In this 'ole wide world, there's no 'appier bloke than the star of the summer's biggest flick, but you might be a close second, movie fan!

5/10. I only know what I like; I'm a terrible judge of what's popular. :)
Missed #8. Really thought a sequel to a popular film would outdo a new movie.
9/10. Missed #5. Amityville Horror was bigger than Alien.
I guessed that one correctly and it surprised me, but Alien was not that popular on its initial run.

You must've been sleeping like a log through some of these summer flicks.
