I meant to do this the other day after I watched Iron Man and Indiana Jones: comment on all the previews I saw for the summer movies.

The Incredible Hulk
    No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

    No.

You Don't Mess with the Zohan
    It might be funny, and it also might be a single joke. I'd probably be more tempted to see it if it was a Cohen Brother's flick. (Secret confession - I laughed so hard I cried during There's Something About Mary.)

The Happening
    *is still traumatized from watching the Sixth Sense in the theater* I'll satisfy my curiousity about his twist-of-the-day by reading spoilers.

Get Smart
    I want to want to see this movie, but the trailer looked really dumb. I've got a bad feeling about this, Sparky. If the reviews are bad, I definitely won't see it.

The Love Guru
    I'm not sure why Mike Myers didn't just make another Austin Powers movie, because this is exactly what this is. Very big PASS.

Wall-E
    Awwwww. I hope it's good. I wanna see it.

Hancock
    Looks like a blast, and Will Smith is always a draw for me. I'll see it.

Hellboy II
    Okay, what? I had no idea there was a Hellboy I. Nor do I think I care.

The Dark Knight
    Hmm. This is a maybe for me. I love giving Christopher Nolan kudos for just about anything. I'm sure he walks the dog masterfully. But the superhero thing just never excites me on its own.

The Mummy
    Eh, I'll probably see it. Looks like some brainless fun. I'm not expecting the charm of the first 2 movies though, considering Evie's been actor-replaced. (They really couldn't find a British actor? Erg, she's going to attempt the fake accent, isn't she?) But, you know, Brendan Fraser. So yay! And also Michelle Yeoh who I've had a girlcrush on ever since Crouching Tiger.


I didn't see a preview for it, but just felt the need to mention that I WILL be seeing the X-Files movie. \o/

And also in the Coming Soon department, new Futurama DVD June 24!!

Zohan - American comedies=not my thing. This probably won't be either.

Get Smart - It looks...amusing, surprisingly enough. Which is something, given I've never seen the show and that I usually cannot watch Steve Carrell for more than about 10 minutes.

Wall-e - *flail* So cute! Want!

Hancock - The first previews looked totally uninteresting to me, but this last one kind of intrigued me. So I might see it if reviews are good.

Hellnoy II - I never saw the first, but the second looks really interesting to me. Maybe I'll go with one of my comic-book-geek friends and they can explain things.

Dark Knight - I have a feeling people will be making me go to this, whether I like it or not.

Mummy - Hm. Well, I want to see it because, hey, Brendan Fraser as Rick and Michelle Yeoh. Everyone has mixed feelings about hte new Evie, but I'm going to look on the bright side and hope that maybe she isn't so bad. I'll probably see it for the reasons I liked Indy: good mindless fun.

Michelle: turning the five-second preview review into a refined art.

He's been growing on me a BIT lately. I've caught a couple of the latest episodes of The Office.

*pats you*

She could be all right. I'm not really expecting much though. Just hoping she doesn't suck. :D

Yeah, see, he's not funny to me at all in that show (blasphemy, I know). But the preview for the movie looked slightly amusing, mainly because of the presence of Anne Hathaway as the straight-(wo)man.

Just hoping she doesn't suck. :D

So say we all.

Eh, it's not blasphemy to me. I'm not really into the show, but for some weird reason watched the last few.
