Marvel is really pushing the limits!

In what I think turned out to be a Banner year(pun completely intended), Marvel has really set forth an ambitious agenda. Most of you know that they released not one but two movies based on very lucrative comic book franchises, and I have to say after finally watching both of said films I am very impressed with the direction that is being taken with Marvel's material. I have always been a fan of the X-men movies and am looking forward to the stand alone Wolverine movie, as he is my favorite character. The Spiderman movies were pretty good, though I have not seen 3. The Fantastic Four I have not yet viewed as I was never a big fan, but I have heard good things about them, Jessica Alba being just one of them.(Yeah Baby!) Now I am a huge fan of the Iron Man movie, course I have always like Robert Downey and Gwenyth Paltrow was suprisingly hot in that film(IMHO). Tonight I finally got around to watching the new Hulk movie and was pleasantly surprised in how much more I liked it than the other version. Edward Norton was excellent as usual and Liv Tyler was hot as usual. But that aside, I really enjoyed the fact that with both Iron Man and The Hulk, Marvel has really put forth the seeds to set up for The Avengers movie. Those who have not seen both of these movies, I won't go into details, but I think it is interesting that they are using their current films to promote those that aren't even in production yet. Novel Idea. All I can say is that I hope that Avengers turns even half as good as Iron Man and maybe just a little better than the Hulk. Now bring on Wolverine!!!!!!
