Quiet day today. Anybody seen any good movies? I hear wolverine was trash, but I'm not going to bother. They botched X3 so badly they don't deserve any of my $$$. I'm ready for a full reboot that sticks to the comics more than tries to fit the characters into the real world.

I'd give it a try. Like the rest of the flicks there is just a ton of stuff off about the whole mess. I looked past the fact that Huge Jackoff is a terrible Logan and the storyline is way off. It was actually a pretty good rendering of (a) version of Logan. Despite the hype and low expectations I set it did not turn out too bad.

Now, Logan and (character deleted to avoid spoilage) ride into (town deleted) on motorcycles in the fashion Johnny Blaze and Dan Ketch would in the Ghostrider movie I would have made. A ton of frame and caps do an awesome job capturing frame art styles seen in comics.

I'd say catch it at a cheap matinee, sneak in snacks, and settle in with a foutain drink on a hot day.

Meh I'll wait til it shows up on cable. I'm going to give Terminator a shot later this month though. Christian Bale's been on fire lately. So, I'm hoping he read the script and knows it's going to be good. I could easily see them going way way wrong with it though.

bout 1/4 of the way in I had to just turn of my head 'cause I was starting to mutter to myself. It's really not bad, though Logan's a bit , well overly emotive for him.

I can only do that for movies in their own little universe that they create. If it's about a book or based on something I already know about I can never just turn my brain off. I just get more and more upset by the stupid junk they change that ends up worse than the material they had to start from.

Star Trek and Terminator is also on my list. Not so sure why Trek is, but I've seen all the Terminator movies in the theater or the drive-in and this one looks pretty bad-ass.

ADD: There are so many alternate X-verse thingies that I don't really have a favorite. Daredevil suffered endlessly for the reason you noted. Miller Man Without Fear is my favorite, but without giving props to other writers I guess there would have been static. The last Punisher flick was the shit!

They're doing a good job of promoting Star Trek. I'm boycotting for the crappiness that is Lost. Both J.J. Abrams projects. I'll catch both Wolvie and Trek on cable sometime I'm sure.

Actually after Terminator I'm not sure there's anything I'm waiting to be released this summer. For shame hollywood. Seriously there have to be at like 10 movie franchises that are like shooting fish in a barrel and there's like 1 movie I want to see? Lame.

For instance I heard the rumor they were shooting the next to Spiderman movies back to back. That's the way to go really. Get a killer franchise and just get a cash hose and point it at the stars. Get them to hang around twice as long and you'll cut down the lag time between movies a ton and people will still show up. It's not like Lord of the Rings suffered releasing each part one year after another. Put like a 2 year span between Spiderman movies and just roll in the piles of cash you'll make. There are a ton of spidey villians to work with and there's always an opening to revive past ones.

Well, I'm planning on seeing the Wolverine movie for one reason and one reason only: Gambit. I was extremely upset that Gambit wasn't in X3, but with him in this movie, I really want to see how they portray him. I won't have any of the issues that MSA had, since I hate comic books with a passion (but love the comic book movies, so it's just the reading material that I have issues with, not the content. I even refuse to read the serenity comics.)and I have no clue what is supposed to happen. X3 was a major disappointment, but since a matinee ticket in this town is only $2.50, I don't see a problem with finding out if they managed to do something better this time.

I went to see Wolverine at the midnight showing with my brother and some of his friends, all of whom know more about X-Men than I do (I know a little prior movie trivia, but I didn't buy comics on a regular basis or watch the cartoons).

Gambit was their favorite going into the movie; I think that was one of the reasons at least one of them was in attendance too. They said Wolverine wasn't too far off the mark in some ways, that Gambit was better than some portrayals of the others, but a small letdown overall in comparison with the coolness that should have been (even though they still said he was cool), and

Select to view spoiler:


at least Xavier was mostly like himself! In his all of 2 minutes of botoxed/CG'ed screen time... :P (seriously, what was wrong with his face?)



So... I guess if you're a die-hard fan you'd be a little let down, but they all agreed (as did I) that it was vastly better than X3 which was a travesty that never should have made it past the draft stage. They rated it an 8/10. I gave it an 8.5, subject to reevaluation.

