greetings ATHQ..

anyone else going to see this upcoming film? indeed, i have had my eye on this for awhile now; set in the Victorian Era, a unlikely team of formidable aristocrats are brought together to stop the plans of a feared adversary; here it the link below..

The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen

yes, yes - i am a fan for "steampunk" & this film shall fit the bill nicely; also, the web-site is well done, lots of useful insight here *possible spoilers* ;p though, the main reason for this link is to view the trailer - enjoy..

after seeing this film last night, i have concluded the following ~ if you are a serious fan for the comic, then put that aspect aside on a shelf before seeing the film.. if you do not, then it may upset the hardcore purists.. i had to do this & approach the film for what it is ~ by itself, it was entertaining..

my only quirk ~ there is such a thing as too much action, especially towards the end ~ it kind-of drossed over the experience.. =. the characters (with exception of Tom Sawyer..) were more-or-less similar to the comic book.. hmmm, exception goes to Quartermann ~ i like how Quartermann is found in the comic book much better than the film.. then again, these are the little things..

special effects were impressive though.. ^.-
