Just saw this movie tonight. Corny, predictable and sometimes out there but the most FUN I've had in a movie in a LOOOOOOONG time. The audience was cheering and this time, it was ok  If you have kids, take them to see it, you'll have a blast

Then you're not reading the right comics!

Here's my post from three weeks ago about it (opening night). Quote: I saw it tonight with the little man. I loved it. Maybe I was just in the mood for it, but it was the best boxing movie I've seen since Rocky. A good father-son movie -- sort of a movie with a kid's heart, with cool eye candy to boot. viewtopic.php?f=6&t=75999&p=2037042#p2037042

Agree with every word you wrote bro. And, as I've never watched Lost, this was my first exposure to Evangeline Lily and man she was good. Now I see why people thought she'd make a great Lois Lane.

Kinda wish they'd given her a little more to do, such as a motivation when Hugh Jackman's character wasn't around. But I liked her and thought her acting was 1000% times better than January Jones in X-Men First Class.
Feel good comics with heart, huh? Before I start listing, do they have to be recent?

I don't know of any comics with that kind of heart. Writers today just don't seem to do that.
Classic Sgt. Rock is what it reminds me of. I pulled some of those out and read them with my son since the movie.

I like how this deftly and surreptitiously turned into a "Modern Comics are shit" thread.

I don't have kids, so I have no excuse to see this movie. In fact, I haven't actually been to the cinema since 2006, but I'll see this on DVD when it comes out.

Mental mind-beam across the globe: you will like it. (And by the way, it's not really a "kids movie." They're sort of emphasizing that in the marketing because they realize what they've got, but it actually holds up well just as a boxing movie.)

Ah, well - it has robots in it, and it looks like fun. I'm pretty sure you're right, and I will like it a lot.

It's not just a kids movie, it's really a lot of fun.

So it's more than a "Rock 'em Sock 'em Robots" movie?

How could it be more than that? That's like the top thing there is.

I'm going to purchase the blu-ray.
This year it was Thor, Stand by Me (25th Anniversary), True Grit, Captain America, and Enter the Dragon. Before the year is over, I will purchase Rise of the Planet of the Apes.
So Real Steel will make into small company.

I still haven't seen the apes movie, or Thor. I'll have to watch those.
