    So now its officially summer season, with Iron Man 2 and Prince of Persia kicking things off, what else are you looking forward to?

    for me the top of the list is Inception, Christopher Nolans new movie, with DiCaprio, Cillian Murphy, Joseph Godron-Levitt (fast becoming one of my favourite actors) and Michael Caine, it looks like a mind bending, Matrix-y action thriller. I've only seen the first trailer as I dont want to ruin it, but the corridor fight and train sequence look fantastic.

    Then you have the daddy of sequels of the summer, Toy Story 3, its been 11 years since TS2 so can this possibly live up to it? since its Pixar doing what they do best theres pretty much no chance this wont be at least brilliant.

    The A-Team, from the trailer it looks to have it tongue planted firmly in its cheek and its all the better for it, a serious version simply wouldnt work. If they keep it as fun as possible it could be the surprise of the summer.

    The Expendables, Stallone, Willis, Schwarzenegger, Jet Li, Statham, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Randy Couture, Mickey Rourke and Dolph Lundgren all in the same movie, a mans man movie if there ever was one :D

    I'd go with The A-Team, The Expendables and Inception too.

    Inception because I love Nolan, he can do no wrong and this film looks like a game changer to me.

    The A-Team looks ****ing ridiculous, yet it has an endearing charm from what I can see from the trailers. I always thought that Cooper, Copley and Neeson would work well together and from looking at the trailers I seem to be right. As for Jackson, he looks like a good modern take on BA.

    The Expendables, well, I have no idea why I'm looking forward to it. The dialogue seems ****ty, I have a feeling that the big scene in the church will just be awkward between three guys that probably don't even like each other and the story just seems to scream "America. **** yeah!" Yet, for some strange reason, I can't wait. :D

    Not sure if we'll get them in time for Summer but The Last Airbender and Predators will get a look.

    Films that I will be avoiding like the plague include Knight & Day, Eclipse, and The Karate Kid.
