‘Wolverine’ Begins

David and I finally got to spend some time with Darion last night after going a couple of weeks without any of us getting to hang out. Because of our travel schedule and Darion’s travel schedule, we just couldn’t get it together … but last night we finally met up for dinner a movie. We also finally got to check out Darion’s new apartment which is prett swank. It’s great having him live so much closer. Because he lives Beverly Hills adjacent, we decided to grab dinner at Chin Chin before making our way to the ArcLight (best theater ever) to see X-Men Origins: Wolverine:

The good news is that Wolverine is much better than X-Men 3: The Last Stand but, unfortch, it is not as good as X-Men and X2: X-Men United. The problem with origin story movies is that you have a whole lotta information that you need to pack into a ridiculously short amount of time … that way you can get thru the history and still have time to tell the story at hand.
