- looks great -- nm - Remlik Mar 27, 09:24
- [deleted] 19
  - I agree. nm -- nm - groiny Mar 27, 09:23
  - Which is a step up from the last Wolverine movie which was among the worst I've ever seen. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 27, 09:21 17
    - hey it's not Catwoman -- nm - Remlik Mar 27, 09:28 5
      - I almost prefer Catwoman to Wolverine. nm -- nm - groiny Mar 27, 09:30 4
        
        oh please. Catwoman the movie was such a piece of crap..Wolverine was such a letdown in that it was so 'blah'... - Remlik Mar 27, 09:34 3
        
        not just a letdown, but a bastardization of everything about him. nm -- nm - groiny Mar 27, 09:36 2
        
        no I wouldn't say that. Weapon X was there...the memory wiping out was there... - Remlik Mar 27, 09:42 1

        ... and the claws were terrible CGI, too -- nm - Beryllium Mar 27, 09:33 6
        
        Actually, let me be specific. - Beryllium Mar 27, 09:34 5
        
        CGI, I won't critique so much...given somehow these people were given $180mil and failed at basic action movie stuff. - Will Hunting Mar 27, 09:37 4
        
        I'm going to have to watch for those because I didn't notice the first time. -- nm - Mel Profit Mar 27, 09:39 1
        
        When we watched, I had to stop it and rewind and Kelly missed it, saw it and went wow. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 27, 09:39
        
        Wolverine + X-Men 3 almost killed my interest in that franchise. Thank goodness First Class was aptly named. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 27, 09:38 1
        
        all First Class need to do was watch 3 and Wolverine, and say "don't do that." and they were golden. nm -- nm - groiny Mar 27, 09:42
    - Yup. Definitely the worst Wolverine movie I've seen. -- nm - Mop on Mac Pro Mar 27, 09:24

    - There have been a couple. One (nearly non-spoil to help you know which one) - Spawn Mar 27, 09:29
So I've been given a new B:I key - I can't activate it from here though. - Reagen Mar 27, 09:15 5
- I could test it for you if you like, although I'd be afraid of messing it up. -- nm - Shaun Mar 27, 09:17 3
  - ....but then it wouldn't be my key anymore. -- nm - Reagen Mar 27, 09:19 2

- So...does anyone know how to hold a hockey stick? - Will Hunting Mar 27, 09:08 2
