So are we talking another Dark X-Man ?

i don't know, the kids-in-mind.com review hasn't come out yet. i don't think the movie is even rated yet. i'll post the kids-in-mind rating here when it comes out.

From the people who saw the pre-film (which was leaked a few days ago), it's about the same as the second X-Men movie - dark, but not so brutal or nihilistic. Remember, Marvel wants their movies to appeal to a wider audience while being faithful to their core fans; one of the reasons they started their own movie company was so that they could make films that were true to the comics and free from the demands of what Hollywood wants - including the need to drive every new movie deeper and deeper into the abyss of pseudo-psychoanalytical criminal analysis. I can only imagine what the next Batman will be like. I just heard that the villains are the Penguin - and Johnny Depp as the Riddler!

Anyway, Marvel movies are always much more upbeat than other movies. I mean look at Spider-man 3; it was practically another version High School Musical with monsters and villains.

hopefully edward is right about marvel comic movies. last year i posted a wall street journal article about warner brothers/dc comic movies, which indicated that they are trying to make "darker" movies. here's the article: LINK

From the trailer that I saw of the new Wolverine movie, it looked pretty dark and violent. Seriously, I know that maybe I've been watching too much Charlie & Lola, and Blue's Clues lately, but I really don't think that I could watch that without clearplay. I'm a sensitive pansy, I know.

But Angela, Wolverine is so CUTE!!!

i'm not going to see it... it's been getting bad reviews, anyway.
