A dire few weeks ahead...?

Just a few notes about the upcoming slate of films and reviews...



So the next few weeks are going to be relatively brutal:

- This weekend: You could not pay me to see MacGruber or Holy Rollers (My review of Shrek 4 will be up on Wednesday though)

- Next weekend: Prince of Persia just seems truly terrible to me but it is possible I will end up seeing it. Sex in the City 2...not gonna happen.

- June 4th: Killers...no. Get Him to the Greek...maybe. Could be funny. Not in any hurry though. Splice is definitely something I will try and see.

- June 11th: The A-Team...this will be the first weekend after Ben's big test so I have a feeling we will go see this together. Still, not excited at all for this one. Much more excited for Winter's Bone which which got a lot of praise at the last Sundance Film Festival. This is my most eagerly awaited film of the next few weeks.

- June 18th: Toy Story 3 and Jonah Hex. I have zero expectations for either (Hated Toy Story 2 and Jonah Hex looks like mule feces). Will probably see both. On the independent film front there is I Am Love with Tilda Swinton and Cyrus with John C. Reily and Jonah Hill. I'm very "blah" on both of those.

- June 25th: Grown-Ups is another one you would have to pay me to watch. Knight and Day is only interesting because some of it was shot in Boston which always piques my interest.

So yeah, could be a brutal month. Might have to review some DVDs I have piled up in front of me including House (crazy 70s Japanese picture), Force of Evil, Tales from the Golden Age (the newest movie by the guy who made 4 Months, 3 Weeks & 2 Days) and Putney Swope.

Be good,
