That new Eddie Murphy movie looks beyond horrible.
I like Eddie, and always give him the benefit of the doubt. But this new movie where he plays a robot controlled by tiny people in his head just looks.....I can't even find the word.

Posted: 5/2/08 at 10:53amWhat was Eddie Murphy's last live-action comedy hit? NUTTY PROFESSOR? That was over ten years ago!

Norbit. Last year.
Edit - I think it actually made money.

Posted: 5/2/08 at 10:55amIt's going to be a looooooooooooong summer. Lets hope the art house scene coughs up a ONCE, BLACK BOOK or LA VIE EN ROSE.

I will admit to being awed by the kick-assery in The Hulk trailer.
And Tropic Thunder* looks HILARIOUS!!
*awesome Tom Cruise cameo was leaked. It's truly side-splitting.

Posted: 5/2/08 at 11:06amI hate to say it, but I think IRON MAN is going to be a surprise flop.
re: Nerve.com predicts the Top 5 Bombs of the summer of 2008#12
Posted: 5/2/08 at 11:07amI am so NOT interested in Iron Man.
re: Nerve.com predicts the Top 5 Bombs of the summer of 2008#13
Posted: 5/2/08 at 11:53am
must disagree, iron man is getting very strong reviews
re: Nerve.com predicts the Top 5 Bombs of the summer of 2008#14
Posted: 5/2/08 at 11:56amTrue. But is the average moviegoer interested?

Posted: 5/2/08 at 12:00pmI don't think IRONMAN is going to be that strong at the boxoffice.

The art house indy surprise hit this year is going to be "Son of Rambow."
It could be huge.

When I die and am sent to hell the in-flight movie will be Kung Fu Panda. Jack Black is absolutely the most annoying human being on the planet!
He was OK in That John Cusack movie when he was supposed to be the most annoying man in the record store, but after that, he has never ever given a performance I could sit through without literally screaming with hatred for him.

I honestly think that You Don't Mess With The Zohan, The Love Guru, and that Eddie Murphy movie are going to be among the flops of the summer. I have to disagree with The Incredible Hulk being a bomb at the box office(I'm at least hoping it doesn't bomb). It looks really, really good and hopefully it'll be worlds better than the first Hulk movie that and Abomination is in it too.
This is actually the first movie site I went to where TDK top the list of top 5 hits of the summer. Everywhere else the prediction for number one has been Indiana Jones and The Kingdom of The Crystal Skull.
I will say that Speed Racer will probably be a box office hit, but it will get mostly negative reviews. It looks like crap.
