Another Summer has come. And with it, another Summer Tentpole Season begins. If you read my preview last year, you’ll know I dumped all of the months together into one post. This caused a number of incorrect box office predictions (ones I would have made differently had I made them only a month or so in advance). To avoid duplicating that embarrassment (and allowing just regular embarrassment), I am going to be posting specific preview articles for each month. To start things off, my preview of May will be arriving on Friday. In this introductory article, I will give you the current release schedule for the Summer, which may change as the release dates get closer.
