I've realized that people don't watch as many movies in the theatre as I do which is understandable, but really, you're missing out. This summer is set to be huge. Last year was kind of ridiculously annoying what with all the sequels (Spiderman 3, Fantastic 4, Die Hard, Ultimatum etc) but this year is looking to have the best new blockbusters and the best sequels as well. Aside from a few that don't have set dates yet, here are the movies you need to see this spring and summer...
April:
18 - Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Where in the World is Osama Bin Laden
25 - Harold & Kumar 2: Escape from Guantanamo Bay
May:
2 - Iron Man, Son of Rambow (probably going to be this year's indie hit)
9 - Speed Racer
16 - nothing good, good week to catch up. do not go see the new Narnia movie. please.
23 - Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
30 - Sex and the City: The Movie
June:
6 - You Don't Mess With the Zohan (written by Apatow and Sandler), Mongol
13 - The Incredible Hulk, The Happening (my boy M. Knight's new movie)
20 - Get Smart (if you're really really bored)
27 - Wall-E (besides Batman and Indy, this might be my most anticipated summer movie), Wanted
July:
4 - Hancock (this looks like the first Will Smith movie that might not do so well though)
11 - Hellboy II: The Golden Army (finally!!!)
18 - The Dark Knight (greatest. movie. ever.)
25 - Step Brothers (though I'm rapidly losing faith in Will Ferrel), X-Files Sequel (not yet titled)
August:
1 - The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor (Brendan Fraser adds Jet-Li to the series!), Swing Vote
8 - Pineapple Express (funniest movie of the summer? glad to see Franco back with his old Apatow crew)
15 - Tropic Thunder (probably beats PE for funniest movie. Stiller finally directs again after Zoolander), The International
22 - good catch up weekend
29 - Babylon A.D. (only for huge nerds. Vin Diesel doing sci-fi again? I can't wait...)
September:
Punisher: War Zone, Blindness
October:
Nick and Norah' Infinite Playlist (Michael Cera owns me), The Brothers Bloom (Adrien Brody and Mark Ruffalo is pretty amazing casting for 2 conmen who are after Rachel Weisz), RocknRolla (Guy Ritchie's hopefully back to his Snatch/Locked Stocked roots with this one)
November:
Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince (been waiting forever!!!)
Anyways, I went a little beyond just the summer but you gotta know what to anticipate. The sad thing is that I will actually see every single one of the movies I listed above. Well not sad. Awesome. So if you are bored, you know where to find me. Also check out this little featurette on Wall-E.
I'm out
-M, p, z & shredder
oh ps - Don't go see Smart People. The movie sucked. Sarah Jessica Parker was about the only good one in it, and Thomas Hayden Church. I guess if you have one of those three word names it was fine but Dennis Quaid and Ellen Page were not so funny and or great.
UPDATE: The X-Files got a new title today (the 17th). It's official name is X-Files: I Want To Believe. Supposedly it is from a poster that Mulder had in his office during the show and it is going to deal with Mulder struggling with his faith (in e.t. life).
