Overall BO is down 15-18% depending on whose figures you believe. This weeks flicks were stupidly weak. I have hope for Guardians of the Galaxy, but this is the worst summer for movies in maybe 5 years.

Not really a lot to get excited about this summer, IMO.

CA2, X-Men DOFP, Dawn, and 22 Jump St were all good IMO. This summer has probably the most I've been to the movies in a while

Terrible year for movies.

Needed a time killer the other night and the wife and I thought about a movie. 14 screens and nothing we had any interest in seeing.

We brought up how weird it was that right in the heart of the summer there was nothing on we felt like we could sit through if only to kill a couple of hours.

I've been to 3 movies this summer (apes, Godzilla, 22 jump street). I wanted to see x men but didn't get around to it . I don't think I'll go back this summer bc nothing looks interesting to me.

The highest RT score among the new releases this past weekend was a 46%.

I don't think it's a bad movie year. The summer is terrible so far. Can't wait for Hercules and Guardians though.

This has been one of the best that I can remember.

I've seen four movies this summer: X-Men DOFP, Dawn, Edge of Tomorrow, Godzilla. Only bad one was Godzilla. There has also been a TON of trash released this summer, but I've saved myself the torment of seeing it all.

Fall+Winter is where it's at. Always has been.

I feel like its one of the best. I haven't been this excited for a lot of stuff in a long time.
