That’s where tastes vary. Being a long time comic book fan I love the current wave of comic book movies, and not just for existing but for finally moving away from the camp that had dominated earlier attempts. They’re actually just putting it out there and doing it well, really hitting the parts of the stories that are why I’m a fan of comics.

The difference between THG moms and Twilight moms is THG moms are bringing their daughters to really good movies with a really good story and a lot of strong positive roll models for boys and girls (cross gender too, Catniss is a good roll model for any kid); and Twilight moms are bringing their kids to terrible movies with a terrible story filled with lame characters that are mostly crash test dummy victims of life. And WTH is up with a 120 year old vampire hitting on high school chicks, that’s just wrong.

Yup tastes are definitely personal...I like schlock and cheese and admit it proudly. The last comic book movie I enjoyed in the theater was “300” so that sums up my tastes. Loved the soundtrack, too. (But I’m a woman so it’s ok!)
