Summer movies I actually want to see
I was reading The AV Club’s preview of the upcoming summer movies (and why they’ll kill the summer blockbuster model) here and also here, and it struck me that for the first time in several years there are actually several movies I want to see this summer.
I mean, just to start with, there’s Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull, and any Indy movie is one worth watching at least once. Then there’s The Dark Knight, and if Batman Begins was anything to go by, and it was, it will kickass. And there’s Get Smart. One of my favorite Nick at Nite series, stars Steve Carell and Anne Hathaway. Steve Carrell is awesome and no matter how much other people complain about her, I really love Anne Hathaway and I think she’s got the right look, at least, for 99. It’s a movie that’s destined to be fun at least.
Of course, this summer is also bringing us The Love Guru, or Mike Myers’ latest attempt to make me commit murder, so it’s not all great.
