Roy did you not watch the 90s cartoon? Apocalypse was a huge part of it. Also the 90s books. Same with Mr. Sinister. My two favorite x-villains

 

Nope.

 

I pretty much disconnected from media for the better part of the 1990s. No grunge music, no television, no radio, no movies. Missed it all.

 

But it sure was fun hearing Foo Fighters and Alice in Chains for the first time after the 1990's were gone!

 

 

Were you in a sensory deprivation chamber?

I actually liked DOFP for it's storyline, I think it developed and played out nicely. Even though it wasn't filled with non-stop action like Cap 2, I felt that it showed that comic movies don't all have to be balls-out action and that story/pacing can still make it entertaining.

 

Honestly, I was expecting it to kind of suck (but I was going to see it anyway) and I was pleasantly surprised with how solid it was.

 

 

I like you, but sorry...you thought Sucker Punch was "art", so I cannot take any movie review from you without a grain of salt ;)

Empowered female strippers trapped in a mental institution using their minds to fight 50 foot samurais in schoolgirl outfits while hanging from a helicopter shooting machine guns? How can you NOT call that art?

So, I was minding my own business at home today. Just playing in the yard with my dogs. When my wife comes out and says to me, "wanna go see the new X-Men movie tonight?"

 

I laughed and said, "okay, what did you do this time?"

 

She said, "I just thought we could go see it. I didn't do a damn thing. Geesh".

 

I said sure.

 

We went to the 9:55 Pm showing. We were the only ones in the entire screening. We were alone.

 

The movie pretty much sucked, although it was cool seeing Quicksilver do his thing. He is much faster than Flash has been portrayed on screen. But he had only a small part in this movie.

 

Other than that. Same ole-same ole.

 

I don't know if I am just getting used to these modern superhero movies, or if they are rushing them out with dazzling special effects and not paying attention to the story.

 

I just know that ASM 2 and this X-Men DOFP weren't that good.

 

Two questions for y'all.

 

Did Stan Lee have a part in this moive?

 

What the heck was that trailer about, after the credits? I just didn't recognize anything about it.

 

 

I am not sure if you are kidding or not but the after credit scene was Apocalypse building his chamber with the four horsemen in the back ground

 

 

Agree......

 

As for the spoiler part, I thought he looked aweful, but I liked the other part you mentioned.

 

I didn't see the movie just yet but I neighbor and I were talking about it and he asked me who the new female villain was in the end credits scene. That did not sound promising for the design of one of my favorite villains.

 

Exactly what I saw. A powerful female in ancient Egypt. I have no clue who that is supposed to be.

 

My wife asked me, "who is she?". When I told her I don't know. She was astonished. (shrug)

 

Well, you've only read 10 comics in the past 45 years, right?

 

Give or take. But I read a whole lot ABOUT comics.

 

Oh and :hi: professional shill.

I chose not to watch TV, movies or listen to the radio. Pretty much.

I have not seen Sucker Punch, but if it features 50 foot samurais in school girl outfits, that sounds like a very interesting flick.
