2.368 OF ANY SIZE AND SO WHAT WE SEE
2.368 HERE IS A MOVIE THAT HAS
2.368 REALLY CAPTURED. THIS SITE GUY

2.368 CULTURE PEOPLE ARE JUST LOVING
2.368 THIS MOVIE THEY'RE TELLING
2.368 THEIR FRIENDS. HOLLYWOOD
2.368 NEEDED THIS GOING INTO THE
2.368 SUMMER MOVIE SEASON. IT WAS A
2.368 PRETTY BAD MARCH, ESPECIALLY
2.368 AND IT'S A GREAT WAY TO GO
2.368 INTO THE BIGGEST PART OF THE
2.368 BOX OFFICE YEAR WITH A LITTLE
2.368 MOMENTUM AND OH BY THE WAY IT
2.368 HAPPENS TO BE REALLY GOOD.
2.368 >> ALL RIGHT AND NOW TO THE
2.368 SUMMER MOVIE SEASON FOR OVER
2.368 DECADE, YOU PRETTY
2.368 SUCCESSFULLY PUT OUT YOUR
2.368 ANNUAL PREDICTIONS FOR THE
2.368 SUMMER BOX OFFICE WE MENTIONED
2.368 THUNDERBOLT TO HAVE THAT
2.368 COMING IN AT NUMBER 8 THIS
2.368 YEAR IN THE MIX WITH MISSION
2.368 IMPOSSIBLE JURASSIC WORLD AND
2.368 AF ONE. WHAT DO YOU SEE AS
2.368 BEING THE BIGGEST HITS THIS
2.368 SUMMER WAS COUNTDOWN PICKS FOR
2.368 THROUGH TOO.
2.368 >> SURE WELL NUMBER 4
2.368 APPROPRIATELY I HAVE THE
2.368 FANTASTIC 4 FIRST STEPS WHICH
2.368 IS THE NEXT MOVIE COMING OUT
2.368 FROM THE MCU WE JUST GOT A
2.368 FRESH ONE. THIS IS HEAVILY
2.368 ANTICIPATED BY MARVEL FAN SAYS
2.368 ONE OF THE BIGGEST MARVEL
2.368 SUPERHERO GROUPS THAT HASN'T
2.368 YET BEEN IN THE MCU PROPER
2.368 INTRODUCED INTO THE BIG
2.368 INTEGRATED UNIVERSE IS A LOT
2.368 OF EXCITEMENT AROUND IT AND I
2.368 THINK THAT IF THIS REALLY IS A
2.368 GREAT MOVIE YOU'RE GOING TO
2.368 SEE A LOT OF EXCITED FANS
2.368 SHOWING UP AND GOING TO THE
2.368 THEATER. AT NUMBER 3 IS A
2.368 MOVIE FROM THE OTHER CINEMATIC
2.368 UNIVERSE WHICH IS DC AND
2.368 THERE'S A LOT RIDING ON THIS
2.368 IT'S SUPERMAN FROM JAMES GUNN.
2.368 WARNER BROTHERS IS HOPING THIS
2.368 MOVIE DOES WELL DC IS HOPING
2.368 THIS WOULD BE DOES WELL THEY
2.368 WANT TO LAUNCH A WHOLE KIND OF
2.368 REFRESH OF THE DC UNIVERSE.
2.368 I'M A BIG FAN OF JAMES GUNN'S
2.368 PREVIOUS MOVIES, INSIDE AND
2.368 OUTSIDE COMIC BOOK GENRE AND
2.368 SO I'M LOOKING FOR THIS I
2.368 THINK IF HE DOES WELL THIS
2.368 MOVIE IS GOING TO DO EXTREMELY
2.368 WELL. IN SECOND PLACE IS
2.368 SOMETHING THAT I'M A LITTLE
2.368 BIT PERSONALLY, BUT I THINK
2.368 AUDIENCES GOING TO BE TIRED OF
2.368 WHICH IS A LIVE ACTION REMAKE
2.368 OF AN ANIMATED FILM HOW TO
2.368 TRAIN YOUR DRAGON THIS MOVIE
2.368 DIDN'T COME OUT THAT LONG AGO
2.368 BUT IT IS A VERY POPULAR
2.368 FILLED WITH A LOT OF FOLKS AND
2.368 THERE'S A LOT OF ANTICIPATION
2.368 AROUND THIS BECAUSE I THINK
2.368 ONE OF THE THINGS THAT THESE
2.368 LIVE ACTION REMAKE SAYS MANY
2.368 OF THEM ARE VERY GOOD. IF THIS
2.368 ONE IS GOOD. I THINK PEOPLE
2.368 ARE GOING TO SHOW UP SEE IT.
2.368 OKAY NUMBER ONE. HAHA NUMBER
2.368 ONE FOR MANY OF THE SAME
