Video Blog: 2009 Summer Movie Preview - Part 1

Steve from Collider is a good friend of mine. At least a few times a week we talk about upcoming movies, TV shows, what gossip each of us have heard, and anything else we might find exciting. Since a number of our conversations cover things you also might find interesting, we've decided to start recording certain conversations as video blogs. Past video blogs have included The Future of the Batman Film Franchise, The Box Office Prospects of Watchmen and thoughts on the first 46 Minutes of Pixar's Up

We were recently talking about some of the movies coming out this summer and realized we should do some video blogs about the 2009 Summer Movie season. We were a little too ambitious, and thought we could squeeze two months worth of films into one blog, but as usually happens, we ran out of time. So the first part of our Summer movie preview takes a look at the movies that will be released in May 2009: X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Star Trek, Angels & Demons, Brothers Bloom, Terminator Salvation, Pixar's Up, and Drag Me to Hell. We also talk briefly about this past week's episode of Lost. We're still working on audio issues, but we're getting close. Please leave your thoughts on the movies of May 2009 in the comments below.
