    i would really like a new Storm. a Banshee. a Jubilee. a Multiple Man. i want an all X-Man set (though we're kinda getting it with wave 28) to finish my X-Men team! then some more Avengers. YOUNG avengers, that is!

    i agree...more x-men and even new warriors either way i want a jubilee minimate! and young avengers would be awesome!

    still considering the 4-packs, and getting a handful of Wolverine/Magneto 2-packs to make some generic-uniform x-guys. and definitely one of wonder man/union jack.

    yup me too, defintely getting some of those wolverine x-uniforms, imo i think they look really cool, and of course a cap brit and wonder man is a must have, I wonder if they will come out before the 4 packs or after?

    Who watches the Watchmen?

    Who watches the Watchmen?

    I did.

    Well, actually I just came home from the movie theatre and it was a very nice film!It wasn't as brilliant as it could be, but it was well done.

    Here are the black bars:

    The Minutemen-The-Times-Are-A-Changin' Intro was an awesome idea in my eyes and I really liked how they adapted many of the details. Even the changed ending was, if not totally satisfying, a decision I can live with. It's more plausible then I thought it would be. I was totally surprised to see Jon completely naked throughout the whole movie and I didn't expect to see the sex scene in Archie that explicit, and really liked it. (Not in a voyeuristic way - of course both actors are sexy - but it really fits in there. It's not just one of those cheap exploitation sex-scenes.) I really loved Rorschach and Comedian was superb. Dan was a little too confident, especially in the beginning (Telling Rorschach those were great times, whatever happened to them? - You quit. That just wasn't conclusive in my eyes.) The chapter we see things the way Jon does was brilliant! Besides the fact that all plot lines that doesn't deal with the superheroes are left out (which I sort of understand and accept), I was very disappointed by Veidt. The actor was good, but my reception of him in the comics is more of a guy that has a perfectly good standing in public, is a charming and most favored person, intelligent but polite and somehow a "popstar" in a way Obama is (Read that brilliant interview with him to see what I mean). The movie Veidt is more of an arrogant and sinister businessman. That first press interview really introduced him as a bigheaded smart ass. Maybe they were looking for a villain somehow... And Laurie and Dan killing (!) people is completely ridiculous, they'd never do things like that, especially when Rorschach tells Dan afterwards that he's way too soft dealing with criminals. I mean, the difference between "superheroes" like Dan and "superheroes" like Rorschach are the fact, that the latter actually do hurt and kill people while the former wouldn't do that! That was really disturbing. Just like the action sequences. I mean, come on, Laurie and Dan unhesitatingly fighting like 20 knotheads? And Rorschach doesn't stumble upon a garbage can when he flees from Moloch's flat, but fighting 10 policemen? I mean, Wolverine does that, OK. But I always thought that these "superheroes" are that authentic because they are "just" atheltic and not superpowered. Well, maybe it's just me.

    :geek:

    But on the whole, just like I said, a very nice movie with many adorable scenes and some of lesser brilliance.

    I knew they were going to extended dan and laurie's sex scene, I mean c'mon sex sells!, as for he doc being naked, that kinda surprised me, i mean I figured he be censored, since the dave gibbons poster had him... as for the fight scene, i expect them to be cheesy and a exaggerated, also you stated that the doc's past is executed brilliantly so thats makes me glad, since the doc is my fav character, anyway now I really can't wait for the movie, so thanks for your summary!

    2 more days!!! :D :D

    I'm thinking we need to have a future wave of two-packs for the characters who never made it into the box sets but should have (or CWNMIITBSBSH for short):

    Iceman and Darkstar (Champions)

    Banshee and Sunfire (Giant-Size X-Men)

    Nighthawk and Hellcat (Defenders)

    Toro and regular jim hammond(invaders)

    Thor and i guess another captain america(avengers)

    Ken & Blanka 2 pack

    not so much as a ripoff of ryu/ken and especially dan, since akuma was in the game before dan, anyway he was the only person to master the dark hadoken and he also has the same moves as ryu,cept alittle diffirent, and thats all i can remember since i just watched street fighter alpha the movie a couple of days ago so yeah...

    and i think is one of strongest in the game, though i never play as him..
