Have we learned yet how his name is pronounced?
-
I gave it 3 stars. It was entertaining, and nicely done, but I felt like I've seen the same movie already several times.

Film Serial Franchises That Died After One

It's probably still a bit early to call this one, but my hunch is that Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief will qualify for this category. -

Film Serial Franchises That Died After One
Benjamin Grimm replied to Edgy MD's topic in Film Review Forum
The Rocketeer was intended to be a franchise, but it didn't do well at the box office. And that's a shame; it was a nice little movie. I bought it on DVD a few years ago for my kids to watch and they both liked it a lot. As did I. -

The Rocketeer Daredevil -
I voted 6, liked it but didn't love it. (My ten-year-old daughter liked it a lot.) I did like the bladder meter and wish I had one.
-
I'm hoping we'll see him in Flushing by June 1, 2012.
-
I can see a guy like that fitting in to the Mets roster next year as a reserve infielder, especially if Murphy somehow becomes a starter. Satin could replace Willie Harris, I'd think. (Can he play outfield in a pinch, I wonder?)
-
I really enjoyed it. Got a special kick out of the quick glimpse of the Original Human Torch.
-
1. Captain America: First Avenger 2. X-Men: First Class 3. Thor: First Asgardian Have not yet seen any of the others. I'll wait for Green Lantern until it comes to cable. May end up doing the same for Cowboys and Aliens. I loved Cap, and really liked X-Men. Thor wasn't as good as I hoped it would be, but was better than I feared it would be.
-
Maybe he saw a hill or something equally un-Floridian and became disoriented.

I thought the first Cars movie was cute, but not up to Pixar's standards. (At least it was better than Wall-E). Of all the movies to make a sequel to, I'm surprised that they chose Cars. (I'd prefer to see more of A Bug's Life or The Incredibles.) Cars 2 will be the first Pixar movie that I don't intend to see. It's easier for me to skip it because my kids are older and not asking to see it. My only regret is that in skipping Cars 2, I miss the Toy Story short that accompanies it. I'll have to make sure to track it down somewhere, eventually.

Well... I haven't seen his birth certificate, so I have to assume he was born in Kenya.
-
Opened this past Friday. I think I'm gonna wait until it's on cable; it doesn't look like it's worth the price of the movie tickets. I'm willing to overlook that for a Marvel movie, but not so much for a DC movie.
-
Ask him how he pronounces his name. I'm hoping it's "Leather Sick"
-
I also gave it 3.5. I liked it a lot, although your first Head-Scratcher occurred to me too, and was nagging at me throughout the entire movie. They should have come up with some explanation for that. I think it was the second-best of the X-Men movies. (I should point out that I didn't see Wolverine.) I liked First Class more than the first and third movies of the original trilogy. X-Men 2 remains my favorite X-Men movie.
-
Did AMC butcher it? They used to be the station that showed movies uncut and uninterrupted, but now they show them cut and interrupted.
-
Very cute trailer, but I wouldn't spend movie theater prices to see it. Maybe I'll watch it when it comes to cable... but probably not.
-
That's pretty much how it went in the early comics. The movie, fortunately, went a different direction. Thor got banished from Asgard, but was always aware that he was Thor.
-
Internet buzz says it's the Cosmic Cube, though I noticed nothing cube-like in that box. I'll have to look for a screen shot online so I can take a fresh look.
-
I've never heard of him, but my in-depth knowledge of the Marvel universe is fuzzy for the last couple of decades. I'm much better on the earlier stuff, so perhaps he's a more recent character. I voted OKC, by the way, without knowing what it meant. Oklahoma City?
-
Saw it last night, and I enjoyed it. I have to think, however, that if I didn't have a life-long affection for the Marvel characters, I would have thought it pretty silly. Had one near-goosebump moment, when (and this isn't a spoiler) Thor gets reunited with his hammer. Some of the characters were very well cast: Odin, Fandral, and Loki looked like they stepped right off the comics page. Volstagg, not so much. The after-the-credits scene left me a bit confused. I got the character-driven part, but not the one related to the object.
