Xmen First Class

Saw it, loved it and will see it again.

I really liked the focus on character development this time around and Magneto, regardless if you have a hate on for all things Marvel, is just plain awesome.

The lack of AAA movie stars was also pretty refreshing. Well, that and the lack of wife-beater wolverine (he uses gel in his hair, I swear!).

I'm hoping this streak of good super hero flicks continues, because Thor was really cool too (Ms. Portman.... soooooooooo hot, except for that one scene in Star Wars).

Anyone excited for Captain America?

Whoa, whoa, I did *not* say I hated everything Marvel: I said I have a near-pathological hate of the X-Men films, for a variety of reasons! I demand an accurate retelling of the situation, not Canadianized versions!

As for the movie, I'll see *if* someone wants to pay my way...which pretty much excludes anyone that is ever going to read this post.

And in reality, I'm actually too busy praying--every day!--that the Green Lantern movie doesn't suck. (At this point I'd be happy if it was Thor good, and I didn't even much care for Thor.)

I'm optimistic about Cap but, man, the CGI job on Steve Rogers, pre-CA, is kinda...scary. (Scary bad, not scary awesome.)

Yes, Mr. Non-fan, your love knows no bounds.

If it was Guy Gardner, maybe we wouldn't have to deal w/ Van Wilder as Hal Jordan =/
