Every year we hear lots of buzz about Summer Blockbusters with lots of previews
in the Spring.

What movie do you think will end up on the top of the heap ?

If you mean 'Man of Steel', I understand that it comes out this month on June 14th.

This is probably more relevant to a different thread, but we are talking
about Superman actors. So, do you think the role is cursed ?
Ie. Steve Reeves and Christopher Reeve.........

I'm betting MAN OF STEEL with be #1 for the summer, although technically it's a spring release -- as were STAR TREK and IRON MAN 3, both of which did very well. Summer starts June 21st, and all those movies opened previous.

PACIFIC RIM will also do well. MONSTERS UNIVERSITY will do well.

WORLD WAR Z will do okay. Not great but okay. Same for THE WOLVERINE.

THE LONE RANGER ... ehh, I dunno. Were I a betting man (and I'm not), that one is starting to smell rather floppery, though I think it will probably do better than AFTER EARTH.

You're thinking of George Reeves who played Superman. Steve Reeves played Hercules in 'Hercules' and 'Hercules Unchained.'
