Summer Movie Scorecard 2011



2011 feels a bit odd in regards to summer movie season.

Maybe it's because with stuff like Sucker Punch, Source Code, Scream 4 and Fast Five already out, it feels like it actually started a few weeks ago, and fatigue is already setting in.

Maybe it's because while there are a ridiculous 25 films that I'm either going to see or might go see, there isn't one that I'm especially jazzed about, like with Star Trek or The Dark Knight in years past. The one I'm most looking forward to is probably Fright Night of all films, because I loved the original and think the remake with David Tennant could be even better.

Or maybe it's just that a lot of this year's films look like they have the potential to really, really suck. Yeah, I'm looking right at you, Green Lantern. Also, last year, the summer movie season started with Iron Man 2. This year: Thor. I don't have a good feeling about this.
