I don't hate Kirby. I hate people who wanna be Kirby. I love the stuff Kirby has designed. The Thing, Etrigan, the X-Men. Ijust didn't dig Fourth World, so logically, I'm not going to dig some yahoos trying to redo it.
You know, one of the few things Marvel has gotten really, really right about the X-Movies is translating the look, without making them look goofy. Red eyes would have been goofy. Gambit looks fine.
Meh, Sweeney Todd is the only movie that I've not enjoyed Rickman in. I have no faith in Tim Burton, at all. The man does great things with visuals, but is very, very hit or miss with his actors.
