Ten-word summer 2010 movie preview

Some of the hot movies coming out this summer, and which ones I'm most excited for (in exactly 10 words):

Shrek Forever After (this weekend): Major sequelitis, though alternate universe premise shows promise. Overall: Maybe.

Sex and the City 2 (May 27): Never watched the show or first movie. No plans here.

Marmaduke (June 4): Unnecessary movie for unfunny comic. Waste of George Lopez's talent.

The Karate Kid (June 11): Will watch the original and this one, then compare them.

Toy Story 3 (June 18): Toy Story rocks. Pixar rules. Cannot wait for this movie!

The Twilight Saga: Eclipse (June 30): Probably going to suck. Probably going to see it anyway.

Despicable Me (July 9): Annoying yellow henchman...things...in commercials killed any potential interest.

Ramona and Beezus (July 23): Loved the books. Trailer looks cute, fluffy. Maybe too fluffy.

Cats and Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore (July 30): Loved the first one. Should be good, clean, stupid fun.

Wow. Out of all those movies, the only original concept is "Despicable Me." Of course, these are just the movies that I know something about. I haven't been to the theater since Johnny and I saw "Avatar" so I haven't seen any previews aside from the ones I decided to track down on YouTube.
