HAVE YOU NOTICED...NO 5 STARS...there will always be something in the movie where i would say...."Huh?!? really...That was stupid...they could've have just did it like......."
so what are your thoughts....
Yeah, this summer will be packed with flicks that a lot of us will be checking out. I think it's kinda cool that two period superhero movies will be playing. Speaking of which, I'll start off my reply with one of them.
ReplyDelete-- Captain America. Out of all the movies this summer, I'm actually looking forward to Cap the most. From everything I've seen so far, this appears to be character driven first and foremost. I've actually grown to like the character a good deal over the years, and seeing a movie devoted to his origin looks like it will be a lot of fun. But fun with substance. "Substance" being something that the Iron Man 2 people forgot to include in their sequel. So it's probably a very good thing that Cap has the director from The Rocketeer.
-- Thor. I'm a big fan of the Walt Simonson run. I'm also a fan of John Buscema and Jack Kirby's work on the character. Will the movie do Thor justice? I don't know, but I do get a kick out of seeing the Destroyer armor in the trailer.
-- Transformers 3. I hope Bay somehow makes up for screwing up Devastator. Will he? Probably not.
-- X-Men: First Class. When Singer left to do Superman Returns, we had two superhero franchises that became poorer for it. Now he's producing this X-Men installment, and the director for Kick-Ass is directing it. Still, I didn't care about First Class -- until I saw the trailer. This second period superhero movie of the summer looks like it's taking the X-Men movies back to what made them work in the first place. There's a seriousness and an emphasis on the performances of Xavier and Magneto conveyed in the trailer. Looks like it will be a much better outing than the ADHD-riddled direction of X3.
-- Green Lantern. I'm looking forward to this. When I first heard Reynolds was cast, I wasn't, but there's a lot of cool stuff in the latest trailer. It's going to be a kick to see the GL Corps unfold on the big screen!
-- Cowboys and Aliens. Favreau has much to make up for since IM2. Once a movie franchise proves itself (Spidey, the first IM), these days Marvel is even quicker in screwing it up by committee. Really, they didn't need to work in Nick Fury for IM2 to set up things further for The Avengers. Cowboys and Aliens looks like the movie Favreau can bounce back with, particularly because there won't be so many freakin' cooks in the kitchen.
In any case, it should be a fun summer!
