Thus far, I have seen two official summer movies: Wall-E and Hellboy II.
I think I overhyped Wall-E for myself. While I found it to be a sweet story and conscious of current and future environmental woes, I also found it slightly... disappointing. I know, I am probably the only one who feels this way. I thought Wall-E himself was adorable and looked like a mini Johnny 5 and Eva looked like a cute mini R2-D2 and the computer animation was incredible. However, after seeing more exciting (?) Pixar films such as Ratatouille or Finding Nemo, I was left slightly bored. My bf loved the movie, and I am probably being way too critical (naturally)!
I got all the action and non-boredom one would want seeing Hellboy II. Ron Perlman is awesome as Hellboy. Selma Blair is starting to look old. Guillermro del Torro is insanely creative. His creatures are simply awesome. Saw this movie with 3 boys, and they all loved it too (natually). This guy is going to make a great Hobbit.
Other summer movies on my list to see: The new Batman flick (in IMAX) The Dark Knight (RIP Heath), The Wackness (only because I want to see the portrayal of NYC in 1994 and the Mary-Kate Olsen/Ben Kingsley sex scene), The Pineapple Express (because Seth Rogan rocks), Mamma Mia!, and one of the Hunter S. Thompson movies.
