Below average IMHO. After all these super hero movies they will need to pull something completely awesome off to make me watch it. It's getting really stupidAnd every new movie seems to go downhill.

The only good thing about the trailer was that McMahon was the bad guy. :D

Blame spiderman; that's why we're seeing all the comic book films.

Yeah, that was a nice surprise. I didn't know he'd be playing Dr. Doom.

But I think the movie will be good. They don't seem to be detracting too much, and most of the complaints I heard are nitpicks - like Thing's eyebrows and stuff like that. It'll be hard for it to match any of the X-Men or Spiderman movies, but I'm not with the "it'll suck" crowd.

to be honest, my impression was that it looked quite dull.  Y'know, if this movie was a colour, it'd be grey.

Plus the music for the 'action' bit of the trailer was ****ing awful.

Bah, I hate all of these superhero thingies. They all seem pretty much identical to me, and this one looks especially bland. But apart from the repeating screaming noise, the 'action' music was the only part I particularly liked.

Spidey 2 and the X-Men movies rocked, the Batmans were silly-fun, and the Supermans ranged from freakin awesome to mediocre. Aside from that... meh.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

You gotta be kidding, right? RIGHT?!

Besides virtually the worst CG graphics for a big-budget movie, the story wasn't exactly good either. It was a 'fun' movie that i would borrow from my friend but certainly not cinema grade movies.

I say Tiara is just extremely picky.

No, I would say that no one strives for anything other than big explosions and one liners anymore. The thinking seem to be "if you want story and character development, go see an art film. Otherwise, get ready for mindless CG action and a steady stream of cliches."

X-Men 2 was tolerable...barely. Any of the other ones (with the exclusion of Blade 1) are utter crap. Especially Daredevil, Punisher, the Hulk and Elektra (which looks especially awful, even in such company)

I enjoyed X-Men 2 and Spidey 2. Rest of you shush, it's just fun.

X-Men 2 was actually pretty good.. it did further the story - it told you about Wolverines past (granted, I've never been a fan of the X-Men cartoons or comics, but I did know a bit about the charachters). The CG work was well done but not necessarily OTT.

As for this - well props to them for featuring A Perfect Circle on the trailer score. Not sure how good it'll be though - as there was virtually no dialogue and the dialogue that did feature was a cheesy one liner. The rest of it was special effects. So perhaps we're in for another one to cater for the kids.

Okay, just from the picture in the background...

Ben looks scarred, not like he's made of living stone.
Reed looks like he's wearing a helmet that just happens to look like his hair.
Sue looks like she stuck her finger in a light socket.
Johnny is a blonde dammit!

More when it get's done DLing on this damn 56k.
So as through a glass, and darkly
The age long strife I see
Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

The point being on word "enjoyed". Who needs watertight plot etc when you can just sit down and enjoy.
