The Wolverine is pretty good. Just stop at the third act and go straight to the end credits bit.

The third act has issues, that's for sure. I wish that they had just kept it like the comic, but they felt the need to GO BIG. That's unfortunate, because the first two acts keep it small and focused on character with some really solid action scenes thrown in there (the train sequence is particularly strong).Originally posted by MartinWho the fuck is Kellan Lutz?Originally posted by gravediggerBasically what I'm saying is that, based on what I've watched so far, we should all listen to Matt more often.Originally posted by MartinAnd who the FUCK is Peaches Geldof?
Kellan Lutz's girlfriend?

I didn't care for it. It wasn't bad, it just wasn't particularly engaging, but I don't think Wolverine is an especially interesting character to begin with.I experienced an invasion of my mind by a transcendentally rational mind, as if I had been insane all my life and suddenly I had become sane.

I didn't say they were 'bad', but I thought Avengers, Amazing Spider-Man, and Nolan's last Batman were all really disappointing.* There were certainly bad elements in all of them, though.
I'm not snobby about superhero films at all. But I'm definitely not as attached to the characters as some posters, so I think I'm a little less inclined to make allowances for the lazy storytelling and baggy running times that have marred some of the movies.
*And more recently, the last Stark opus.Last edited by Bobby Bear; 11-27-2013, 04:07 PM."The bear is a solitary animal. They like their space. They live in a magic circle. They don't mind if you're, like, a mile away. But if you get inside their circle, they will maul you." - Anonymous

Respectfully, I disagree with ya on Avengers and Iron Man 3. Those two I enjoyed the hell out of. That being said, I'll politely ask Russ if he can cut down the mongoose's PCP intake prior to your fight.

Well I don't wanna kill the little fella. Or the mongoose.
You should go in MST3K style for Rises if you ever find yourself sitting down to watch it. Most people end up identifying more with Bane than anyone else in that film. He should have been the hero.
It is the silliest fucking movie of the past several years.Me quick one want slow

Amazing Spiderman, forgettable and pretty bad.
The Avengers? Flawed, but SO FUCKING AMAZEBALL.
And Iron Man 3 is by far the best standalone Marvel flick*.
