It looks like a collage of underworld, x-men, and mortal kombat. I'm not excited. But I will certainly read the reviews and try to hear how it is, because I really can't tell.

Meh, might end up like Catwoman.

I pray it doesn't wind up like Catwoman. I'm intrigued if for no other reason than another opportunity to see Garner in leather. But that's another story.

The way I figure it, it cannot possibly be any worse than Daredevil. Heck, Affleck should have little to no role in it (there is a rumor he might have a cameo as he was on the set at some point during filming; but that could just be because he's dating Garner now).

I've seen this preview on AICN, and as I said there, it seems to be a cross between catwoman (30%), daredevil(60%) and kill bill vol2 (10%). Why can't they re-film "mourning becomes elektra" instead? That's a good one.

I have something I'm oh so tempted to write, but after all the political discussions we had on this board running up to November 2, perhaps it best that I don't say it.

it looks like someone didnt think there came enough juice out of the Daredevil-lemon (not that there did), and they are sure there is more hiding somewhere inside it...

I'm holding out higher hopes for this one than Catwoman or Daredevil; Rob Bowman, who directed the X-Files movie, is directing. As long as he didn't get saddled with a lame script, it should be pretty good; besides, I'd watch Jennifer Garner in just about anything.

Princess Leia: I happen to like nice men.
Han Solo: I'm a nice man.

I don't believe you caught the true meaning of my statement...say it to yourself a few times.
If you still haven't gotten it, I'll have to explain.

I didn't want to be quite so obvious. Not that I wasn't thinking it.

And, Motti, my wife knows of my Garner obsession. Nice try. Care to play again?

You expect my wife to be able to comprehend a drunken, salivating fool attempting to speak English through a thick Danish accent? HA!
