I LOVED X-Men 1 and 2. If I had to change anything, I wish they made Magneto more powerful.

Magneto in the comics is arguably one of the most powerful mutants in the Marvel universe, but he just seemed like an older guy bent on killing off some humans in the movies. I love Sir Ian McKellen and loved the costume etc, but yeah.

Dark Knight was so awesome, too. Looking forward to Iron Man 2, as the first one was stellar.

Ghost World is the best.

Funny, there are about 250 movies out there that where adapted from comic books and you guys keep talking about the same few. What, no Blade fans? Tales From the Crypt? Men in Black? Heavy Metal? Road to Perdition? V for Vendetta? Swamp Thing? Sin City? Howard the Duck? Archie? 300? A History of Violence?

I know some people didn't like it, but I liked "The Punisher" with Travolta as the bad guy. I wasn't expecting the Punisher's whole family to get shot up at the reunion.

Whatever happened to Tintin ..my favourite comic book character as a child .. growing years .. Superman, Batman and Spiderman .. of all the 3 .. i think Dark Knight and Spiderman rules the roost .. best in the line of super hero classics and others .. Ironman is fast climbing up the charts no exception .. more than the character, i have an eye for the storyline in-sync with the FX .. Dark Knight didnt have much of FX but the storyline was quite convincing .. Spiderman 1 & 2 all FX but a queasy story .. however the choice of actors playing the charachters so far have done a considerable amount of justice to their respective roles .. Hugh Jackman as wolverine, the most suited either close to the superhero .. rest all are fine in the line .. thats all from Norm24x7 Hollywood High .. this is Norm saying goodbye .. have a nice weekend

Tintin is being turned into a trilogy of films by Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson. First one is due out in a couple years, I think.

Tintin Movie

I also second The Crow. That was an awesome movie. I liked Ghost Rider as well, just wished it had someone other than NC playing the title role.
