The main thing I was looking forward to was Iron Man 2 and that was great. I don't know what else there is coming out this summer though.

My personal favourite moment from the trailers is Jackie Chan telling the kid "I will teach you Kung Fu". I thought the movie was called Karate Kid

I don't think Shenanigans can pull off another Sixth Sense, but I'd be content with even something like, say Lady In The Water (which, while unbearably trite and nonsensical, was still watchable). Just as long as it's not another Unbreakable, Signs or The Village.

Hmm...I thought Lady in the Water was boring. Signs was appalling because of silly things like the aliens being hurt by water. I really liked Unbreakable. That seems to be a love it or hate it movie. (most people seem to hate it )
I have high hopes for Airbender but I find it unlikely to fulfill them. Can't wait to see the critics' consensus on it.

Pete Vonder Haar of Film Threat commented: "If Shyamalan is going to use his kids as a focus group for future projects, maybe he should start making movies for Nickelodeon already and stop wasting our time"

It was a pleasant surprise. Nothing original, but still pretty fun. And it has made decent money at the box office too.

Chickflicks aren't meant to be original and I'd be gutted if I went to see one and it didn't fit in a nice wee film plan.
