Best Superhero Movie Ever Made? Shirley, you jest. It's better than the Christian Bale Batman movies? Those are some of the best movies ever made, period.

A fair point. But I must point-out that I am speaking subjectively, purely from a "what entertains me" perspective. I care not-much for the craft of film making, unless it adds to my own entertainment.

I could care less if I ever see the 1st Christian Bale Batman ever again. I really liked the second, but the whole "Twoface" sub plot dragged the movie out, like a sickly Siamese twin... sucking the life out of the vibrant twin.

Just took the kids to see the Avengers. I don't think 40Cent is doing the movie justice, it was great. Best $6 I've spent in a long time!!

BTW, I think it's a toss up on who is the hotter SHIELD Agent;

How about "the Best Marvel Superhero Movie Ever Made." I'm just trying to avoid the DC vs Marvel elephant in the room !

Cobie is more of a stick than ScarJo. But I do prefer brunettes.

Rented "Haywire" on the weekend, and I must say that I did not enjoy it as much as the 1st time that I saw it.

I can't believe the DC/Marvel conflict was brought up in these hollowed virtual halls! Typically I am a Marvel man myself but the recent Batman work has just been stunning. STUNNING! If they make a decent Punisher movie ever I can die happy.

I went to see Safe this afternoon. It started out well, with a turf war between the Chinese and Russian mobs in N.Y. The Chinese mob moss is paranoid about paper trails and electronic eavesdropping, so they kidnap a mainland and blackmail a mainland Chinese math genius to be their biological Excel spreadsheet.

Meanwhile, Jason Stayham plays an MMA fighter who attracts the ire of the Russian mob who then proceed to make his life hell. We know Statham and the math wiz will meet up and the buildup to it is very well done. Once they do and more backstory is revealed, things kinda fall apart. The story gets a little too disjointed and there isn't really any chemistry between Statham and the Chinese girl at all.

Decent enough for a rental, but it collapses under its own weight after a while.
