Y The Last Man Vol. 5In this final Deluxe Edition hardcover collecting Y #49-60, Yorick and Agent 355 prepare for their ultimate quest to reunite the last man with his lost love, while the person, people or thing behind the disaster that wiped out half of humanity is revealed. Then, Yorick Brown's long journey through an Earth populated only by women comes to its dramatic, unexpected conclusion.
yup, I saw this one too.
Wanted was just an insanely fun, totally over-the-top action movie. This is the kind of movie that South Park parodies. The director (he has a hard name to remember) has such a weird, screwed up visual imagination that it made up for the half-baked plot. It also features Morgan Freeman saying “Shoot This MuthaFucka.”
I know I thought it was pretty good, not enough to buy on dvd but it was still good. Though I might buy it just to see the scenes with Morgan Freeman swearing he has such a weird/unique voice that it always sounds funny.
I liked it, it was just over the top fun, I feel I didn’t really get a good over the top action movie last year (or for a while now that I think about it), pure popcorn fun, was I the only one who thought they wanted Samuel L Jackson to play Sloane? The casual dropping of the f bomb did it for me. Fun movie, not brilliant, but fun (though honestly, there are huge things wrong with it… a band of weavers? Jame McAvoy’s dodgey American accent… couldn’t they just made a movie like this not base it off the comic and save some money?)
7/10
I thought Wanted was a blast. It is the perfect example of cinematic junk food. I especially liked the couples scenes where they played “rewind the bullet”.
That’s quite the enticing poster of AJ, isn’t it? Wait a minute, that’s her LEFT arm.
