Saw it yesterday and thought it was pretty good. Its no Batman Begins, but I still enjoyed it. Pretty much agree with what Chewy and Jim had to say about it regarding pros/cons. Johnny Storm was the only character that was spot on and made for some nice eye candy to boot. Cannot strees enough how miscast both Sue and Reed were. Yes, Alba is pretty, but she doesn't have the presence necessary to be Sue. And who was the guy who played Reed? Calling him mediocre is a compliment. They really were not good.

Special effects were good - especially with the human torch - and the Ben Johnny relationship was great. And Jim, I wholeheartedly agree with you about Stan Lee's cameos. Several people groaned when he started yapping away, myself included. Ugh.

I thought it was better than the reviews gave it credit for. B/B-


Dear, sweet Harley Kwink...I'm madly in love with you. Marry me! We can go to Canadia. Or Boston or something. It'll be grand...You know the cookies are a given. They are ALWAYS a given. You could dump me tomorrow and you'd still get the cookies. Boston..shit, wherever dyke weddings were legalized. And where better to rub their little piggie noses in how bad they suck than right on their doorstep? What are they gonna do? Be jealous of you? Stare furiously at your tah-tahs? Not willingly give you cookies, but instead begrudgingly give you their cookies? Woman, time to wake up to the powers you wield - Uschi
