If you haven’t seen Iron Man, stop reading and go. Why are you still reading this?

All right, now that you’ve sat through the awesome movie featuring Robert Downey Jr., just wait a few weeks because the summer of superheroes has just begun.

Up next is that lovable green giant, the Incredible Hulk. Sticking closer to the comics than the last Hulk movie, I’m dying to see how Edward Norton does in this role. We all know he can fight, but how angry can he get? Weighing in as the largest superhero of the summer, this movie looks like it will not disappoint.

It wouldn’t be summer without a Will Smith movie, and Hancock looks like the best antihero to come to our rescue. However with Jason Bateman as his comic promotions agent/sidekick, this movie seems to have a lot more promise than your normal hero movie. Plus, the direction Will Smith has taken lately in films is only going to help his career further down the road.

I’ve come to the realization that whatever Guillermo del Toro touches is Spanish gold. This summer everyone’s favorite cigar smoking, sarcastic red devil is back for Hellboy II: The Golden Army. As the world of fantasy dies, Hellboy must stop an army from invading the real world. Think Pan’s Labyrinth minus Ivana Baquero and add tons of monsters to keep Hellboy asking: how do I kill it?

Finally, two words: Bat, wait for it, Man. Much like Daniel Craig reinvigorated the James Bond franchise, Christian Bale has given new hope to fans that thought Batman movies were dead. Honestly, I don’t care what the plot is, Heath Ledger’s Joker looks completely demented, and I can’t wait to see him and Bale go toe to toe in Gotham. Viva la Dark Knight.
