Summer movies

Ed and I used to go to the movies all the time, but lately not so much. But we're going to change that.

So far the only two movies I've seen this summer are Ironman and Indiana Jones: Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Both were excellent, with lots of action, explosions and humor. Robert Downey Jr. is perfect as Ironman, and Harrison Ford doesn't miss a beat as Indiana Jones, despite the fact it's been about 20 years since he donned the famous hat.

But two movies will be out soon that I'm really looking forward too:
*Wanted, starring Angelina Jolie as an assassin (picture Mr. & Mrs. Smith, only without Brad Pitt).
*And of course Batman: The Dark Knight, starring the late Heath Ledger as The Joker.

In the fall comes the next James Bond movie, Quantam of Solace. Since Sean Connery, has there really ever been a better Bond than Daniel Craig?

I also saw a preview the other day for a Brad Pitt movie that comes out this fall. Burn After Reading also stars George Clooney, John Malkovich and Frances McDormand, and is directed by the Coen Brothers. It looks fricking hilarious. Check out the red-band trailer below (that just means it's a little naughty), from iTunes.
