Letsuseournoggin Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 (edited) I can't wait for The Good Dinosaur. I hope that movie is as inventive and creative as Pixar's earliest work. If that comes out mediocre, quality wise, I'll be on life alert. I didn't realize all those were being released that summer. Thanks Kayu.

filmnerdjamie Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 Quality wise this summer has just been "meh".IM3 and STID I enjoyed but none of them were great movies.MOS was a mediocre movie and FF6 was terrible (I'm surprised at the good reviews that movie got).I'm hoping and praying that Pacific Rim and the Wolverine are actually good. Need something to lift my weary soul. Only great film this summer (so far) is This is the End. Liked Man of Steel a lot. Enjoyed Iron Man 3, Fast & Furious 6 (Fast Five was better) and Great Gatsby. World War Z was a zombie movie ashamed of being a zombie movie (The bit where the one scientist name-drops "zombie" and the others groan is the film commenting on itself) and a boring, forgettable one at that. White House Down was a mess; rampant in Emmerichisms (lazy stereotypes, yet another retarded attempt at injecting politics into a mindless actioner, etc.) Tatum and Foxx were great together. When its just them bouncing off each other, it works. But those moments are few and far between. Despicable Me 2 was cute and I laughed plenty but not as good as Despicable Me. Monsters University was middle of the road, bland Pixar; not bad but good either. The Hangover Part III was dead within the first 10 minutes. Fails as a comedy (Only laughed... twice, I think?) and mean-spirited. All for dark, twisted humor but the stuff they did here was just... The Lone Ranger was not the disaster everyone (including myself) pegged it to be. But it was still a bad movie overall. Star Trek Into Darkness is easily the biggest letdown this summer. So much anticipation after Star Trek (2009) and all they did was cut and past Wrath of Khan along with whatever recent popular blockbusters Kurtzman, Orci and Lindelof saw and Abrams half-awake shot it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#ED Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 DM2's Friday could be higher than MU's first Friday, depending on actuals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayumanggi Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 (edited) STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS is the best summer film I've seen this year. MU is the runner-up. Edited July 6, 2013 by kayumanggi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#ED Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 Isn't that in April?I thought we were looking at next summer?It's actually in November. I'm not interested in much for Summer 2014. DOFP? Maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#ED Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 ...No?The chances for an increase are there, but if it follows 2002, we can expect a less than 10% decrease. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolioD1 Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 I'd agree with Jamie, I basically see This Is The End as a comedic masterpiece since it's the hardest I've laughed at a movie in quite some time. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmnerdjamie Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 hmmm.Aren't you a huge Pineapple Express fan? I am. But I thought This is the End looked like the biggest piece of meta/winking at the camera bullshit. Trailers did not sell me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
