Hugh Jackman's Wolverine is phenomenal. Every movie he's been in has been awesome.

Xmen Origins was utter garbage.

That said, I don't know which is hokier: Demi-god or Amazonian Warrior Princess? But the whole "Demi-God" thing is an odd choice, IMO.

It's a recent thing from the comics. She's still an Amazon, but discovers as an adult that Zeus is her father. Considering that her old origin was that she was made from clay and given life by the gods, I think it's an improvement.

Not all. Black Widow has no superpowers.

I don't give two shits if She Hulk or Wonder Woman kick some ass. They're super powered. I just can't stand watching Angelina Jolie kick dudes' asses as just a regular ass trained human like in Salt, Mr and Mrs Smith, and Wanted.

If it makes you feel any better I get annoyed seeing small guys do the same. Like Tom Cruise in Jack Reacher. Guy's 5'7" taking on several 250 pounders at once. Bullshit.

Still a great movie though LMAO

They knocked Wolverine out of the park with Jackman.

Probably the best superhero casting of them all outside of Ledger as Joker and Downey Jr. as Stark,

I had to go look up the "there's no crying in baseball" scene just to watch it again. Great stuff:

No mention of Bales Batman?

He's the guy that started this whole new level of delirium.

With the announced female leads (Captain Marvel, Wonder Woman) and other potential female-led superhero movies (i.e. Warner rumored to be developing an all female Spider-Man spinoff) being discussed, I'm just wondering what this forum thinks of them. Will you have interest? Will you go watch them? Do you think they'll be big tits?

FYP ROFL

Yes, I think there will.

Gal Gadot does not have "big tits"

They are outstanding tits and I'd like to see them but they're not big.

Loved the movies but never cared for Bale.

I loved Sandahl Bergman in Conan the barbarian, and I thought it was too bad that she got stuck in low budget films.

Who do you all think would make a good Harley Quinn? I could see a Harley Quinn standalone movie garnering huge box office numbers if they got the right chick to play her. Of course it would be really hard to make a Harley Quinn without Batman or Joker part of it. Impossible almost.

The first X-Men movie in 2000, followed by the Sam Raimi directed, Toby McGuire Spider-Man film really launched the comic book craze. The Hulk missed the mark, big time, although Ed Norton's "reboot" was a better but not great. That's why they're still shy about another Hulk film but in my opinion, Ruffalo would kill it, with the right script, of course.

But what really launched Marvel into the stratosphere was Iron Man. From there, they've made very few mistakes.

I never gave a shit about Iron Man before that movie. Fantastic movie. The Dude as the villain? Just epic. The sequels weren't as good though.

I thought Iron Man 2 was unspeakably awful but I really liked Iron Man 3.

Shane Black and Robert Downey, jr. go together like beer and whiskey, IMO.
