The summer movie season officially kicks off tomorrow with Iron Man 2. On one hand, this is obviously an exciting time, as Hollywood is nice enough to bunch all the movies people really want to see in one convenient cluster. I mean, who wants to go see movies in February when it's cold and dreary outside, when you could blow a couple of hours of beautiful weekend weather almost every weekend for three months straight?
On the other hand, I'm a little worried this year. A couple of months ago, I was really looking forward to seeing Kick-Ass. When the time came...I just couldn't work up the enthusiasm. Same with The Losers. Granted, in both those cases, I'd recently read the comics they were based on, so maybe I didn't feel like I needed to see the film versions. Still, it doesn't bode well for this being a busy movie summer for me. Never mind the "Might See" list, a few of the films on the "Definitely Seeing" list are starting to look like good Netflix candidates.

Kick-Ass ruled supremely. You should go see if it you haven't yet. And I'm seeing Iron Man Friday night at the Uptown. I think it will be horrible...but I'm still excited.
