true, but at least Favreau is a good filmmaker - it's funny and cool the way he did it, having a little rinky-dink rocket blow up a tank...He was making fun of that type of "walking away from an explosion" scene while making it look cool.

A lot of other scenes in the Wolverine trailer bugs me as well:

"As I run towards you (Sabertooth), let me scrape my claws against the floor (or metal fence, I already forgot) to make myself look like a samurai."

Word is that Wolverine is out on the net, 1 whole month before release. Could be fake, but there's stories about it on several movie websites, along with dozens of threads about it on IMDB.

I liked the original X-Men, I still think it's one of the better comic book movies they've produced. The second film was frustrating for someone who hadn't read the comics, it felt like a string of five-minute references to the series that were intriguing, but an uninitiated like me would have needed twice as much time on each subject. The third film was largely forgettable and flawed, and I thought it didn't have the nerve to really stick to any of the twists it created. I thought this one was more like the first, although not quite as good. Like a lot of movies based on existing properties (or blockbusters in general), there's sort of a sense that each scene was devised on its own and then someone went through and strung it all together, for better or worse.

If you want to ask me questions, I'll be happy to answer them in spoiler tags, with the exception of where I watched it, because I won't say (please don't PM me about it either. If you're that desperate to see it, it's not that challenging).

But for those that have already seen it, what be the general concencous?
