I find it pretty humorous how everyone brings up all the "good movies" of 1998 or whatever, considering that probably not even half of them were even released in the "summer" to begin with.
There are always plenty of potential blockbusters every year. Usually 4 or 5 are guaranteed to be hyped from Super Bowl Sunday to the time of their release. They may not be good movies, but that's not how I define a blockbuster. If it got you to get out and see it within the first couple of weeks, along with everyone else, it's a blockbuster. It's why I'm seeing MI:3 this weekend. It's why I'll see X3 at the midnight showing.
Not to mention, it would be hard to beat last year's summer blockbusters. Star Wars, Batman, Wedding Crashers towards the end. And I know I'm forgetting some other good ones. 5/5/2006 11:24:33 PM |

this summer has awesome blockbuster potential.
just today Craig Lindsay, writer for N&O wrote a huge article in the What's Up section about how lame the summer's movies are looking.
This guy really pisses me off sometimes. His reviews suck, and no one ever agrees with him. To make it worse he's rarely on time to any screenings that he reviews movies for anytime. Good thing the first 15 minutes of a movie are hardly ever important.....ahh no! That guy is a total D Bag.
Just this month alone we have: Mission Impossible 3 Poseidon Da Vinci Code X Men
thats just the first month 5/6/2006 4:23:51 AM |

There are some in there that haven't been mentioned
Lady in the Water Flags Of Our Fathers Talladega Nights: The Ballad Of Ricky Bobby World Trade Center Idlewild Superman Returns
wouldn't nec. call all of those blockbusters but certainly anticipated with potential to make a lot of money 5/6/2006 4:29:18 PM |

^ out of those, Superman will be the biggest, easily
you can't doubt Lady in the Water too much, cuz anything by M. Night is going to get people out...
WTC and Idlewild will do decent for themselves, nothing spectacular 5/7/2006 2:10:10 AM |

and what is that supposed to mean
to me that means that people are so desparate
click made as much money as deep impact are you proud of that?
although i'll admit that it is better than i expected, but still far from the golden age late 90's 7/7/2006 1:51:10 PM |

you had deep impact as #1 on your blockbusters from '98 list, I'm just showing that either your definition of "blockbuster" is whack or click was a blockbuster...

if by "looks like I was right" you mean it looks like that statement is right, then..... [no]
imdb:
Quote : | "At $132 million dollars domestically in its opening weekend, this movie smashed the previously believed "unbreakable" record of $114.8 million dollars that Spider-Man held. It is the biggest weekend opener of all time." |
are you completely ignorant or completely retarded or both?
