Movie experience

Hello all you screen savers

Last night I went to see the movie X-Men Origins: Wolverine. I know, I know. I am a week late. It was okay. For an action movie, it had action. The first ten minutes covered every major war for the past couple hundred years. Then the a bunch of mercenaries, who happened to be mutants, try to kill one another and take over the world. Oh, there was also the romance and the struggle between man and self.

Most of the critics I read said this movie was lacking. Some true comic fans found this movie lacking. Some things about the movie did seem off to me. A friend who I saw the movie with remarked how some scenes looked a little fake. There were a couple of scenes that I could tell were computer backgrounds.

It was a good two hour time waste. It had some decent action, if even it could not happen. But, hey, these people are mutants. Of course it did the proper movie thing and left it wide open for another movie.

Speaking of movies...Star Trek has become the new thing. I did not see it yet. It will probably be another week or so. Everything I read yesterday made some reference to Star Trek. At least it took the place of the swine flu. I would be interested to see how it did. Although I have heard someone remark that it is the second week that matters. I think that makes sense because a lot of movies were ranked number one the first week and then tanked after.

At one time I was a Star Trek fan, meaning I watched the episodes. The commercials I have seen make it look a little interesting. It looks like it will definitely have a lot of action. I would not mind seeing the movie, but I am not sure if I want to pay eight bucks in the theatre. I would go see it if I went with a group of friends.

Have a star powered day...
