The script for the Batman film hasn't been finished yet I don't think, I'd be very suprised if it came out at all in 2011, let alone the summer.

Batman probably won't be out until earliest 2012.

Dunno, I'm kinda looking forward to Iron Man and the new Robin Hood film, out this summer.

I thought the last one was about Nolan Ryan. The other 2 I don't give a shit about. Transformers 2 was fuc*ing terrible

Also, Ghostbusters 3

I didn't like POTC or Transformers, Batman I'm already pumped for.

Hangover 2? Are you serious?

Harry Potter? Heard they were making 2 more of these. Armageddon is officially here....

Nobody has mentioned the epic SAW yet. In 3D!!!!!! (Im not seeing it)

This brings up an interesting debate. Which is the biggest blockbuster summer ever? I'd have to go with 2007 right now.

Spiderman 3
Shrek 3
Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End
Knocked Up
Ocean's 13
Fantastic 4: Silver Surfer
Live Free or Die Hard
Ratatouille
Transformers
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
Simpsons Movie
Bourne Ultimatum
Rush Hour 3
Superbad

Harry Potter doesn't belong there. It belongs in the toilet. They should rename the movie "Harry Potter and the Order Of the shitty films in the series" lol, I chuckled. It made me smile sort of as i type and finish off this sentence today.

Wow, looks like a decent lineup

Agreed that 2007 was the shit.

They need to remake HP 3 and up as they all sucked ass after the second.

Yeah someone keeps saying that.

I think the Superman/Batman movie will be out before the third Batman movie. Or I have it the other way around. I don't remember.

It's not officially a blockbuster Summer without a Will Smith movie.

I may have to agree with Summer 2007 being possibly the biggest to date... ...Especially with the "hype" surrounding Transformers, Spiderman 3, and Pirates 3 leading the way...not saying they were great or even good movies, but at the box office, they held their own...

I was going to look up on IMDB to see what movies he has coming out but apparently IMDB is gay now and requires a subscription to see anything in development..pft

Pretty sure 2008 raked in more cash, with Dark Knight, Iron Man, and Indiana Jones.

Also, for my money those 3 are much more satisfying summer blockbusters.

But like has been said, every summer tops the last as far as money is concerned. It's inflation. As for quality, and actual tickets sold, that's another story.

the only thing I found out was he is producing the remake of The Karate Kid b/c his son is in the movie. It's scheduled for release this summer

Touche'

and yes, The Dark Knight and Iron Man by far outshined the big 3 that I referenced. Not much of a fan of Indiana Jones 4 though, but i did pay to go see it...

2008 meets my requirement of having a Will Smith blockbuster so I'm set.

I was a huge mark for Freddy vs Jason in that summer as well

I think that was the first summer I didn't have to sneak into R rated movies anymore
