25+ summer blockbusters in 7 minutes

We’re now a good month into what’s felt like a lackluster summer-blockbuster season so far. (See ya, After Earth, The Hangover III, The Great Gatsby. Eyeing you warily, Pacific Rim and Planes.) As a sort of power-wash for our readers’ cinematic palates, The A.V. Club looked through roughly 30 blockbusters of summers past to assemble a supercut of memorable moments. (Note we didn’t say good. There is some Michael Bay involved.) Special thanks to Katie Rife for enduring the loud, punishing blockbuster gauntlet to put it together.
