Eh, I dunno. Most of the disappointments were expected to be disappointments, and many of them were actually better than their box-office results. For what they were--and how poorly people expected them to perform after word got out that they were clunkers--"MiB3", "Snow White", and "Dark Shadows" were actually better than I expected; not great, by any means, but certainly worthy of killing 2 hours with a matinee ticket. I loved "Cabin In The Woods". "Avengers" needs no explanation. "Prometheus", while flawed, delivered. And then there's some dude dressed like a bat coming up soon...

Avengers = Great
Dark Shadows = no
Battleship = no
MIB3 = no
Snow White = meh
Madagasgar 3 = decent
Prometheus = great but flawed
Sandler and Rock of Ages = meh


Disappointing summer up to this point
