The biggest summer ever!

I could be wrong, but I believe that this summer is the single largest movie summer ever.

There’s Spider-Man 3, Pirates 3, Shrek 3, Harry Potter 5, Fantastic Four 2, Borne Ultimatum (Borne Identity 3), Rush Hour 3, plus, newcomers that should prove popular like, Transformers, The Simpson’s Movie and Ratatouille. Add in themilking-a-concept-for-all-it’s-worth movies like Ocean’s 13, Die Hard 4, Evan Almighty (aka “Bruce Almighty 2 without Jim Carrey”), Hostel 2 (blech!) and Surf’s Up (surfing penguins. Whoo.), and you’ve got one full summer.

And that’s not to mention several other sequels I’d rather not fry your brain by alerting you to their very existence. Okay, I’ll do one… (more…)