2.368 REASONS THAT I PUT HOW TO
2.368 TRAIN YOUR DRAGON NUMBER 2 I
2.368 THINK THAT LILO AND STITCH IS
2.368 GOING TO BE THE BIGGEST HIT OF
2.368 THE SUMMER IT'S ANOTHER LIVE
2.368 ACTION REMAKE, BUT YOU HAVEN'T
2.368 HAD THERE'S THERE'S THE
2.368 ORIGINAL FILM AND THEATRICALLY
2.368 THAT'S BASICALLY CAME OUT OVER
2.368 20 YEARS AGO, I THINK YOU'RE
2.368 GOING TO HAVE A LOT OF PEOPLE
2.368 NOW ADULTS WHO WERE KIDS WHEN
2.368 LILO AND STITCH CAME OUT THAT
2.368 ARE NOW GOING WANT TO GO SEE
2.368 THIS THEY'RE GOING TO WANT TO
2.368 BRING THEIR KIDS WE LOOK AT
2.368 LOOK AT STUD THAT IS ONE OF
2.368 THE CUTEST CHARACTERS, IT
2.368 LENDS ITSELF TO ADVERTISING
2.368 IT'S KIND OF THE PERFECT STORM
2.368 AND I THINK THAT THIS MOVIE IS
2.368 GOING REALLY ROCK THE BOX
2.368 OFFICE RIGHT IN THE HEART OF
2.368 THE SUMMER AND I THINK IT'S
2.368 GOING TO BE VERY VERY WELL
2.368 BLAST FROM THE PAST OUR KIDS
2.368 WERE IN DIAPERS WHEN THE ALL
2.368 RIGHT NOT ALL MOVIES COULD BE
2.368 SUCCESSES, THOUGH WE'VE GOT TO
2.368 GO HERE THERE'S BOUND TO BE
2.368 SOME HIGH-PROFILE FLOPS WHAT
2.368 DO YOU SEE AS POTENTIALLY
2.368 BEING THE BIGGEST.
2.368 >> DISAPPOINTMENT SUMMER 25.
2.368 >> WELL IT'S ON MY TOP 10
2.368 LIST, BUT I THINK THAT PIXAR
2.368 HAS TO WORRY ABOUT ELLY OH
2.368 IT'S AN ORIGINAL ANIMATED
2.368 FILM. IT'S FAMILY MOVIE HEAVY
2.368 SUMMER AND PIXAR IS A BIG
2.368 SPOTLIGHT ON IT SO THIS MOVIE
2.368 DISAPPOINTS EVEN IF IT DOES
2.368 OKAY LIKE ELEMENTAL DID A FEW
2.368 YEARS AGO. I THINK THAT
2.368 BECAUSE IT'S PIXAR AND IT
2.368 DOESN'T MATCH UP MAYBE THE
2.368 INSIDE OUT TOO THAT IT COULD
2.368 BE CONSIDERED ONE OF THE
2.368 BIGGER DISAPPOINTMENTS OF THE
2.368 YEAR, BUT IT COULD DO REALLY
2.368 WELL THAT'S THE THING WITH
2.368 THIS PROGNOSTICATION YOU JUST
2.368 NEVER
2.368 >> ALL WE'VE GOT 30 SECONDS
2.368 LET'S END ON A POSITIVE NOTE,
2.368 A FEW SUMMERS BACK A FILM
2.368 CALLED THE SOUND OF FREEDOM
2.368 CAME OUT OF NOWHERE AND ENDED
2.368 UP.
2.368 >> MAKING NEARLY 200 MILLION
2.368 DOLLARS IS THERE A MOVIE
2.368 LURKING UNDER THE RADAR RIGHT
2.368 NOW THAT YOU COULD THINK THAT
2.368 WILL BE A BREAKOUT THIS YEAR.
2.368 >> I THINK CORPS IS POISED TO
2.368 HAVE A GOOD YEAR AT THE BOX
2.368 OFFICE AND THERE'S A MOVIE
2.368 COMES ON AUGUST CALLED
2.368 WEAPONS. THEY'VE JUST STARTED
2.368 PUBLICIZING IT AND THE
2.368 PUBLICITY, THE TRAILERS AND
2.368 STUFF ARE ALREADY GETTING
2.368 PEOPLE TALKING IF THEY CAN
2.368 SUSTAIN THAT THROUGHOUT THE
2.368 SUMMER THIS COULD BE A MOVIE
2.368 THAT AT THE END OF THE SOME
2.368 PEOPLE GO WOW THIS WASN'T
2.368 REALLY ON MY RADAR BUT ENDS UP
2.368 BEING ONE OF THE MORE
2.368 SUCCESSFUL PHONES SPOKEN LIKE
2.368 A SEMINAL WITH THE FLORIDA
2.368 STATE.
