I saw about the same number of movies this summer as last summer.  Taking a look at my rankings from last year, I had more movies that I ranked in my top 2 categories.  On the other hand, I had 6 movies versus 3 movies that I ranked as "Awful" -- last year I named this category "Oh mercy."  So that means this year has way more movies that were worth watching, but not fantastic.  So which summer was better 2011 or 2010?  I'll go with 2011.
