Top 10 Weekend Blockbusters

Are you looking for a surefire way to beat the heat? Sitting in a sub-zero movie theater will do the trick. Does anyone else ever wonder why theaters are so cold? I would love to get a peek at their electric bill.

Anyway, the top 10 movie list of this past weekend is out. Here is how the plotlines rated among movie-goers. What movie sparks your interest?

1. The Amazing Spiderman

Really? Another Spiderman movie? I guess they figure it works and brings in the money. Actually, I hear this one is quite good.

2. Ted

A cute, cuddly bear is anything, but adorable in this adult comedy that features a Bear as one of the main characters. Not sure, I really see the point of this movie. Maybe I should give it a try. I might be surprised.

3. Brave

While I am tired of animated features, this one I enjoyed. I only wish I could speak in a Scottish accent. My Scottish accent sounds more like I am from Mumbai.

4. Savages

The first feature film for John Travolta in two years, couldn’t have come at a worse time for John Travolta. His recent public gay sexual assault scandal has people talking, but then again it can also drive ticket sales.

5. Magic Mike

Not sure how magical the script is. Mainly, this movie is simply for ones’ viewing pleasure.

6. Tyler Perry’s Madea’s Witness Protection

I can honestly say that I have never seen a Tyler Perry Madea production. However, I hear they are hilarious. Anyone see this already?

7. Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted

Another movie franchise that Hollywood is hoping will bring in big bucks. What do you think? Is 3 a magic number or should they have stopped at 2?

8. Katy Perry: Part of Me

I get Justin Bieber having a movie. The production company wants to cash in on the multitudes of screaming girls who would pay $100 a ticket just to be close to him in 3D. But Kate Perry, really?

9. Moonrise Kingdom

I have never even heard of this animated feature. Anyone else heard of it?

10. To Rome with Love

Again, what is this movie? Never heard the title muttered before.

I hate to sound so cynical about the weekend’s movies, but come on Hollywood! Let’s produce more than two worthwhile shows. I’m just saying . . .

Did you go to the movies this weekend? What are your recommendations?
