If worst comes to worst, we can all just fall back to playing as Wolverine in Marvel Cosmic Invasion haha. The demo was surprisingly good, even with the half baked ameteur voice acting sprinkled in here and there. I'm not blinded by nostalgia, and based on what I've played, MCI mops the floor with the original 1992 X-Men arcade game, as it should since it's a 30-something year old beat em up. Mind you, the 1992 original still has a fantanstic presentation, strong art direction and sound design that hold so much artistic merit and ooze's the early 90's.

Man is time flying. I'm approaching 42, and i still don't look it nor feel it. People think I look 8-10 years younger than my age, and a couple of my nieces still say I look like I'm in my 20's. But when you're a bit of a health freak, and eat incredibly healthy(It's almost like a bootcamp regimine on my end), exercise, avoid the bad stuff, rarely drink, don't smoke(etc), plus genetics, it all goes a long way. And, having killer cheak bones doesnt hurt either. lol High quality Extra Virgin Olive oil and organic Cacao powder/nibs are two of the best de-agers that i take on a regular basis, both of which include many other benfiits.

Cacao, especially quality cermenonial grade, or if you can actually find organic regular cacao that's fresh(Should have a potent rich aroma) also enhances your mood, and makes you more creative, because it contains Adandamide, aka, the 'bliss molecule'. I can't live without it. Whenever i do decide to game or watch a movie, I always take cacao prior(Including healthy fats & protein) because it just makes everything far more enjoyable, you're more honed in and the caffiene will kick up your energy.

Anyways, i still need to respond to a few other posts you sent my way. Including our conversation about the dreaded(Drum roll...) Masters of the Universe(2026). I'll defend the 1987 original to the heavens and back, warts and all. Frank Langella is all you need to know. No brainer! Best on-screen villian performance of all Time. Darth vader is nothing by comparison.

I mean really, I can't think of a single comic/cartoon based on-screen villian that has come close to topping Skelator's Monlogue below. Frank's theatre background and his deep, resonant and powerful commanding Shakesperian voice is unmatched imo. I mean, you've got Tim Cury & Daniel Day Lewis, and ya they're fantastic(Bill the Butcher in Gangs of New York for ex) in their own right, sure. But I don't think either would of been able to pull this role off in particular, not nearly as well. And as always, Dolph looks like a god, like a super solider from another universe as Sly put it.

The new He-man? Not a chance. Like you pointed out earlier, Trap-Jaw(His opening fight against Man-at-arms in particular.) and skelator's overall appearance and throne design were the highlites. Even though those beedy red soulless eyes detracted from Leto's performance, regardless of staying true to the source material and skelator's original iconic cartoon & comic book design. Leto's voice was also completely altered and motified, while Langella was using his actual voice. That says a lot right there! And even with leto's motified voice, it still paled in comparison to Frank's.

@1:15 and onwards never gets old MOTU(87) is easily my favourite bad-good movie of all time.
