Playing on my iPod: Whatta Man by Salt N Pepa & En Vogue
No, I wasn't generating steam whilst I watched the new X-Men Origins Wolverine (although I was damn close to doing so because of all the shirtless and nude scenes featuring HJ. Phwooooar).
Actually, Hubby and I spent hours steam cleaning our dirty carpets and upholstery (it's not a euphemism for something else, you filthy, filthy people) and we decided to reward ourselves with dinner and movie. Fortunately hubby was agreeable to seeing Wolverine as I was pretty keen to see it. Purely for the story/plot/characterisation etc., of course...
Well, I REALLY enjoyed the film, and love mutant Logan/Wolverine even more so after seeing it. It starts with Logan as a boy and progresses to show the development of the character as he struggles with the power he possesses and the animal within him, which are both a gift and a curse.
I felt so much sympathy for him. Despite his deeds, he is incredibly likeable and - dare I say - lovable. This is largely due to Hugh's sympathetic portrayal of the character. I won't lie to you, it's a massive part of the appeal, but the character is so powerful and complicated and angst ridden, you can't resist him. He's gorgeous, a badass, but also noble to the core.
If you're a fan of action flicks, you'll enjoy this movie. If you're a fan of sweet romantic comedies, you'll be a little disappointed (although the love between Logan/Wolverine and Kayla/Silverfox is touching). For those of you who have the hots for Hugh and want to see him in all of his glory, it's worth the price of the ticket. 'The Best Body on the Planet and the Universe' award definitely goes to Hugh Jackman. My goodness, he's ripped!
Oh, and watch out for 'barn' scene. Hugh can park his bike in my barn any time he likes (!). He he he he.

Heheh. My son watched it at the movies, came home and said I'd enjoy it because (and I'm not lying here) Hugh Jackman spent most of the time with his shirt off!!!!
So I had to watch it after that, didn't I? And whoa that barn scene! He sure has nice legs. *snigger*
Your son knows you well, eh?!
I thought it was wonderful how his shirt appeared to be off/come off at any opportunity. And how he had to run around naked so the world could see his peachy butt *sigh*.
He does, indeed have nice legs. Such long limbs! ROTFL.
