So what potential Summer blockbusters are you in 'can't wait' mode for? The one's on my radar, at a glance are:

X-Men: Days of Future Past
Dawn of the Planet of the Apes
Jersey Boys
Lucy

Of course, I still haven't gotten to the theater to see 'Godzilla' - so I'm not exactly caught up on what's coming. What are you guys excited to see this Summer?
 
He's a nutjob, but Cruise's new movie "Edge of Tomorrow" looks pretty awesome. Terminator meets Groundhog Day. Emily Blunt is one of the more beautiful women in Hollywood today also, hubba hubba.

I love The Rock, so I'll be seeing Hercules I'm sure.

Finally, I loved Sin City, so Sin City 2 is a must.

Thanks for posting LL, I saw this the other day but forgot to post.

I've seen a lot of what I wanted to see. Capt America was a lot of fun, I thought X-Men was tremendous. I'd like to see Godzilla in the theaters because I don't think it will be the same at home and I doubt I'll rent it because of that. Looking forward to How to Train Your Dragon 2 with the kids, we all loved the first one.

This is Where I Leave You is in the late Summer (or Fall, not sure), the book was hysterical and moving so I'm sure I will see that. Good cast too.
 
A Dame to Kill For is finally coming out? That's a must see - been waiting years for the 2nd Sin City.

This weekend; going for A Million Ways to Die in the West. Not a big Western fan but it looks hilarious.

I dunno... Ted was literally the worst movie I've ever seen, and I'm afraid it will be similar. I'll probably save that one for amazon prime. :)

Godzilla in 3D IMAX was epic. For the record. :)

Looking forward to the Cruise blow 'em up as well as the space saga Interstellar.

Prime is sweet. Never saw Ted so I got one coming...At least I never got sucked down by Gravity...
 
I need to see Godzilla.

I cannot wait for 22 Jump Street to come out in a couple weeks!!! :laugh:
 
A million ways to die looks hysterical. You just have to be able to enjoy raunchy comedies and not act like you're better than it.

I want to see guardians of the galaxy, too. Just because I'm a comic fan
 
Did catch 'A Million Ways to Die in the West' - myself and girl friend thought it was pretty funny; granted it wouldn't be for everyone. Nothing subtle in the humor; maybe not a laugh a minute but pretty much a joke a minute.

Next up; "Edge of Tomorrow" - might get to that one today.
They got it in 3D also but I've never really been that impressed with it. Doesn't seem like you get that much of a dramatic effect other than a spot here and there. Glasses aren't real comfortable so maybe that's part of it.

Did catch it - surprised, theater was packed after showing for the last two weeks. Well, out here that's unusual. Considering the storyline; not as much repeated stuff as one might think. Good SciFi/Actioner for those so inclined to that sort.

Guardians of the Galaxy. All the rest is gravy. :)

I saw Edge of Tomorrow a few weeks ago. It was surprisingly good. Emily Blunt is a better actress than she gets credit for.

You all have too much time on your hands!!!!

Actually, I have an autistic 15 year old son whose obsession is movies. :) Old movies are all he buys with his money and new movies are all he talks about. He has, literally, every DVD released this decade (sometimes two or more versions if theres a Special Edition or Target Exclusive) and I have seen, literally, every PG-13 and below movie on opening weekend over these past five years or so.

This past weekend my wife took him to see The Cancer Movie (thank you wife) on Saturday whilst I got How to Train Yor Dragon 2 on Sunday. Next up, Transformers 4 a week from Saturday (I mercifully have this weekend off). Earth to Echo the weekend after that, Planet of The Apes after that. I see EVERYTHING.

Every so often, we get to a movie I'm actually interested in. That would be Guardians of the Galaxy in August. As I said, if anything between now and then doesn't suck, its gravy. :)

Certainly looks entertaining and action-packed win. Not a horror movie version, but might be fun.

I am always behind the curve on movie 'sensations', but Brother Om and I and some of our family went to see 'Jersey Boys' this week. I had not seen the musical but it is a very entertaining couple of hours. Not a feel good movie as you might think but definitely worth seeing - and you can tell it's a broadway musical brought to film as it very much as that feel to it.
 
Yeah any more I like horror movies that at least try to put a historical sense to it. Fictional or not that one seems to be worth 2 hours of your time.

Then again I was stoked for 'Noah' as well and it kinda flopped at the box office.

I saw edge of tomorrow the other night and really enjoyed it. Hadn't heard anything about it just needed a little veg time and showed up. Emily blunt has some range, liked her in it. Pleasantly surprised in enjoying a Tom cruise movie that's days.

If you are "resourceful" enough Expendables 3 is available in DVD quality.
