Civil War has come and gone. - and by this i mean, it's on the way out, you fukkin idiots who think i meant it flopped. it's the clear king of summer before the summer even got started, and I highly HIGHLY doubt any movie listed below will be even close to as good. We good?
TMNT2 flopped. XMen kinda flopped, or at least did a lot worse than expected. Now You See Me 2 doesn't have a prayer...
Look at the list of big budget movies coming out from now til September:
Central Intelligence - probably not a massive budget, but $100 mil is likely. looks terrible. Will probably make pretty good money in the short term.
Independence Day 2 - before this summer I would have said this was a sequel no one really wanted, but with the slim pickens it might do alright. I still don't think it's gonna be a massive success. Still, it might be the financial hit of the summer.
The BFG - Spielberg, but it looks pretty terrible, and are there many people that truly care about the source material. Giant movies are usually terrible.
The Legend of Tarzan - who the fukk asked for this? Looks fine, but who's running to see this on a hot July day?
Ghostbusters - might make good bank out of morbid curiousity, but I doubt it.
Star Trek Beyond - will make a lot, but come and go. This is a nearly dead franchise.
Jason Bourne - Seems like a movie whose budget it bigger than it needs to be. Will do fine, I'm sure. I personally don't give a fukk and I don't know if Bournes are massive hits as is.
Suicide Squad - will do well, and is one of a couple I actually wanna see, but it has the DCU stink on it, and might tank after one week. who knows.
Pete's Dragon - another "who the fukk is this for?" movie with old source material that adults probably don't care about and kids probably don't know. Looks like pure shyt. Will flop.
Ben-hur - who the fukk is this for?
This summer is dogshyt. Outside of Disney with thier live action fairytales, Marvel and Star Wars, big budget movies might be dying. DC has a chance. Avatars will probably make money when they eventually. That Harry Potter spinoff will bank... but what else is there? Looks like Christmas and pre-summer are the big times now. The Summer blockbuster is toast.
