It's been four decades since the original "Star Trek" TV series was canceled, but the space opera that has lived on through reruns, spin-offs and movies gets a reboot from director J.J. Some films will be released in major cities first before working their way around the country and to the Berkshires. The release dates cited below are subject to change. There is something for everyone this summer - assuming they are worth seeing. It seems inevitable that Easter weekend will kick off the summer campaign soon enough.Īlong with the usual blockbusters and high- concept comedies, the 2009 summer campaign offers romances and prestige dramas, as studios seek to provide alternative fare to moviegoers. With too few summer weekends to go around, the season started creeping back into the spring. Memorial Day weekend used to be the official kickoff to the summer movie season, but with weekend box office grosses assuming a disproportionate influence in recent years, studios began shifting their summer releases around to avoid competing directly with a rival's tentpole picture.
Wouldn't it be great if summer in the real world began at the same time it does in the fantasy world of movies? Sure, we enjoyed a teasing taste of summer weather this past week, but the summer movie season begins for real today, one day past April, with "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" the first mega-budget, special effects blockbuster of the season.
