SOOOO, today's episode of Games of Thrones is called Baelor, right? I better prepare myself for some intense pain, then. o____o
So I finally got to go watch X-Men: First Class last night, and then I proceeded to stay up until 5am reading Erik/Charles fic. So I think it's safe to assume that I loved it! It was smart, fun, angsty, complex, interesting and pretty looking, and after X3 and that horrible Wolverine movie and years of waiting for another decent X-Men film, it feels like I'm vindicated in that yes, the franchise is shiny again! YAYZ. ( spoilers! )
I loved the 60s setting, as well. It just added to the plot. The people involved in the Wolverine attrocity could learn from that, they made that one so vague it was just weird and unsettling. My dad didn't like it pretty much because they meddled with real-life affairs, and I had to do a lot of sighing and explaining that comics do that all the time, that that's what keeps them current, and that it goes way to the beginning with Captain America punched Hitler in the face that one time.
