It has 'X-Men' in the title so Caroline committed me to seeing it a long time ago. Thor this weekend anyone?

I had no idea she was one of us, Dave.

Even though Thor is getting great reviews, I probably won't make it out this weekend. You?

Dave said...

Probably not, but I'm anxious to see it. He was never a favorite of mine, but I'm interested to see what Branagh does with the genre.

Caroline was a huge X-Men fan, which I find convenient as I stopped following in the 80s after the classic 'Phoenix' arc. She's able to fill me in on all the characters that didn't exist then (Rogue, Gambit, etc.)

I thought the X-men franchise kind of nuked the fridge with Last Stand.. opting for BIG!SPECIAL!FX! and poor screenplayism. Almost made me forget how much I liked X2. I never even saw On the Importance of Being Wolverine.

mmm, Famke. What were we talking about?

Thor is getting great reviews? This next X movie does look pretty cool, but I've long thought that the folks doing the previews should be the folks doing the movies. They manage to make (nearly) anything look great.
