Star Trek Into Darkness – May 17th

The first Despicable Me did very well at the box office and on TV. Many people love the minions and I am sure many will flock to see them again!
Monsters University – June 21st
It has been 12 years since Monsters Inc. came out. Pixar movies always does well during the Summer time. Monsters University will be no exception! But where is Incredibles 2?
The Lone Ranger – July 3rd
One movie genre lacking in recent years is the western. Disney will do very well with Armie Hammer being The Lone Ranger and Johhny Depp being Tonto.
The Great Gatsby – May 10th

After Earth – May 31st

The Wolverine – July 26th
The X-Men movies have always done well. And having Hugh Jackman as The Wolverine will sell a lot of tickets.
R.I.P.D. – July 19th
Someone tipped me off to this movie and after I saw the trailer, I edited this post to the top 11 movies! I think this movie will be a surprise hit!
I know some of you will say why World War Z was not mentioned. I really don’t think the movie will do well. Sure, it’s a zombie movie and zombies are hot right now. But when there’s production trouble and articles coming out saying around 40 minutes had to be re-shot because the ending was Disastrous, it makes me wonder if the movie will do well.
