Twitter Movie Review:

X-Men: First Class

Greetings, X-men Fans!
For the record, let me first say. I started not to go see this movie as it appeared - by the trailers - to be just another X-Men movie.

Yeah, X-Men First Class was getting all kinds of Rave Reviews from the critics. But, I figured. I'd just wait for the DVD to come out.

However. Last night, on the Coast-to-Coast AM Radio Show (http://twitter.com/coasttocoastam). The conversation was such that it has inspired me to Go See The Movie!

Still, I never do anything without first checking the Twitter reviews.
Having said that, let's check first with Stan (The Man) Lee.

Let us applaud the courage of the X-Men crew for filming a Marvel movie without a cameo from my own iconic self!

TheRealStanLee

‘Tis pleased I am that so many of ye regret my lack of cameo in X-Men First Class, and thou canst not comprehend such a grievous omission

And without further a due.
Here's a "few" of the reviews by tweeters, leaving the theater.

mrSTAYPUFF88

Jetspeedman

Pleasantly surprised at how good X-men First Class is. Really a lot of fun to watch. Love the surprise mutant appearance.

#Fact RT @Shaun_Mula23 X-MEN: FIRST CLASS is by far the best in the whole series. One of the best superhero movies as well!! Check it out.

Benaconda

what I learned from X-Men: First Class - never trust a stripper.

And there you have just a few of the reviews. But of course, no review would be complete without the X-Men First Class trailer...

Twittering Star Trek Movie Review Tweets?

Twittering Star Trek Movie Review Tweets?

eYeah, why not? In fact, why get one only one person's Star Trek Movie Review, when you can get 100's. And in Real Time. Like Pychobj2001, who just twittered; "I'm at showplace gunna watch #startrek luvs it!!!!! I'm so excited, I just can't hide it....."

Or MikeGross144, who tweets; "Just got out of Star Trek. #Startrek Just know -- a great reset to a classic. Casting is amazing. Anyone else see it tonight?"

Got the idea?
Ok, so then, without further a due,
here are a few more Star Trek Movie Review Tweets.


Friday Night's Star Trek Movie Twitter Reviews:

• Lindsay_007God help me, I'm googling Star Trek stuff. The madness begins. If only Spock wasn't so damn intriguing...

• DoctorFeelgood: Just got back from #startrek. Awesome movie. In every way. Great story. Everyone who likes scifi should go see it on the big screen. 5/5
• kelle: I am going to go ahead and say that #StarTrek is SERIOUSLY. AN. EPIC. WIN.
• arieldotcom: #startrek was pretty good. This is coming from someone who was, by all means, against seeing this movie. I liked it anyway.
• jochan1977: back from seeing #startrek. Very fun, visually appealing, just the right amount of camp and classic lines. Karl Urban didn't hurt either.
• csimokat: Not to say I hated the #startrek movie entirely there are parts I liked and parts I found sentimental but a lot of it irritated me as well!
• audiojunky: So cited for star trek I am Going to wet myself... And I just peed
• MattBentleyy: Star trek with my daddy:)
• rhythmkat: StarTrek-door opened for 2 more decades of Star Trek movies..in a potentially awesome alternate universe! It's SO Star Trek! GO see it!
• FadeX: Just chewed off half my lip watchin startrek... fantastic.
• ShockWaveNews"William Shatner wasnt in the new Star Trek Movie, and i for one say he wasnt missed!"
• Star Trek
  

Ok! Well now.
Aside from a couple of bad reviews,
the basic sentiment seems to be;
"Star Trek is Awesome!"

And no, I didn't just grab the "Pro" tweets as oppose to grabbing the "Con" tweets. And another thing! The "Pro" Star Trek tweets, seem to Far outnumber the Pro Wolverine tweets from Last Week's Wolverine Opening. Nevertheless, join us again tomorrow night for...

• eaudeamber: Even better the second time! Star Trek - BEST movie of the year!

X-Men Origins: Wolverine Movie ...Tweets?

The Comic Book Listings Blog:

X-Men Origins: Wolverine Movie
...Tweets?

Yeah that's right. Wolverine Movie Tweets!

@Agent_M tweeted; "Wolvie was fun. Lots of slashing and yelling and craziness".

But then, he's not called Agent_M for nothing.
As he is, Ryan Penagos, Marvel.com writer/editor/blogger.

So I sent Comic Book listings Blog correspondent @ThinkHero to the movies to give us his Un-biased Review of the X-Men Origins: Wolverine movie, but he's not back yet so in the meantime, I will be posting "tweets" from other twitterers who have already seen the movie.

@jenngw tweets: "It was pretty awesome. That's my official review."

@rejects tweets: "Saw Wolverine, enjoyed some of it. It had serious ups and downs, though."

@InsaneGamer66 tweets: "Wolverine was good, 8/10 movie the only 2 thing i hated was the ending and how they..." Sorry, but i couldn't publish the rest of that tweet.

@ellejaystar785 tweets: "loved x-men origins wolverine! snickty snickty snaw!!!!!!!!"

@trousey tweets: "Preview for Transformers 2 looks AWESOME! Megan Fox doesn't hurt things either ;-)...ok enough previews, Bring on Wolverine!"

@OakMonster tweets: almost home from #wolverine. it was AWESOME. i heart deadpool.

@BajaLori tweets: "Just saw Wolverine! LOVED IT!!!!!!"

@danielmadden tweets: "I'm finally in my seat at the theater... I can't wait for Wolverine to grace the screen and kick some serious ass!"

@abbeyd tweets: "Had to leave Wolverine because I got sick. Goddamnit!"

Oh @abbeyd, I am so sorry. It may interest everyone to know that in the 20 hrs following @abbeyd's tweet, she has not tweeted since. I do hope she's ok. Get Well Soon!



At this point in time, most twitterers seem to be sitting in the theater, twittering tweets like; "Sitting here waiting for the movie to start." Pretty Cool! Just wish i was there instead of blogging about it from the Outside. Nevertheless Stay Tuned for More Wolverine tweets in a moment as I will be updating this post til midnight. And all through the Wolverine Weekend.

Update: I may be up after midnight as it seems the ones that are in the theater now are waiting for the midnight showing. Still, I will post whatever Review tweets that come in.


UPDATE: It's Saturday! I must have fallen asleep. Sorry folks, but I'm back up and will be posting More Wolverine Tweets in a moment.

• @erika1986: x-men origins wolverine was awesome!
• @amyjogirardier: Wolverine at least you can forget your origins. The rest of us can't.
• @funley: Wolverine: I liked it. Good action and the storyline doesn't stop. Which is mostly good. Little bone claws are little disturbing.
