One of the beauties of my job is that I can take a long lunch once in a while. Today, after I took care of the must-finish work, my friend Sarah and I caught a noon matinee of Wolverine.
It was very good, especially if you don’t care about all the messing about with the origin story—and, well, I don’t.
But besides the fact that it’s a pretty amazing comic book movie, I realized that men and women are going to be watching this film in very different ways.
There was a scene where Wolverine did some amazing action sequences, slicing here, dicing there, defeating the bad guys, and then paused, posing, on the top of something or other.
“Wow,” I said.
“Yeah,” Sarah responded, “he’s buff.”
And yeah, that’s pretty much exactly what I was looking at, and thinking. Action, shmaction. Hugh Jackman is hot.
I must agree.
Plus he has a nice hairy chest. No waxing for him.
Yeah. Sexy from head to toe, that man is.
I’m thinking that when the DVD is released, there are going to be a lot of women slowing down the scenes where he runs naked through the woods.
Not that I’d be one of them. No, of course not.
He certainly is a fine specimen of masculinity, not too pretty and hot, hot hot.
Will you also be capturing frames for use as laptop wallpaper :)
Don’t be ridiculous. I’ll just post them on my blog.
