    Thor and Captain America were both awesome. I loved Thor, but when I came out of Captain America I said "I have to admit, that was better than Thor", to which my Iron Man-loving buddy had to chime in Iron Man was better (I disagreed, but mostly just to bug him).


Yeah, I'd agree with him, but Thor and Cap were both great fun anyway.

    I saw Green Lantern last week in the cheap seats (I reviewed it at my blog, http://doeswhateveracomicsblogcan.blogspot.com), but I'll save you a click; my review was "I should've gone to see X-Men: First Class). I had heard X-Men was far superior, but since I'd heard GL wasn't that great I thought I should see it in theaters so at least maybe the special effects could help carry it...I was extremely bored throughout the whole film, checking my watch a couple of times to see if it was over.


I went to check your review and ended up watching that X-Men cartoon instead. I had vague recollections of it from when it originally aired, but I hadn't realized until I saw it again that it was the basis of the X-men arcade game.

And you are right, for it's time it was damn impressive. Still, I'm not surprised that it wasn't picked up... It was such a bizarre mismatch of heady ideas and childish plotting and childish dialog. Oh, and Stan Lee has never been good at VoiceOver narration. Ever.

    X-Men will be a DVD viewing for me, only because with the drive to the theatre and a 4 month old it's pretty hard to get out to a movie, let alone 4.


I think it comes out this weekend on DVD here in the states. I'm looking forward to seeing it.
