as any of those movies - sure, Star Trek looks great, but I was never a fan of the franchise. I'm a huge Terminator fan, but McG doesn't exactly inspire confidence in the film. T2/GI Joe/Wolvy are all movies where I wanted to see them solely because they're big summer action flicks, I have no previous investment in their franchises.

Still, you're right that there are a shitload of other great movies coming out - I totally forgot about Bruno, Hurt Locker looks pretty cool and Inglorious Basterds has the potential for greatness.

Human Snorenado · « **Reply #40 on:** May 02, 2009, 12:28:14 PM »

I'm calling it now- Bruno will end up being the best movie of the summer, if not of the year. I mean, how can you go wrong with a movie that once upon a time had the subtitle "Delicious Journeys Through America for the Purpose of Making Heterosexual Males Visibly Uncomfortable in the Presence of a Gay Foreigner in a Mesh T-Shirt" and has him trying to make out with Ron Paul?

I have absolutely no doubt this will end up being true.
