Also, the Wolverine movie ruined everything and everyone involved. Let us speak of it no more, that it might someday be struck from the records of history.
This first part feels like a jab to Batman or Spider-Man. And no, as a huge fan of both I'm not going to flip out on you and start nerd raging. I actually half agree about that. With the wrong writer, Batman can easily turn into a humorless drama queen, but it's not always the case. Writers like Jeph Loeb, Grant Morrison, and most recently Scott Snyder have all done the Dark Knight justice. More ancient ones like Denny O'Neil, Alan Moore, and Frank Miller have done their part as well, but you do have a point. Get the wrong writer on some more human dark characters and they just become a bunch of cry babies.
About the Wolverine movie. Agreed.
Agreed agreed and agreed. Twelve foot tall Hugh Jackman and his band of thugs ruined everything sacred about 5'3 Wolverine.
