Summer 2011 - A bloodbath ahead?!

[_____V_____]

...at least Jon Favreau thinks so.

Talking to the L.A. Times' Hero Complex blog on Monday, the Iron Man director remarked that this coming summer is going to be the toughest crush ever:

"It's Omaha Beach, it's going to be a blood bath," the filmmaker said Friday about next year's crush of big special-effects films, remakes and sequels. "There's never been a summer like this next summer. It's going to be bloody [for filmmakers and the studios]. As we were sticking thumb tacks in a calendar we realized that this is going to be looked back upon as Omaha Beach."
