For years now comic book adaptations are being put on the silver screen, this year has been no exception with X-men First Class, The Green Lantern and Captian America. Only one of which I thought was good, have a guess hehe. But is it really asking too much for studios to make something remotely new? In recent years (now more than ever) it feels like this is what we're getting reduced to when it comes to movies.

And it's not just comic books, there's a reason I won't watch a single 'Transformers' movie. I'm a big fan of 1980's culture and music, I love the look and sound of the 80's. Transformers to me it is that happy mid to late 1980's memory, is it really that wrong to want it kept that way? as well as comic books it seems like anything from my generations childhood is being taken out of happy memory land and given an awful 2000's/2010's spin on the concept, then adding someone like Micheal Bay in the mix just adds insult to injury. I want to see brand new ideas, I don't want to see things that worked in the past brought back.

I now it's daft to have a proprietorial attitude over those things, and I'm not saying it purely belongs to my age range. But what is the matter with leaving something as a happy memory? My only real exceptions for that rule are Star Trek and Doctor Who, because those actually worked coming back.

What do you reckon?
