Most disappointing movie franchise reboot? Pick Two
Malenko:
Ryan Reynolds doesnt really try to be dane cook to me, I mean he was cracking me up in 2 guys, a girl , and a pizza place. Van Wider is one of my fave movies too. I thought he made a great Wade Wilson, the way the movie handle the deadpool character is what was terrible about it, like taking Wraiths teleport ability instead of a teleport device; and Cyclop's Optic Blast. Dont get me started on the swords in his arms. The worst part about the wolverine movie is Gambit. So terrible. And if you havent played the 360/PS3 game, you should. its freekin awesome; you can prolly get it for like 10 bux nowadays

Never seen Van Wilder, though I hear it is quite funny. I will give it a go some day.
I have played the Wolverine game on 360 and it is very good. Probably the best Movie->Game ever.
I will try and watch both movies this weekend and give them a try. I guess my issue is I am not that big of a comedy guy. I tend to enjoy action, sci-fi, and horror the most (not modern horror remakes though. I like the older horror). And I get annoyed when they try to blend comedy into the comic movies unless it is that type of comic.

Van Wilder is a very, very formula fitting College comedy, but the antics in the movie are pretty funny. I wouldn't call it a "must see", but if you have the chance, its worth the rental.
I'm more of a late 70's through 80's comedy guy though. The Jerk is probably my favorite comedy of all time.

Careful, nobody tells Sam Raimi to eat a fat one and lives to tell about it.

I had to kill some Deadites this morning, so, if thats all he is going to throw at me, then I can handle it. The rain gave me more trouble. ;)
Im quite a fan of Ryan Reynolds. I liked him in Van Wilder, and Waiting, pretty much the same character, but funny nonetheless. Im actually excited to see Green Lantern, probably because I dont know anything about him.
Wolverine was god awful, sabretooth was retarded, and the whole story was just terrible. It was pretty hard to watch. Darren Aronofsky is supposed to do the sequel called "The Wolverine". He got taken off of the Robocop remake. I LOVE Wolverine, so, it was hard to see the Origins movie. It was trash. :angry:

I am also more of a 70s and 80s guy too. Especially when it comes to horror, the new horror sucks big time. Yes The Jerk is a classic comedy.
I do like the old Adam West Batman, but it was meant to be funny and at the time that was how the comic was. Believe it or not, the Adam West Batman was pretty faithful to the Batman comics of the 50s and 60s. It wasn't until the 70s that they changed Batman back into the style Tim Burton took for the first movie. I have all of the Batman DC Archives in Hardcover and it is funny to read the early work from the 30s, He started out like the Tim Burton version back then and even killed the criminals. Sometimes pretty brutally and had no care in the world about it. Then they introduced Robin and everything turned into Adam West Batman until the late 70s.
I prefer the dark and brooding Batman over the Adam West campy Batman, but I do have a love for both versions.
