Random thoughts:
Silver Surfer was so much better to me than the first F4 movie.
X Men III suffered the same fate Batman & Robin had, too many heroes and too many villains angling for screen time. I felt the plot was ok.
I liked Wolverine but get why other's didn't. IMO, its strong point was ___ playing Sabretooth-- he was so delicious as a villain. I liked some of the backstory fill in.
I enjoyed The Wolverine as it was a minimalist action thriller that I think set a good tone but, IMO, the Silver Samurai (?) just wasn't what I was thinking for the end.
Logan was legit, and I honestly got more wrapped up in the story via the black and white version than the color version.
I appreciate the comedy and ultra violence of Deadpool.
I think they are onto something in doing these X Men First Class casted movies and their "decade" themes. Unless they f* up Dark Phoenix I think they are still doing good work with these.
With all the bad press and just from the eye test telling me it was bad, I doubt I ever watch that reboot of Fantastic Four --even if it costs me no money to do it.
