Default Which Summer movies are you going to blind buy this year??

For the blind buyer, which summer movies will you be blind-buying simply because you know you will not watch it in theater this summer? and why?

For me, I think I won't be going to the movies much this summer so I'm just gonna blind buy some of the titles I feel I will like, such as:

Indiana Jones 4 (feel like I need to watch this to complete the trilogy)
Kund fu Panda (looks interesting enough)
The Happening (Trailer looks entertaining. Like these type of movie)
Wanted (simply cuz I'm an action fan)
Hellboy 2 ( looks exciting and cuz it's a sequel)
Tropic Thunder ( like the concept)

Titles I will see in theater and will buy for sure:
Iron Man
Dark Knight
The incredible Hulk
Hancock
The Mummy 3


Personally, I don't see a lot of great movies this year. Though, I know other people will disagree with me. However, this year does seem to have more quality movies compared to the quantity of last year. I'm really excited to own those titles on Blu ray and cannot wait to see them.

I've made this mantra of not blind buying anything because it's such a hassle getting rid of bad titles (I am a bit of an obsessive compulsive).

Will watch in the the theaters to confirm my purchase:
1. The Happening (The trailer seems like a rip from Haneke's "Time of the Wolf". I'm intrigued where the similarities end)
2. Wanted (After "A Mighty Heart", I've become a fan of Angelina Jolie and is directed by that guy who made those Russian action films... will be going in to be entertained)
3. Dark Knight (I'm going in for the Villain because the whole Batman thing is more of a watch once kind of a thing for me, not a purchase)

I don't really go to the theater anymore so just about any new movie is going to be a blind-buy for me. I am considering going to see Prince Caspian, The Dark Knight and The Hulk at the theater though. So, it's possible those 3 won't be blind-buys.

Apparently I'm now blind-buying 'Dark City' and 'Doomsday' seeing as how I just pre-ordered them.

I won't be blind buying any of the summer movies I want to see. I'll be seeing them in the theater first.

I'll be getting Dark Knight, Iron Man, WallE, INdy 4 for sure....

If Hulk doesn't suck i'll get it to....

But i'll see all those in the theaters, I mean come on guys it's summer(Plus i get union tickets for $6.00 )

As far as blind buy, I'll probably pick up Sarah Marshall since Superbad was
so funny....

Mummy 3 better be real good to consider...
