Mental Purgatory

As you’ve probably picked up by now, I love movies. So, every summer, the studios throw everything they’ve got at us and every summer, I bite just about every time. Last summer had the heavy hitters with Dark Knight and Iron Man. Looking at this summer here’s what I’d like to hit up.
