Morning, Hive!

I'm looking forward to both the Wolverine and Magneto films - but it's the Avengers stuff that's got me really excited. If Marvel can pull of a Superhero Team Movie (and I can't think of anyone else who has so far) then I'll be highly impressed.

Even better: Avengers movie where they fight a BBEG along side the X-Men and the Fantastic 4.

Now you're talking more about an ensemble disaster movie or war film than a superhero film.

Although - how about Avengers 11? A team of superheroes (or villains, perhaps...) gang to gether to pull off one amazing heist/robbery/moon-shot/whatever.

I hope my group is gonna game this weekend. Haven't the last two weekends. One person couldn't make it both weeks [actually same person, sick one week, vacation the next] and another is having problems with car that SHOULD be fixed by this weekend [he lives like 45 minutes away so it's annoying for anyone to pick him up and he smokes so two of our group cannot stand the smell enough to be willing to game at his house].

Unfortunately, a different person has army duty this weekend, so it is all dependant on whether the person's car gets fixed to see whether we'll be gaming or not.

Considering how many "Avengers" there are that could easily be done. Question is which Avenger will play which Ocean's part?

They better show Captain America in WWII for the first 30 - 45 minutes of Captain America: First Avenger.

Course, maybe 45 minutes might be a little overkill if they can establish his back story in like 5 - 20 minutes.

And a new one always gives me a reason to post linky:
