coooomics have invaded my brain

Wow, my day has seriously been comic book oriented.

First I saw the Wolverine movie which I did enjoy! I laughed when he screamed HRRRRROOUUGHHHH instead of going NOOOOOOO both times, and my friends had NO IDEA WHY I WAS LOLING. Overall I thought some of the special effects were a bit lame and that it needed more Gambit with french accent (I wasn't impressed to begin with but he grew on me), more speaking Pietro :|, more cameos, more dramatic explosions, more HRRRRROOOUUUUGHHHHHH and less blob and less DIAMONDS ARE EMMA'S BEST FRIEND. I bet I'll start complaining about it more when I start reading the Deadpool that [livejournal.com profile] otilu gave me, since I'm pretty sure he is meant to have a mouth 8| (Also I didn't know that Sabretooth was Logan's brother but I'm assuming this is either true or something they did for the movie?) But I did enjoy it :3

Then I went to forbidden planet and bought some Runaways Trades and the Young Avengers Presents trade (SHUTUP SQUEAK I NEEDED IT AND I'M TOTALLY GOING TO NEVER READ TEDDY'S ONE ;A;) and got into a conversation about Tommy with one of the dudes looking at the other trades c: THEN we went on an epic book store trek and I got two +Anima books that I was missing (still need 10 but I haven't read 9 so!) and I considered buying the Umbrella Academy but decided against it and THEN THEN we got cheap DVDs (FERN GULLY 8D and The Science of Sleep) and went to wagamama's for lunch/dinner where I drew little wolverines going HRRRRRROOOUGHHH.

I had a good day 8)

I was gonna pick up my issue of Runaways from the post office, Squeak, but it was closed when I got back for 'Unforeseen Reasons' 8(

I'm gonna take a nap now, since I've got to sort out what I'm doing for that presentation tomorrow with my friends later and I'm exhausted. @_@

I don't think Sabretooth was Wolverine's brother in the comics, but I'm a noob since I've never read it anyway |D

Do you have some of the X-Men comics on the computer? D: I've been looking for them like mad but I can only find them on marvel's website and I can't pay for it. >:

I'm pretty sure he's not, but I was offering that question to my comic reading dudes who I know will know. Its not on the official wiki document, so presumably it was just something they did for the film since I was pretty sure they were just rivals rather than actual brothers.

No 8( I buy most of my comics and then get sent some on the computer. The only X-Men I have is the New X-men and only have random issues of that.

Yeahh I read up on marvel's website and it said they were rivals and met in Canada, but doesn't mention the siblingness |D

Boo D: I would buy some, but my country doesn't sell them I don't think. G-- OH WAIT HOLY SHIT I just remembered a store that might have some. Oh yeahhh. :D Thanks anyway! <3

Yeah! They probably made them brothers for the movie because people who weren't familiar with their relationship would IDK CONNECT WITH THE CHARACTERS more. Its a little gay, but whatevs.

I'm pretty sure a lot of places import them! You just have to look! Theres always Ebay too, for trade paperbacks and specific issues C:

Wtf, we would've connected just fine otherwise. |: Gay. BUT WHATEVS the movie was sexy anyway.

My mom hates e-bay with a passionate burning flame but yeahh the store I thought about even has its own x-men section :D

yaaaay x-men section

ahhhh omg I totally just saw Wolverine too, last night 8D. I thought it was really good but I kind of agree about the special effects- to me it almost seemed like they overdid them to a point that it made things look less realistic at times, but I don't really know anything about that kind of stuff so IDK I guess lol. They seemed a bit lame at times for sure.

Was Pietro really in it though? I didn't even notice ^^;. And Deadpool was sort of a dissapointment but asdkjaskldja RYAN REYNOLDS <3.

IDK some of the claws effects looked really fake and I wasn't really impressed with them. A lot of the time they were okay, it was just sometimes that they were really noticeably lame :I

YES. He was the white haired mutant that was strung up on elastic that was vibrating really fast, because OBVIOUSLY thats the only way to stop a speedster |:

[identity profile] meevees.livejournal.com 2009-05-06 08:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeahhhh same here basically. Some of the effects were really cool but there were certain scenes that just didn't look right I guess.

OH DUH. It's like obvious that was him now that you say it lmao I'm a little embarrassed I didn't notice >>;.

Yup! Though like.. in the cinema I when the ads were on I actually NOTICED that the screen wasn't 16:9 ratio because I'm a fucking lameass animation student and now I notice these things orz

it seriously needed MOAR FRENCH GAMBIT THOUGH WHAT THE HELL. Also less BLINGEE EMMA FROST.

\o/ I want him and Wanda to be in their own movies pls pls let them be in the 2011 avengers movie ;A;

THANKS FOR THE SPOILER.
Nah, joking.

In the comics.... Sabretooth isn't his brother, as far as I know, from the ones I have, Sabretooth is what Wolverine will possibly become. They've been fighting for thousands of years, as reincarnations I think.
I dunno, the comics I have are a BIT strange :P
I'll lend you the ones I have? :D

Wolverine does have a brother, but it's not Sabretooth.

I'll be up for looking at them :D
