Best Year For Summer Movies Ever?

[knapplc]

Here's the slate for this year's summer movies:

May - Shrek 3, Pirates of the Caribbean 3 & Spider Man 3
June - Ocean's 13 and Evan Almighty (the sequel to Bruce Almighty) starring Steven Carell
July - Transformers and the next Harry Potter
August - Bourne Ultimatum


That's a pretty cool lineup of movies. Lots of "installment #3" of each movie franchise, too.

Is anyone else geeked up for this summer's movies?

I'm pretty excited... my life is movies and tv

some but not all yeah. pirates and spidey (which i'm seeing sunday in imax.i hope pirates shows in imax as well but i haven't heard yet) are the two i'm most looking forward too along with the unmentioned Knocked Up.i think evan almighty might be a rent but i may go see it if only for carrell.

being a purist my take on transformers is not a good one and if i had my choice it wouldn't get cent one of my money but i know my girl wants to see it and thinks i'm ridiculous for feeling the way i do so i'm sure i'll see it.

Maybe its just me but I am having a really hard time with Topher Grace as Venom and an almost equally hard time with Thomas Haden Church being Sandman. I just cant get past Eric Foreman and Lowell(Wings fans) being Venom and Sandman. I am expecting Red Foreman to come out in the movie at any moment and tell Eric to go sweep the driveway. I was really excited as they were going to have Venom in this one too. I just cant get past the two actors they picked to play the roles. Eh, maybe its just me.

it's definitely not just you... but sometimes actors surprise you in roles... so i'm gonna reserve my judgement til I see it...

I wasn't all that excited to see Tobey Maguire as Spiderman, but he's done pretty good in the role so far. I see what you're saying about Church and Grace, but I'll wait until I see what they do before getting too worried. I guess after seeing how Sam Raimi handled Maguire I'm in a mood to trust him for these two as well.

Tobey never really had that defining role as both Church and Grace both have. I would have much rather seen them go with 2 no names then the 2 they pick. Again this is probably just me. Tobey too is the Peter Parker type in my eyes, a straight and narrow type of guy. I just cant bring myself to have any fear for Venom when its Eric Foreman!

I don't get out to the movies very often but I'm pretty excited about Spidey, Pirates, Potter and Bourne.
