They can't do x-men in The Avengers, either, because they're owned by Fox, and Fox plans to release all of the terrible fucking Hugh Jackman Wolverine films they possibly can.

That said, and this might sound absolutely fucking crazy, but I don't know how well the x-men would work in the established Marvel movie universe. I think that would actually get a little out of hand. I mean, that's a lot of crazy shit happening on the same planet.

X-Men first class was the first in a trilogy, and I'm quite fine with 2 more of those.

ha, you're a fair bit younger than me, TMNT was around when I was a teenager. For me it was Scooby Doo (probably the one cartoon that really spans the generations more than any other) and Burt Ward as Batman with the POW, KAPOW BOOM's

Yeah they showed a lot of Scooby Doo on TV in Saudi Arabia.

What a shitty cartoon.

I hated Scooby as well. Every episode was the goddamn same.

The Hunger Games. If you've read the book, 9/10. If you haven't, 6/10...

I read the books first and found the film to be a good complement to them but can't imagine it would be so good without.

Of course there will always be differences between page and screen and to a certain extent these can be forgiven but I really feel that the back story was missing to such an extent that it must be difficult for the viewer that hasn't read at least half of the book to fully appreciate what is going on.

So, read the book first!