Oh, and I'm counting down until Star Trek, but I'm not sure if I'll go see it Friday if the show time conflicts with the last Dollhouse episode this season.

Gah, all I want to do is browse fff.net with fellow Browncoats on this rainy spring night, but essays are demanding to be graded before tomorrow. The thread title, bubble baths and chocolate, sounds good too!

Nope, just watched several episodes of the anime (in Japanese, with subs)and discussed it with a few people. If there was an actual novel of it I might read it, same as Serenity or any of the other ones that sound interesting, but I just can't seem to handle reading material that focuses more on pictures than the words.

I even had a class in college that used a glorified comic book (otherwise known as a graphic novel)as one of the many textbooks we had to read. I could only make it halfway through, and got that far because I had to write a paper on it. Had a great debate in class over the effectiveness or lack thereof of the genre to show the realities of war.

Ah, well I feel sorry for you then, cause you're missing out on some good stuff.

I'll tell you the same thing I tell other people, graphic novels are just novels that show you what something is supposed to look like instead of telling you.

And regular novels tend to focus on pictures as well, but instead of showing it to you they want you to picture it mentally. I've read novels that go on for two or three pages just describing a building or something like that.

I never really got into comics as a kid. I've only read some now for Firefly, Buffy and Angel. I gotta say it's not my favorite genre. They seem sooooo short to me. Everytime I finish one I just go "that's it?". I expect them to be like an episode of TV and they're more like 1/4 of an episode at best.

Regular novels do describe things so that you can picture them in your mind, but no two people ever picture it the same, even though the same words were used to evoke the image. Even the same person reading the book twice can see different things due to greater experience than the first time that they had read it. The pictures aren't set in stone, there is no right or wrong way to see what is happening. The focus is on the words and how the words thread the images through your mind instead of on the images themselves. It's a subtle difference, but still enough that it can be noticed, even if both genres make you see the image of a building.

It's like the difference between a television show and a radio show. Both have actors, both are written to entertain, but one focuses more on the visuals, while the other has to focus on sound effects and words to give the same idea. The effect is the same, in that you will understand what is going on, but there is still the subtle difference in the way that they do it, and some people respond to one way better than the other.

It's just personal preference, like enjoying scifi more than westerns (or vice versa).

The thing is they already did the little flashforward of what the kids would look like in that situation. So, it can't be her. Plus wouldn't the kids he's telling the story to know the name was the same as their mother's?

edit: I've decided they're just yanking our chain. Last week was about calling a girl the day you get her number and Ted said "and kids when I got your mother's number I called her the first day and blah blah". They would have known about the next episode by then and why would they put such a shady line in the script? He might have called her, but it would have been to see that really bad movie with all her friends that he thought was a date but clearly wasn't.

I hope it goes this way:

Ted stares longingly at Stella. They share a "Hi" and "Hey". Stepping closer Stella falls into Teds arms, he embraces her lovingly. As Stella looks into Teds eyes she mutters, "I missed you so much." Stella begins to tear up. Ted wipes them away before softly saying, "I missed you so much Stella..."

"Psych!" Ted screams into Stellas face. She winces in disbelief at Teds callous remark.

I would add Ted spitting in her face or pushing her down to kick her in the tits but lets face it, Teds a bitch. Plus I'm sure the old people Naziz at CBS would keel over dead to see it even suggested in a script. Funny how the censor humor but murderers and sex criminals get featured all over shows with forensic investigators who can't stop flashing their breasts every two minutes.

I love How I Met Your Mother, but at CBS I feel most of what we do is see B.S.

Annoying? I would have accepted boring or uninteresting, but annoying is unacceptable. I went to a burlesque show in vegas once and by the end I was like *yawn* but I was never like "these topless women are making me upset!" I apply the same rule to cleavage.

The stupid part is that there are great ideas out there that they just aren't using. I mean for the x-men they could have some killer movies. I don't know why the heck they didn't do a sentinels movie. They can show humans being all mutantist. They can have crazy action scenes. It'll be expensive from a CGI standpoint but I bet it would make boat loads of money if they action is good enough.

How about Apocalypse? That movie could be awesome too. He's like the scariest X-villain IMO. He's crazy powerful, practically immortal and hell bent on annihilation. There should be plenty of action there too.

It's like they want to half ass the X-men. Just go all out already!
