The Big Three

In the next few weeks Marvel and DC Comics drop 3 HUGE summer movies - THOR, Green Lantern,
and Captain America. Being a HUGE fan, I've kept up with the production of each movies, seen the
trailers, read the comics of each title for many years and have made my own conclusions:

THOR looks to be a fun movie that will stay close to the latest incarnation of the comic book.
The special fx look great and the cast looks awesome. I LOVE Natalie Portman, but I heard her character
brings very little to the movie. I really want this one to do well considering most do not know
the THOR storyline.

Most people know who Captain America is and the gist of his background. The movie is taking the right
approach - telling his origin story, WWII adventures, how he comes to modern day. The comic in
the mid-2000's was AWESOME and exciting again. Ed Brubaker wrote the character the way it should be.
When they released the first batch of pictures from the movie, I thought it looked cheesy but fun.
After they released their SuperBowl commercial, I was all in!

Green Lantern to me looks like the turd of the bunch. Both trailers, along with the acting seem forced.
I'm not sure if Ryan Reynolds isn' right, or the amount of CGI is bad. I have ALWAYS liked GL as a character
and it bums me out that making a movie about him might make him SUCK! One thing is for certain,
I'm not putting all my eggs in THAT basket.

THOR - 3 / 4 Stars

Captain America - 4 / 4 Stars

Green Lantern - 1.5 / 4 Stars
