Last weekend was the worst weekend for movies in 15 years. This has been a weak July and especially August for movies imo and the ticket sales have reflected it. Why cram things in May? Any time a good movie is released it will do well. LOTR did fantastic with a December release. The idea that blockbusters should only be released at certain times is wrong. I wish there was a good movie to bring the kids to before heading hack to school but nothing but garbage out right now.
