We all enjoy summer vacation. Three months of relaxation and traveling, but another great thing about the summer is all of the amazing movies that are coming out. From comedy to horror, this summer there are many different genres of movies set to be released. After interviewing some movie enthusiasts, here are the movies which people are looking forward to the most. The first interviewee stated, “I really want to see Jurassic World the Fallen Kingdom because it has more action and more of a fright factor and it is overall more exciting.” Another movie goer said “I loved the first Incredibles so much, Pixar has an excellent pedigree in making family-friendly movies that are also engaging and thoughtful and fun.” The final individual who was interviewed stated, “Mamma Mia would be the one that I would go see because I liked the first one and I’m hoping the second installment will be as brilliant as the first one. I love Mamma Mia, not just the story itself, but I fell in love with all the music of ABBA. People of all ages, especially people who grew up with their music, can relate and dance along to the soundtrack.”
