The AllMovie 2008 Summer Menu
May 8th, 2008 | 10:26 am est |
Our first summer feast was both delicious and nutritious (thanks to the high iron content), and with the festivities officially underway, we at AllMovie are ready to stuff our faces. So take a seat and have a look at this summer’s specials as AMG breaks down your movie food schedule for the coming months.

Zagat says: Who knew Zionist Judaism could be so hip and cool.

Space Chimps: Chocolate Banana.
Zagat says: Because chimps like bananas. Get it?
July 25
Step Brothers: Jungle Juice.
Zagat says: The lack of prep makes it easy, but can also make it rank — and there’s always the risk somebody peed in it.
X-Files: I Want to Believe: Mystery Flavor Dum Dum at the Bottom of a Bank Teller’s Jar.
Zagat says: Could be well past the expiration date, but mystery goes a long way.
The Longshots: Haterade.
