May 2016
Summer is just around the corner, which means that a ton of new films are about to come storming into theaters. Here are 20 summer blockbusters that will heat up the box office in 2016.
Captain America: Civil War, Release Date: May 6, 2016 Captain America Civil War, Disney, 042616 Disney Since we were first introduced to Robert Downey Jr.'s Iron Man back in 2008, all roads have been leading to Captain America: Civil War. It looks like Captain America is tired of taking orders from Tony Stark, especially when his BFF Bucky gets caught in the crossfire. We're about to see Cap go rouge against everything he once stood for. Though Chris Hemsworth's Thor won't be joining us for this battle, we will be seeing Black Widow, Hawkeye, and it will be our first look at Chadwick Boseman's Black Panther ahead of his own franchise debut. Oh and we'll also get a sneak peak at the new teen Spider-Man. Is it May 6th yet?
The Angry Birds Movie, Release Date: May 20, 2016 The Angry Birds Movie, Sony, Everett, 042616 Sony The Angry Birds became a gaming sensation that got us through dull commutes and even longer work days. Now, Jason Sudeikis and Bill Hader are about to bring these pissed off birds to life. In The Angry Birds Movie, the birds are content with their lives until some mysterious pigs invade their island paradise.

Through The Looking Glass, Release Date: May 27, 2016 Mia Wasikowska, Alice Through The Looking Glass, Disney, 042616 Disney Though it's been six years since Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland hit theaters, we are finally getting a sequel with Alice Through the Looking Glass.
