Box Office forsight ::: who will destroy the summer Box Office?

Here is another summer in which we will take the time out of idling to go and see a few movies and blame it on our children if it does not pan out to be awesome. However I think this summer will be different at the movies. With the Star power that the screen commands this go round, and the lack of a stable financial economy, I have the gut feeling that we will experience a box office blowout that will rival the past summer. I am talking blockbusters of mass proportions. This will be the summer everyone will not be able to afford that vacation so the money will be spent locally and less on travel and stay.

Why do I feel that way? Well take a look at the points in American Life when things were not looking so well and you had to find something to take away the pain of the reality around you. So you found refuge in fiction and books, surges took over box office tickets sales. Although people could not afford it they found ways to purchase movie tickets and get a does of the Hollywood drug called movies.

This summer is not different than the others before it. Also this time around you have the likes of CGI and and star power with the likes of ten kings and queens. With the fear that the economy will get worse people will flock this summer just to create memories that will keep the glue that binds strong in their families.

Although this is a prediction, I think there are many indicators in the past that proves my theory. All though I do not claim to be the ultimate authority on this subject, I have been watching movies long enough and focused on the box office year after year, to know that the box office boom is likely to take place this summer.

The majority of the big budget monsters this summer contain the Oscar Nominated/Winner, element, so few blockbuster films of the past embodied. This is the year of the prolific action star, that can do a damn good drama, comedy, and action film, and come back and give you the low key Oscar worthy performance in another movies, before the year is up. I think it is safe to say that we believe in the actors, and actresses, that we spend our 9 -15 bucks at the movie for.

So what movie will be the major banger this summer, that is a hard question, however Entertainment weekly seems to have it down to a science. From: Indiana Jones and The Kingdom of the crystal, predicted to do a whopping $355.9 Million, The Chronicles Of Narnia : Prince Caspian at a mark of $310.8 Million, Hancock $280.4 Million, Wall-E $280.3 Million, Iron Man $ 262.7 Million, The Dark Night $255.0 Million, Kung Fu Panda $ 244.6 Million, The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor $176.5 Million, The incredible Hulk $147.2 Million, Tropic Thunder $142.6 Million. Seems to be an impressive list and I would give or take, but they are barking up the right tree on this one. However I would Add that we have other sleepers that may take the cake as well. From Wanted with Angelina Jolie and Morgan Freeman, X-Files, and the Happening, which will mark the return of M. Night Shyamalan or forever break him.

So in saying all of this I believe we will have a robust buffet of movies to watch this summer, and would would have to divide our time to get them all in. The only thing that will break a movie this summer will be that random choice to see the one that is playing earlier or later. The indecisive movie goers are the wild cards, that will make the movie box office and one film or another. All we can do is sit back and just see.

In the mean time shoot on over to Entertainment Weekly to keep up to date with what will be and what is taking place already.
