The Stuff of Legends cover reminds me of B.B.Hood’s hyper combo attack.

Ryker, my thoughts exactly. The first ten minutes were fan fucking tastic, then everything just went down the drain in a big way. Bad script, bad acting (Except for Hugh, who gives it all he has despite the material), bad character decesions (He’s called the Merc with a MOUTH for a reason), and after all that waiting, Gambit was lame.

When the videogame is better then the movie, you have a MAJOR problem.

I’m not too picky when it comes to comic book movies, unless they’re characters that I’m really into like Batman or Iron Man. I’m one of the few who actually enjoyed X-Men 3. And while they were completely cheesy and kinda idiotic, I found the Fantastic 4 movies to be somewhat watchable. So yeah, I’m sure I’ll be alright with Wolverine.

Tiny and I saw Wolverine last Saturday and I have to agree that the movie showed great promise in the beginning, only to get bogged down with the same thing that a lot of the other Xmen movies suffer from…not enough character development. Don’t get me wrong, Hugh Jackman is the MAN, and I he really has the character down, but his supporting cast is mostly …meh. Even Gamibit felt thrown in and he deserves way better than that mon ami.

The one character who literally steals the show (for the 10 minutes he’s in the darn movei) is DeadPool. Ryan Renolds nailed his personna and left me wanting more. Luckily, Marvel is moving forward on a DeadPool movie with Ryan as the lead. Let’s hope they don’t screw it up!

I’m pretty jazzed about Blackest Night too. I don’t know if you’ve seen, but DC Direct and Wizard have sent out some stuff on action figures related to Blackest Night, and a couple of the Black Lanterns have been revealed. I won’t say which ones, but the info is out there if you’re curious. One of them I don’t care about at all and the other is a pretty big deal (at least to me).
