Not surprised at all with Transformers 3. Bosses did surprise on the upside. I hate Anniston so no way I'd pay to see that, yeah my personal feelings about stars does influence what I see.

The big question all along has been HP vs Transformers, my money has always been on T3 but I expect HP to be right on its heels domestically but probably win the worldwide race. HP has Captain America 1 week later which will hurt it domestically while T3 didn't have any serious competition for its target audience the 2nd week.

Green Lantern's numbers should look a lot better next month when it finally releases on all the foreign markets. It should at least get close to its budget (fingers crossed). Hard to believe that GL, which I loved, cost more than T3, which I also loved, to produce. T3 just had such a superior production value
 

Can't wait for CAPTAIN AMERICA in 2 weeks baby. I'll see HP but not that hyped about it.

Yeah, it should be interesting to see which movie wins the global box office for the summer, T3, HP or POTC.  I expect to see a big drop off for T3 with HP opening this weekend and grabbing a lot of the same audience.  All three are/will be huge box office successes though.  Still have to see what Cap does, but it could turn out that Thor wins the super hero box office.  I wouldn't have thought that prior to May.

My fear with Cap is that people will have had their fill of the summer movies and their wallets will be empty.  Going into the summer, I was jacked to see Cowboys vs Aliens and Cap, but after seeing Thor (just felt the itch to see a movie ...and that was the first big summer flick), then Pirates...then Hangover...then T3...then gonna see Harry ...I am kinda movied out.  Cap and Cowboys will be dropped in the Netflix que.  It ain't cheap to see a movie for us.  $30 in gas as it's 100 mile round trip.  $20 for the tickets.  $35-40 for a meal.  $20-40 for shit you wouldn't have normally bought (popcorn?  crap at the mall?  etc... ).  We are talking over a hundred bucks....and we don't have kids!!! 

I am happy for T3...it was a great summer popcorn movie...which is what it was intended to be.  Fun?  It was...and the 3-D actually looked good.  I hope Cap kicks ass as it does look great.  It may be a straight purchase when the blu-ray hits. 

Maybe I'm projecting my own enthusiasm but I fully expect Captain America to be the king of superhero flicks this year. Cowboys and Aliens I care less about each day and the more I see. I expect Cap to beat it when it opens

Big deal!

Wiseguy, I don't see Cowboys and Aliens or Conan being a huge hit.  Thor or Cap will top the super hero box office.  I thoroughly enjoyed Thor so if Cap is as good or better, I will be ecstatic.

Man aren't we all glad to not have invested in that pile of crap called GL...it will never make all it's money back and it's just not picking up steam at all.

Good for TF3, fun to see in all of it's Non-3D glory and worth the price of admission.

Now only Cap and Harry potter to see.

Stayed away from Zookeeper because it looked like another crapfest for Kevin James. While I'm with Wiseguy about Aniston (I've always thought she was highly over-rated in every way) I went to see Horrible Bosses and laughed a lot. Not surprised at how well TF3 is doing; it's the ultimate summer popcorn flick.

The more I see of Cowboys and Aliens, the less interested in the film I am. There's just no real hook in it for me. Ford's not a draw for me unless he's playing Indy and I'd rather see Craig as Bond. At this point I'm not even sure if I'll see it. I'll probably end up going to see Captain America again that weekend for what will probably be the 10th time by that point. This is the movie I've waited 36 years for and I'm chomping at the bit for it.

Looking forward to see HP this weekend but all I can think about is I only have days to wait for Captain America. After seeing the trailers I think Cap's going to be very successful and just might go down on the books as one of the top comic book movies of all time in both dollars and quality.

I don't believe wallets will be dried up by the time Cap hits the big screens. Summer movies are escapism for people and as history has proven, the crappier the economy the more people want to escape to the movies. People will check their sofa cushions and under their car seats for the cash to go to the movies.

Bit the bullet and saw T3.  Not bad.  Not good.  AMAZING visuals.

Pumped for Cap and HP7.  HP7 will take the global top spot if the movie is as good as it looks.  People will be crazy knowing this is Harry Potter's swan song.

Did Cowboys and Aliens get pushed a week back from Cap?  I thought they were both opening on the 22nd, but the preview I saw the other day said Cowboys was on the 29th.  This is going to sound like a stupid statement, but Cap will have to be a good movie to haul in big dollars.  What I mean is this...a movie like Transformers can kind of suck and still get the pass because people just want to see robot carnage and orgasmic special effects.  Cap is going to have to nail all the human stuff too, and I hope they pull it off.

Both Harrison Ford and Daniel Craig are big stars.  And the film was directed by the guy who directed Iron Man which was a really good film and a big hit.  I don't understand why you all aren't really looking forward to Cowboys and Aliens.  I sure am.

I'm also VERY excited for Harry Potter.  Having watched all the movies I really want to see how it all ends.

Never been a big fan of the character Captain America so I'm not especially stoked to see it.  If all you guys say it's good I might go for a bargain matinee, but otherwise I'll wiat till it hits HBO.  And Joe Public may be superheroed out this summer after Thor, GL and an X-Men film.
