This season's fare:

Thor - surprisingly good! I really liked it, and I'm not a huge Thor fan.

X-Men - man, was this one a shocker. Early reports lead me to believe this was going to be a total stinker. The first few rumors supported this. Then it hit, and holy shite, it's an awesome movie! I really liked it, so much so that I'm thinking of seeing it again. I NEVER see a movie twice in a theatre any more.

Green Lantern - Man, what a dissappointment? I'm a fan of GL, have a ton of his comics, and was really hoping for a good movie. I like Ryan Reynolds as Hal Jordan, seems like a good fit. But the suit looks like shite, the CGI is way over done, there're way too many GL extras, and from what I hear, the story is crap. I'll wait for this one to come on HBO/Pay Per View.

Captain America - I didn't collect a lot of Cap's stuff, but I've always respected the character, and liked him in general. This movie may change all that, I may be buying lots of back issues.

Cowboys and Aliens - never collected any of the comics, but the concept looks cool, and I'm excited to see it.

There's a lesson here somewhere.

I'm right there with you on those two.

Green Lantern- I think I'll enjoy it for what it is. I hope I will. I said it in another thread but if this one can at least make enough to warrant a sequel, we'll be in for a very solid movie there. GL comic fans know what I mean. Don't want to spoil anything.

Captain America- I really thought this one would blow Thor out the water. Then Thor ended up being good so now I'm really expecting a cool WWII/science fiction mix with this one. Can Chris Evans pull off the Capt America personality? That's whats gonna sell it or sink it.

I hope Green Lantern does well, sequels would be nice for the local film crews.
