Dan Hudak, a multimedia film critic and creator of HudakonHollywood.com, recently commented on the dismal Memorial Day weekend box office, which traditionally sets the tone for the summer movie season. According to Hollywood.com the number of tickets sold over the holiday weekend were about 23.4 million, the lowest since 1993.
Not even the stiletto-clad ladies of "Sex in The City 2" were daring enough to make a dent Memorial Day weekend, they shimmied into the third spot. Behind that came "The Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time" and the movie that raked in the most green for the second weekend in a row was "Shrek Forever After."
So what's to blame for the lusterless summer movie season? Check out Dan's comments to The Christian Science Monitor and go to his website HudakonHollywood.com to see which summer flicks are creating a buzz.
