Is it bad that I really want to see Minions? I know it's a kid's movie, but it looks so funny and those little yellow minions are adorable. I also need to see Ant-Man because I love Paul Rudd and Marvel superhero movies.
MOVIES
Terminator Genisys
When John Connor (Jason Clarke) sends Kyle Reese (Jai Courtney) back to 1984 to protect Sarah Connor (Emilia Clarke) and safeguard the future, it creates a fractured timeline. Now Kyle Reese is in an unfamiliar version of the past and must reset the future. {Watch the trailer.} (July 1)
Minions
The minions live to serve the most despicable villains, so three minions (Kevin, Stuart, and Bob) go on a road trip where they hope to get a shot to work for a new boss--the world's first female super-villain. {Watch the trailer.} Who doesn't love the minions, right? (July 10)

When intergalactic aliens discover classic video games and misinterpret them as a declaration of war, they attack Earth using video games for their assaults.

I can't wait to see Pixels!
ReplyDeleteI'm reading Armada next (probably starting it tonight or tomorrow)! Seraphina and the Black Cloak looks really interesting too!
ReplyDeleteWe love the Minions!
ReplyDeleteI've been loving Rachel Platten, too! She's definitely a rising star. Sometimes kids movies are really the best! I used to work at a babysitting service, so I've seen plenty of them. I was totally into High School Musical at one point and I still really like the 3rd one. They've been playing the Despicable Me movie a lot on TV lately and it's pretty good.

PS: Follow for follow? I always follow back !
There are some really fun movies this summer, looking forward to seeing Ant-Man.
ReplyDeleteI love this series of yours, it's how I find out about the new upcoming movies! I think the minions are cute, but I don't think i will be watching the movie since their "talk" hurts my head after a while. But like I said, I do think they're cute :P
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed the last mission impossible movie i watched (I can't remember which number it was) So I'm excited to see the new one too!

I don't love the minions :(
ReplyDeleteI think it's been ruined by really silly women on my FB who attach terrible quotes to photos of them...
There are a ton of movies coming out that I want to see, but probably won't see in theaters. Summer is so busy anyway I never have time for the movies, plus $$. I feel like all spare cash always ends up going to ice cream in the summer! :)
ReplyDeleteI whole-heartadly disagree that the Minions movie is a kids movie! I find that many Pixar movie´s and modern day animated movies are more suited for grown-ups than kids. I actually got to watch The Minions already and it is sooo funny and also features a few scenes and jokes, I am sure kids don´t get ;) So watch it and have fun ;)
