Yeah that's a pretty solid list. Other that some slight numbering changes I completely agree with this list!

well so far its been one of the weaker summer movie seasons. Here are my rankings so far.

1. Iron Man II
2. A-Team
3. Karate kid
4. Losers

I passed on robin hood, prince of persia, shrek, and killers. Missed Kick ass. Looking forward to Toy Story, Salt, airbender, predators, Knight/day and Inception so there is still time to salvage it.

So far I would say;

1. Losers
2. Kick Ass
-I hadn't read either of these when the movies came out and went in with no expectations so I was really surprised when I liked them so much.

3. Iron Man II
-I had such high hopes after the first one I don't think this could have possibly lived up to my expectations. That is definitely not to say that I didn't have a blast!

Can't wait for Toy Story and Scott Pilgrim, but I doubt if I'll have any time to see anything else in theaters.

A Team was okay, I would say wait for the DVD. Iron Man 2 was a decent sequel, worth seeing in the theater. Toy Story 3, meh. Not that into Disney cartoons, especially the sequels. Kick Ass was great. Losers looks good, haven't seen it. Scott Pilgrim looks awesome...can't wait.

What about Inception?

I said inception, definitely interested in it after last trailer. Saw Toy Story 3...Amazing and as it was with UP, Pixar is showing its ability to entertain the kids while giving the adults some emotional resonance. The final coda should have you in tears if you have (or have been) a child.

Inception and scott pilgrim have been seen. Both were great, inception has generated plenty of discussion so its worth the price of admission. Scott Pilgrim was hilarious not sure why it didn't make money.

New list:

1. Iron Man II
2. A-Team
3. Inception
4. Toy Story
5. Scott Pilgrim
6. Predators
7. Karate Kid
8. Losers

Gotta say that none of these movies (after IM II) where head and shoulders above the others and that I would gladly see all of them again. Salt and Expendables still on the list then its into the fall. First 2 movies on my list

1. Machete
2. Red

By Fun Factor:
1. Scott Pilgrim
2. Losers
3. Iron Man 2/Kick Ass/A-Team

Gets it's own list:
1. Inception

Have yet to see Toy Story and Expendables. My girlfriend saw Salt and wasn't too thrilled, so I probably wont see it until it's on Netflix or something.
