  1. A few times it just seemed that maybe Hugh wasn't exactly all the way in character, but I'll readily admit that I liked his other roles, so that might just be me seeing the parts of his other movies that I liked while watching Hugh as Wolverine.

  2. I don't really care for Hugh Jackman.  I really had this high standard of what Wolverine was and what Logan would be like, but Jackman only kinda got to the bottom floor, so to speak.  I mean, he has the 'tude down, but sometimes I just didn't buy that he was the ol' Canucklehead.

    Personally, I think he looks damn good as Logan. Not as grizzled, but who's to say the movie Logan is as old as the comics Logan?

    Oh, he's got the look. It's just that sometimes I saw pieces of people that weren't Wolverine in there. The flip side of that is sometimes I saw exactly what I envisioned as an awesome Wolverine.

  3. Truly, I'd like to see a Wolverine movie, where they flesh out some cool aspects of his character.  He's always been my favorite and the one with the most interesting past.  He's over a hundred years old!

    I remember reading (though I don't know where) that if X-Men 3 should not be made, a Wolverine solo picture will automatically be green lit. I've also heard (again, I can't provide a source) that this will be the last X-Men film, however, a Wolverine spin-off series will pick up from there. In both cases Hugh Jackman would, of course, play the title role.

  4. Bryan Singer is redoing Logan's Run? :lol:

    Am I alone in losing all interest in the Dark Phoenix storyline? Seems like every story ever involving Jean has hinted toward, if not completely rehashed, this old-ass story. It was tremendous when first released, but come on... after seeing it again half a dozen times, I'm ready for something different.

    Even Days of Future Past would be better than another Phoenix story.

    Is Days of Future Past where some X-Men from the past, namely Kitty, Wolverine, and Colossus, travel through time to prevent the world from being overrun by sentinels because that's exactly what happened in their time?

    I love that one.

    The Dark Phoenix arc is one that I've seen done in the comic and the animated series, it can only be worse than those because they were so well done.

  5. The thing about these movies is that they preyed upon one's sense of stability and feeling of safety. However ludicrious the means of death in the movie, people were still frightened. It's because the whole idea of sleep being this safe haven is completely destroyed. I mean, how can you stop something that attacks you when your guard is completely down? You can't and audiences acknowledged this fact. I was one of those kids who could watch a movie and realize that it was fiction, but this was one of the first movies that really frightened me. I had Freddy nightmares for weeks, and was convinced that I would die. Terrible. I only just got back into these movies.

    Of these movies, I voted for Dream Warriors as my favorite. That was one that I saw for the first time on Halloween, my 8th grade year. Vulnerability made Freddy a better character.

  6. Seeing that I ruined this thread back in the oratory, I might as well resurrect it here. Naruto is my current manga obession. Its a tale about an unwanted 12 boy who wants to become the best ninja in his village. While I have yet to watch any of the anime episodes, I like :wub: the manga. Shonen Jump carries Naruto and I think also compiles it into manga form. If you can't wait for the slow ass translators at Shonen, try looking for the translated up to date issues online.

    The anime is awesome! Just you wait until you see the Rock Lee v Gaara fight. You'll piss your pants. It's that good.
