I watched 3 of the big movies so far.

Wonder Woman was amazing and fun. Just a good all around exciting movie.

Cars 3. This cars went back to what made the first Cars so good in the first place. Very enjoyable addition to the Cars Universe. Likeable characters and a plot you can understand.

Transformers 3....... Why did I waste my money on this. I guess if you like big robots who tear up things and world ending events vaguely tied to some history of the earth then well you might not NOT dislike this movie too much. The normal explosions and bots were there, but the story was confusing as hell. Lots of this movie were left on the editing room floor. Too much was cut out to make everything make sense. I am not expecting some award winning story here, but really this made no sense for most of the movie.

You mean Transformers 5, right? The third movie came out in 2011, and IMO they've all been terrible from the second one on. First off, I can't stand that dork Labeouf (or however it's spelled). He plays basically the same character in every movie I've ever seen him in... a neurotic, snivelling dork. So the first one was difficult enough, but made watchable by the fact that Megan Fox played opposite him, and enjoyable by the robot characters. In my mind, the rest have all been really, REALLY cheesy and just a general waste of time. I have no plans to see the latest travesty in the Transformers universe.

Haven't seen the other two you mention yet either, but I've seen a lot of good reviews of Wonder Woman, and Cars 3 will be seen just because the kids will need to see it, HA!

Yes Transformers 5 sorry I lost count. Trashformers 5 is more like it. Honestly I am not sure what that movie was about and I watched the whole thing.

Oh even if the kids make you see it Cars 3 is still good.

Also Despicable Me 3 is also a good one to go see.

No surprise Cars 3 and Despicable Me 3 are good, but good to have another opinion!

The last 2 Transformers movies have been aimed at the international market, specifically China. The domestic sales will be low but International is where Transformers makes ridiculous money. And that's why they keep making them.

I haven't watched a Transformers movie in the theater since the 3rd one.

I don't have much budget for going to the theater these days but I can tell you what the pundits on Movie Talk are saying about other movies.

Spider-Man Homecoming is going to be huge. Everyone loves it.

Dunkirk hasn't been reviewed yet but the majority of ppl I talk to or listen to have high anticipation for the latest Nolan movie.

I'm blanking on other titles coming out in the next month. Shrug

Well I went out and watched the latest Spiderman and it was enjoyable.

They did a good job of bringing Spiderman back into the Marvel Universe. I was so glad they did not rehash the whole getting bit by a spider and Uncle Ben dying thing AGAIN. I am sure that one day if they keep this kid has Spiderman they might do his backstory but honestly if I see Uncle Ben or the Waynes get killed again I might lose it.

I really want to see Dunkirk as well, but school is starting back up and I will have to get back into the working world again.

I did not get to see any more movies I don't think. If I did I did not remember them so they must have been bad.

I really wanted to watch

Dunkirk but it did not stay long. Was it bad? Don't worry about spoilers I know what happened at Dunkirk already.

I want to see the movie IT, but wife hates any kind of horror movies and would be a pain in the rear to even take to that.
