The summer movie season is upon us once again – that odd seasonal conundrum in which we give thanks for all the bright, warm, days by rushing into dark, cool, theaters to watch Hollywood’s big tentpole films (and a few counter-programming hopefuls) crash together in competition for audience dollars.
The presence of Avengers: Age of Ultron at the start of the lineup pretty much signals that there will be a clear king of summer this year (Marvel) – but nonetheless, some big budget reboots (Jurassic World, Mad Max: Fury Road), new installments of popular franchises (Minions, Mission: Impossible 5) and a few new entries (Tomorrowland, Ant-Man) could all pull in serious dollars, and probably deserve your attention.
