I’m a movie enthusiast and cannot wait until the summer big blockbusters arrive, but year after year they seem to progressively move up in the calendar. In May alone, we have the new X-Men spinoff X-Men Origins: Wolverine (May 1), the new Star Trek (May 8), and Terminator: Salvation (May 21).
What makes this overly exciting is that I’m a dedicated fan of each of these series, particular Terminator. I also religiously follow the new TV series The Sarah Connor Chronicles since its first airing (Summer Glau is amazing). For the Terminator series, it has been long hiatus after long hiatus between movies in the series (1984, 1991, 2003, and 2009), but each one is a spectacular and worthy entry.
I’m not a big fan of Wolverine, but I’m glad to finally see Gambit in an X-Men movie because he’s my favourite character. He’s suave, charismatic and kicks butt. What is there not to like?
Star Trek is one of my favourite TV series of all time, right up their with the X-Files, although my preference is to the brilliant TNG series (The Next Generation). I haven’t had the chance to fully appreciate the original series but now I can.
