Which do you think is the best? I'd have to say Spider-Man 3, but all I've seen is that and Pirates.

Poll
Which of the following movies do you think is the best summer blockbuster that you have seen or are looking forward to?

I'm not after being dissapointed by Harry Potter's last film Goblet of Fire.

I'm still seeing Order of the Phoenix, though; hopefully it will be better.


I loved GoF.

F4: rise of the silver surfer was a HUGE let down by the way.

I saw shrek 3 and spiderman 3 and was dissapointed with both. Shrek 3 just seemed like the same less funny jokes and same storyline played over again and spiderman 3.. well i dunno, i just found myself laughing at how lame toby maguire looked trying to be "evil". But im looking forward to seeing pirates 3.. its out so ill just have to get over to the movie theatre sometime

Really, the fact of the matter is, Hollywood has forgotten on the by and large how to create original content. Personally, I am getting tired of sequels, so movies that are original unto themselves (not nessaceraly the franchise, i.e. Transformers) are greeted with much hospitality in my book.

Then again, this may just be the alcohol speaking...

Spider-man did better than it did on the opening weekend. It broke the record Dead Man's Chest held for best opening weekend, and At World's End failed to take it back. Whether it will continue to to better or not, who knows, but it held it's record.


I know I mean the Monday after it came out, it seemed like nearly everyone had seen it (including myself).

I highly doubt that Spierman will beat out Pirates at the boxoffice. But Transformers just might have a shot at it. As Buzz previously stated, there are alot of adults now with kids that want to pass the "tourch" along.

Die hard is a close one as well. But I think either Pirates or Transformers take the prize this summer.

Come on now, every Generation X boy wanted to be Luke Skywalker. Is it because he was a whiney farm boy from some backwater hack planet? No, it's because he was a FREAKING JEDI. He could block lasers with his lightsaber. He could levitate droids & rocks & crap with his mind. Come on, he choked two pig dudes with just a simple gesture. He cut off Darth Vader's hand and kicked him down a flight of stairs. He got his @$$ zapped by lightning from the geezer Emperor, stood up and said "s'at all you got b!tc#??"

Honestly, I don't know. I think either Transformers or HP will be the biggest film this summer, but I'm leaning towards HP. A lot of the fans of Transformers aren't the generations of kids now, who have grown up with HP. It'll be close.

Ah but the fans of Transformers are adults who have kids who will want to take their kids to see these movies.

Very true, you have a point there. Well, either way, I'm thinking it's going to be one of those two movies.

People seem to really be getting behind Transformers. I dunno, man, that's tough to do. Michael Bay is just so awful, I absulutely hate him.

Shrek the third for me, even if it starts to follow the trend of sequels being lower quality than its predecessors. Still the best I've seen so far, all in my opinion of course.

I'm going F4 though I obviously haven't seen it. Oh, and where is Harry Potter on this list? lol, it will be huge (whether you're a fan or not). Transformers? Another HUGE movie. Then maybe even The Bourne Ultimatum.
