The Long Summer of Sequels
There seems to be an inordinate number of movie sequels hitting theaters this summer. I thought it would be fun to list as many as I can. I've broken them into three groups - those I plan to see on the big screen, those I plan to watch on DVD, and those I refuse to see unless the fate of the world hangs in the balance.
Worth the Price of Admission:- Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End - I'm curious to see what happens to Jack Sparrow and his crew.
- Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix - It opens a week before the last book hits shelves.
- Shrek the Third - The first two were hilarious. The third might be, too.
- Spider-Man 3 - Critics have panned it, but I want to see why they did.
- Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer - Silver Surfer is one of my favorite comic characters.
- The Bourne Ultimatum - I probably should watch The Bourne Supremacy first.
- Rush Hour 3 - It will likely be awful, but it's Jackie Chan.
- Live Free or Die Hard - Why?
- Ocean's 13 - There's something about The Modern Day Rat Pack that annoys me.
- Evan Almighty - I'm a Steve Carell fan, so I might end up watching it anyway.
- Resident Evil: Extinction - Gore and horror just aren't my style.

you should check out the movie "Waitress" it's a cute movie about a waitress & her abusive husband and stuff that happens to her. Great independent movie, probably better than all those blockbuster films.
The filmaker was killed by a contractor so no more films by this woman director. so sad.
Thanks for the recommendation. It sounds like a potentially bittersweet film and it's awful what happened to the director. I'm putting it in my queue to view.
By the way, thanks for recommending Idiocracy before. I got a few laughs out of that.
