    X-Men Origins: Wolverine

    served a guy in a wolverine shirt at work today, realized i had never seen the original (there's like 10 of these solo movies so I'm confused) 

    can't say this was a good use of my time.

    don’t hate me but I did not enjoy this 

    Here are my notes, heavily influenced by our car ride discussion post watch: 
    - Only reason I liked it was that last scene, very fun and creative and tied a lot of knots in both the plot and characters but still was very disappointed in the overall development and unclear character arcs  
    - The screams were horrible 
    - Camera movement and language was either trying too hard or on crack …

    music was incredible and I enjoyed this more than any other biopic I’ve seen in a bit. However…there were multiple times where the audio was clearly not synced or the editor thought we wouldn’t notice that someone’s mouth wasn’t moving when they were talking. Also I literally learned nothing about Bob Dylan other than how he got famous. Was he a liar? Why did he change his name? Was the circus thing legit? Why does he write songs of such beauty and cannot even seem to speak to a person? Anywhoooo I did like it even though it might seem like i didn’t!
