So How Did You Like Summer 2010, Movie-Wise?

I’m going to keep this short and quick: the general consensus (aka my twitter feed) seems to indicate that the summer of 2010 was “like, one of the worst ever,” as decided by a group of people with the average age of 27. I actually agreed with that sentiment until just now, which is when I popped open the summer schedule and started reminiscing. Speaking only about “studio” flicks, since this is the summertime we’re talking about, we start with…

May

Iron Man 2
Robin Hood
MacGruber
Shrek Forever After
Sex and the City 2
Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time](Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time (2010) - Movie | Moviefone)

– I actually dug* Iron Man 2* quite a bit, but this is an admittedly thin batch. Anyone out there want to champion one of these flicks?

June

Get Him to the Greek
Killers
Marmaduke
Splice
The A-Team
The Karate Kid
Jonah Hex
Toy Story 3
Knight and Day
Grown Ups
Eclipse

Wow. There’s a few there I haven’t seen, but even fans of *Greek *or *The A-Team *are hardly to call them big-time summer season barn-burners. Splice is a pretty damn cool piece of sci-fi / horror, but I don’t get why you release that flick in the summertime. (pause for dramatic effect) Toy Story 3 is a thing of beauty.
