The agreement also provides Disney with the opportunity to reunite the X-MEN with the Marvel family under one roof and create richer, more complex worlds of inter-related characters and stories that audiences have shown they love. It only makes sense for Marvel to be supervised by one entity. There shouldn't be two Marvels.
I ended up watching the Hunger Games prequel last night and really enjoyed it. I never read the books nor have I seen the OG movies (although I'm kind of enticed to now), so I basically had zero expectations, nostalgia or pre-knowledge, and was pleasantly surprised to see a very well-paced movie, with lots happening without it feeling rushed, and very solid character work. The main character's nuanced portrayal and slow turn to the dark side was a particular highlight. Having a phenomenal cast also didn't hurt obviously.
A movie script's quality tends to be a bit hard to judge as it gets muddied by the inevitable subsequent rewrites, the actors' performances and a director's own take, but I feel a bit more confident in Lesslie's writing ability than I was before when he was a total unknown to me.
The Green Lantern tv show got the Watchmen show writing staff. Now THEY would've written the heck out of an X-Film.
I will check out the Hunger Games prequel though.
