I think she's pretty good for the part that was actually written. The fact that it bears only passing resemblance to the comic book Mystique isn't really her fault.

It's hard to imagine she would have been worse than Halle Berry (I've seen Halle be good in things but Storm was, to be gentle, not her finest hour).

It's always Mystique.

1. We're in a *dramatically* different timeline.

Point of order: Beast was not blue to begin with and has spent several periods of the comics not blue.

Only if you're never planning to develop the character and are just including her as a "hey look who it is!", which would be a shame because Dazzler is a pretty cool character.

I approve this message.

1. I enjoy how your avatar kind of matches the subject here because like half of the tale of Genji is long descriptions of how beautiful Genji is.

THE COOK!

I prefer to think it is Romy Hoffman, because I like my aussie rappers obscure.

Look, even if you're right, that's 1 plus 1 plus 2 plus 1, not 1 plus 2 plus 1 plus 1.

That probably goes for many artists. I love Jackson Pollock and Picasso, but I expect they were often not fun to be around.

Well, everyone who knew he existed. I didn't know this guy from adam (I would have pegged him as 'bad Jon Miller cosplayer'), but now: I think he's an asshole.

Counterpoint: Cigarette companies exist.

And Oliver mentioned that himself in the piece (including the fact that, kind of amazingly, this is the first cease and desist they have ever received.

Lizardo is more of an angry psycho though. I always see the Joker as a little more humorous. Not to say Lithgow couldn't do it, but I think the characters are fairly different.

That's kind of where I am, but then if I was a family member or friend of one of the victims at Sandy Hook I can certainly understand not wanting this dragged onto national television again, even if it *is* a takedown. I just can't even imagine what that must be like.

I'd say it was a movie with many great *moments* but not a great *movie*. Just a little too much slack that could have been trimmed. Her charging across no man's land and liberating Veld was great. The reveal of the bad guy and his true motivations I also thought was great.

Well there was perhaps a whiff of "oh things are complicated you wouldn't understand you just need to trust me and these other men", but as gwen said, it was not over the top.

Hmm, I thought the parts on the island dragged on way too long, as they set up a sword that was, I guess, meaningless? Like what did it do? It wasn't the god killer, so, umm, what was it? Why have it? Who was it there to fool?
