Summer blockbusters are locked and loaded.
With Iron Man hitting theatres today, that means the Summer Blockbuster Season™ is nigh! I know that our profits haven't been exactly something to write home to mum about, but it's been a rough road leading up to this point for KIDS flicks. While Miley was hot before she decided to show her ENTIRE BARE BACK OMG!!!eleven!1one! films like Spiderwick and Horton didn't exactly blow up the joint. And investing in the already bloated Summer flicks was difficult for a fledgling fund.
Well business is about to pick up.
Speed Racer with its non-stop marketing, merch, and live-action anime feel will be opening next Friday. Then, it's another week before Prince Caspian comes to visit. He's so dreamy. And to round out May, Indiana Jones comes out of retirement to tell us to get off his lawn in the fourth installment of the series.
We'll be filming our 8th episode of the Fundcast this weekend and as you may know, we're bullish on the Mach 5 beating back Racer X on May 9th. Should be entertaining be it a victory or a bloodbath.
And speaking of blood. I know the film is only in 5 theatres this weekend, but we really are pulling for an expansion of Son of Rambow. We saw the flick at the Atlanta Film Festival in a packed house and it was such a delightful and warm comedy about two boys who aim to remake the Stallone hard-R rated flick. It is magnificent and a rare film that both Colin and I agree on. Check it out!
