Must-see movies this summer

[fishuhalik]

Total Recall

The Dark Knight Rises

The Expendables 2

GI Joe 2

What's some more? There isn't much else to do in Williston when I get a couple hours off. Any more that you all can't wait to see?

[mainbutter]

The Avengers is already out, but it's supposed to be a must-see. I'm hoping to see it before it's out of theaters.

I'm excited for Safety Not Guaranteed. The internet nerd in me from my YTMND days thinks this is the most brilliant indie movie ever, and without seeing it yet I'm voting it for best picture of the year.

[DARK30]

I don't really see anything I can't wait for on dvd....well maybe the new Bourne movie?...could there even be a Bourne movie without Bourne?

Spiderman? Maybe they should have the Green Lantern in it..."thpiderman get behind me..no wait, let me get behind you"

Lincoln hunting vampires?

The Hobbit is comming.

[fishuhalik]

Forgot to mention Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter in there. The book was...interesting. Can't wait for the movie!

And mainbutter, i definitely recommend seeing the Avengers in the theater asap. Hulk SMASH!!!

[fishuhalik]

And I'm sure I'll see the new spidey, but I just can't get too excited about a movie that I just saw a couple years ago.

[DARK30]

I might convince myself to see Prometheus on the big screen tho....and only if I can sit in a comfortable seat.

[fishuhalik]

Dark, that was definitely on the list, but sadly I've heard really bad reviews about it. I'm sure I'll still see it as I love the Alien series, but I'm not super excited about it any more

[aanderud]

The only movie of all the ones I've seen on your list or on TV or otherwise that is making me excited is that dark night rises. I'm pretty stoked about it. I wouldn't mind seeing avengers but for some reason I'm thinking a DVD rental will do it for me.

I wasn't impressed one bit with Avengers.

The Cabin in the woods was surprisingly good.

Moonrise king dom looks interesting.

Still waiting for a Rounders 2...

So far, Act of valor is the best DVD I've seen all summer. Epic movie and very realistic scenario.

[McGurk]

Looking forward to Dark Knight Rises and The first part of the Hobbit. Saw the Avengers and enjoyed it. An arguement could be made for Prometheus and Bourne Legacy, but most of the rest of them are redbox-fodder at best.

I wonder if this movie will be our next "Black Hawk Down" ie: middle east will watch the movie and use the tactics to their advantage.. i mean they did use real soldiers to get a more "realistic" movie.. Saddam studied Black Hawk Down quite a bit to learn a good deal about the us military

On a lighter note, we took the kids to the nex Pixar movie Brave. I would agree that it is one of the better Disney Pixar films in years. We were stuck seeing it in 3D, though, and I don't think that was worth the extra $2.50.

Saw commercials for Savages last night, peeked my interest at least. A friend saw Abraham Lincoln Vampire hunter and said it was entertaining so I may take a flyer on that one

[DarthBaiter]

Ted!!

[mrklean]

I was told ted is a great movie i plan to see that

[jmd1]

they said savages is quite violent and on the edge of the seat action. I don't mind violence but live in an area where the cartel work each day so not sure that i want to see a movie about it. Plus more than 3 people in a theater is a crowd to me and i don't care for crowds.

[rushing]

I wanted to see Prometheus but I kept putting it off and when I got around to going it was already out of the local theater. Moonrise Ransom I am sure I will see but not sure if its theater worthy.

[itchmesir]

Most people I've talked to said Prometheus was a horrible movie..

Went and saw Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter.. was a good movie overall.. decent amount of gore and action.. I liked how they intertwined all these historical figures into the story line

[RawHog]

Prometheus is sick, Petergriffin-teddybear is whack.

I don't think I'd call it great, but overall it was pretty funny.

[Born2Fish]

I thought Ted was a really decent movie. If you are even a SMALL fan of Family Guy you will enjoy the carp out of this movie.

[Wabamskee]

Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter sounds hilarious! (no cable = no previews)

Not one star is coming off this flag...except this nice shiny silver throwing star -- vamps!!!!!

[fishuhalik]

Ted was awesome, definitely recommend seeing it. I'm sorry, but if a teddy bear doing, um, crude things doesn't make you laugh, you must be deadp

[DTro]

I really enjoyed Savages. A cross between no country for old men, alpha dogs, and blow.
