This trailer looks like it could be really awesome or super lame.
I was always pretty lukewarm about the X-Men movie series, considering how crappy the first and last movies were, but admittedly they have made me care a little bit more about Wolverine’s story as disinteresting it was to me as a eight-year-old growing up on the cartoons.
But two more things to make this movie posibbly worth watching in the theaters:
1. GAMBIT. Maybe it’s the aero-dynamic cards or his really awesome Southern accent, either way, Remy LeBeau is FINALLY making his way into the X-Men movies. While his superpowers look super cool, I can’t stop looking at his greasy HAIR. What the freak? We’ll see if had just skipped showering for that day or if he just has really oily follicles.
2. Daniel Henney! Two pluses: He’s (half)Asian, and he’s SUPER good looking. That addresses, not just the lack of Asian Americans in Hollywood, but the lack of attractive Asian American males in big name movies. No more nerds and computer geek to represent us! To be honest, I feel a little lukewarm about it since it seems like he was chosen purely because of his looks (I mean, from what I saw in the Korean drama in My Lovely Kim Sam Soon, it seems like the most he can do is smile dashingly). BUT we’ll see how it goes *crosses fingers*.
Alright hardboiled kids, May 1st, finals week, we’re going to check this out! Who’s with me? :D
As for Henney, You also forgot to add the kDrama, Spring Waltz.
lol, I didn’t watch that. Was his acting any better in that drama?
Daniel’s acting has DRASTICALLY improved since My Kim Sam Soon. His last movie, “My Father” was a real tear jerker. I have no doubt that he’ll do well in “X-Men Origins: Wolverine”. Yay Daniel!!!
Nice writing. You are on my RSS reader now so I can read more from you down the road.
Definitely a good feature
