WannaGo Posted October 21, 2009 Report Posted October 21, 2009 Just saw Wolverine last night and loved it. What did you guys think?
lvdkeyes Posted October 21, 2009 Report Posted October 21, 2009 I see that kind of movie only because my bf likes them. Given my druthers, I would skip them. He sees movies with me that are not exactly his cup of tea also, so I can't refuse to go with him.
Beer Chang Posted October 22, 2009 Report Posted October 22, 2009 I read all the early issues of X-Men comics. Good way for kids to learn to read.

lvdkeyes Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 He has already downloaded it and watched. He would agree with you.
finebyme Posted October 31, 2009 Report Posted October 31, 2009 In the first X-men installment (out of the Trilogy), a love loomed out between Wolverine and Rogue, which is of a kind so familiar that even if it was a special effects movie, it is now in my top ten romantic movies list of all time.

She might have had a little-girl crush on him, but he made it quite clear that it wasn't going to happen. The only relationship that developed between them was big brother-little sister, not romantic. That would have just been creepy. Wolverine's love interest in the movie was Jean Grey.
eleothegreat Posted November 3, 2009 Report Posted November 3, 2009 As a kid, we used to have these playing cards with X Men characters on them along with power stats like stregnth, agility, mental power etc. I wonder if you've had those playing cards as kids as well.

Yes, I meant Jean Grey, played by Famke Jansen. I am sorry I got mixed up with my x-men characters.

eleothegreat Posted November 8, 2009 Report Posted November 8, 2009 That went on till the early nineties. I remember the ice cream store in our city where we would buy the magazine, and read it inside while eating ice cream. Weee

Those kinds of places are long gone in most parts of the US, I think.
