SO. Wolverine. Pretty awesome movie, yeah?

::rolls around with it in GLEE::


- The old lady was Heather Hudson! I'm guessing not the Alpha Flight member, though. pooh.
- It makes me sad that they were so quick to kill off everyone. No John Wraith? No Blob? No
- Has there ever been a more perfect casting than Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool?
- Speaking of, I'm sorely disappointed that the after-credits didn't show him, or at least them finding his body. What the hell? I stayed to watch Wolverine getting his drink on in Japan? pthbbbt.
- I still think Josh Holloway would've been a much better Gambit, but this one was pretty good.
- Speaking of Deadpool (belatedly), how excited am I that he's getting his own movie? SO EXCITED. I wonder who they'll cast as Blind Al. Bea Arthur would've been perfect. :(
- I'm not sure how I feel about the whole Sabretooth and Wolverine being brothers thing. I guess it adds an interesting dynamic to their relationship, but the comics geek in me is all 'REJECT!'
- I want to know now what happened to all the mutants that were rescued off TMI. I guess they'll be the subject of that First Class movie? Will they have Gambit, too? Whatever happened to him anyways? I guess this rules out any movieverse romance between him and Rogue.
- whoa, wait a minute. Kayla's sister is supposed to be Emma Frost? LAME. SO LAME. DO NOT APPROVE. >:(

I never get to use this icon anymore.

it was SO MANY KINDS OF AWESOME-- granted not so much in line with the comics, but it made no excuses for that and rewrote history in (imho) new and very cool ways.

Don't know Josh Holloway, but I did enjoy Gambit like woah. Ryan Reynolds was absolutely fantastic. And, yes, all around good time.

Especially Hugh Jackman's backside. *rawr*

Ohhh... I was waiting for the after-creedits but then we decided we'd probably seen the last scene and left. Darn it! Ah well, guess I'll have to just watch it again. *g*

It's funny because on one hand, I'm completely okay with the history being re-written, especially when it comes to these characters because things get so convoluted and confusing and you almost *have* to reboot their histories so that they make sense.

But then I also get indignant over certain things that they change. ahhh, comic book geeks - never ever completely happy.

Don't know Josh Holloway

OOOOOOOOOH. LET ME INTRODUCE YOU. (http://bestof.provocateuse.com/show/josh_holloway) (he is also in my icon, albeit wee)

also, you should google "josh holloway gambit" because I am not the only one who thought he would've been perfect. :D

yeeeah, he'd've been good. Older, though. I think the guy they got was still (meant to be) in that late teen/early twenty range...
