I don’t think I gotta ask because we already know what the dominant movie for 2009 is going to be, but I thought I’d post up all of the trailers for this summer’s most anticipated films. Hopefully by posting more then 1 video I will help satisfy the criticism coming from some our feminist readers who think I’m too one-sided just because I happen to have a penis that makes me more superior then them in every way. Except of course for housekeeping and driving dangerously too fast or alarmingly too slow. Oh, and taking way too much pride in minor accomplishments like running a mile in less then 9 minutes, or beating level 3 in Mario Bros. on their 15th try, or “only eating a yogurt for lunch”.
There you go ladies… Consider myself humbled…
