Top Summer Film of 2015

Post by Tom Foolery »

Hey! It's that time of year again!
We've been doing this long enough you know the rules.
1. It's not about which movie is kewlest or wev. (Although feel free to chime in on that), it's about what sits on top of the Box Office mountain as King at summer's end.
2. Cartoons don't count. That's why there aren't any on the list.
3. It's summer movies. That's why Hunger Games and Star Wars aren't on the list. And Spectre. Maybe we'll start doing a winter version with 5 choices.

I think this year's winner is fairly obvi.
The real question is what comes in second. I'm guessing either Tomorrow or Jurassic.

Insurgent and Man From UNCLE barely didn't make the cut. Insurgent because it's a tad early and didn't really have a chance. But I debated between Ant-Man and UNCLE. I think Ant is gonna be Marvel's first misfire. Unless I see a second trailer that flips it around.

For me, Terminator and FoundFootageFour look to be the potential John Carter's of the season.

What do you think?

So, Tomorrowland was a huge dud.
Furious 7 did well. Mad Max was well loved but only by those who watched it.
Marvel continues to dominate as expected. I think Civil War could top Ultron next year.

And people love dinosaurs.


Season is half over.

So you're not giving the new Vacation movie a chance?

Don't blame you.

I've heard Tomorrowland was amazing.

Disney blows at marketing.

Is Tomorrowland kid-friendly? Hoping for more than just Inside-Out for a good movie to take the little one to.
Life is short. STUNT IT!

I would say so. I really don't remember anything objectionable, outside of maybe a "Hell" or a "damn" (and I'm not even sure about those).
