I still need to see Chappie.

critics...and for that matter a lot of the public didn't like it but i loved it. it's like if you take the quirky charm of a doctor who episode and add in very adult themes and dialogue you end up with chappie. plus it stars the two leads of die antwoord and while not the most amazing actors, they are always entertaining!

On Saturday I watch some horror/thriller movies both Ouija and Devil movie, which they weren't bad and on Sunday I finally got around to watch Saving Mr. Banks which was really good and finished off watching Mary Poppins.

Next weekend will be MCU films with #15 coming out Guardians of The Galaxy 2.

summer blockbuster season begins this friday.

i hope alien is good. there is still some talk of the district 9 director, neill blomkamp, doing an alien movie if this one does well and they decide to keep the franchise going. i will gladly see whatever that guy does. d9, elysium and chappie were all enjoyed by me. and like everyone else, i absolutely loved d9. one of the best sci fi movies in a while.

I also enjoyed District 9 and I have heard Neill Blomkamp wants to direct District 10 sometime in the future.

Alien will win, but Guardians won't be too far behind it.

What about an Alien vs Guardians flick?

Oh come on baby Groot can kick Alien ass anytime, you don't want to mess with him!

I like the first 2 Aliens movies, the 2 were somewhat alright and Prometheus was really good. I heard reports of Alien: Covenant might not be great, but I'll wait when it comes to digital copy.

I already have my tickets for Pirates 5 this weekend.

Box office earnings are down this year compared to 2016. I think I read somewhere around 10% less.

On Box Office Mojo, this link below shows a comparison of 2012 through 2017.

Movie Box Office Year-to-Date Comparison - Box Office Mojo

Were about 1/2 way through 2017 and there still some major movies left to come out this year and of coarse there all mostly Disney movies.

The list below are some major and non-major movies that will earn some decent amount of money.

Pirates 5
Baywatch
Wonder Woman
The Mummy
Cars 3
Kingsman 2
Transformer 5
Despicable Me 3
Spider-Man
Planet of The Apes
Baby Driver
Dunkirk
Detroit
Dark Tower
Annabelle 2
It
Blade Runner 2049
Saw 8
Thor
Justice League
Coco
Star Wars 8
The Washington Post's
Jumanji remake

The only reason I listed Baywatch and Jumanji because they star the Rock and usually a lot people enjoy seeing his movies, me personally I'm a bit tired of him already.

Is there even ONE original movie on that list?
