It comes tonight. ARE YA READY KIDS?

I'm heading out in a couple of hours myself. What are your plans?
Life is not about the second chances. It's about a little mouse and his voyage to an exciting new land. That, my friend, is what life is.

Sir, do you have any Warrants?
I got their first CD, but you can't have it, motherfucker!

I'm gonna see it tomorrow.

I am hyped.

I'm planning to see it tomorrow after I arrive home from college. I can't wait. Hopefully it'll have been worth 4 years worth of build-up. If the reviews which it has received so far are any indication, it probably will.

Probably next week or so. I haven't really decided yet, but I'll be out of town again this weekend, so it won't be for a little while at least. We'll see.

Spark Of Spirit

Be sure to let me know if Whedon blows it, Mr. Dad.

After CGI Hulk, it's my #1 worry.  :-[

The reviews say no, Gonzo wannabe.

Not only that, but apparently Hulk steals the show, too.

I hope he jnows when to dial it down. I really didn't like CGI Hulk in either of the other two movies.

Honestly have no interest in this at all. Will probably watch it if some of my friends want to go, though.

Because I only like Iron Man and Nick Fury and the only reason I even do is because of their actors.

Avaitor

Huh, I would have pegged you to be a fan of Loki's character myself. I always thought that Deadpool took some inspiration from him.

Did you see Captain America or Thor? They really are very good movies. I wouldn't be nearly as hyped if I didn't see them. (RDJ's Iron Man is the only version of the character I like)

I honestly have no idea who you're talking about. Like I've said before, I'm a complete Marvel noob. Aside from DP and Spider-Man, I don't know anything about their characters outside of the movies.

Nah. The Thor trailers made it look like the kind of movie I'd completely detest, and by the time I realized the Captain America movie was a thing, it had left theaters. :frown:

Though admittedly, there are a lot strikes against the movie. Like how Jack Kirby's family won't make any money out of it, how it's basically a 2-hour commercial to sell toys and fuel sequels, how Edward Norton didn't come back, and plenty more.
