league of extraordinary gentlemen

i saw this movie today. i really liked it, but the ship was way too unrealistic. the fight scenes weren't too bad but the characters were great.
anyone see it or want to see it?

movie was coo i like mena she was cool esp when she transforms also skinner he was cool funny too. when the movie ended got people laughin lol but yea i didn't think this movie deserved such a low rating
Good effects, characters and action. The plot is fairly generic and bogged down in the 1st half of the movie with "introductions" of all the characters. A sequel to this could be great. It's a good more mature alternative to the new wave of comic book movies.

i really think that they're going to make a sequel out of this movie because of the way it ended. i liked how they didn't waste any time and just went right into the introductions of the characters and pretty much the main point of the movie; however, i was confused as to what they were trying to do during the rising action.

i like how they didn't give each person's power away like on movies they tell what power they have and do it quickly this movie took time like mena didn't get to see what was so special about her until later and after that she came with a suprise in the 2nd fight

I didn't think the ship was unrealistic, it was rather believable in the context of the movie. If the ship was unbelievable, you'd have to discount the majority of the weapons used (automatic weapons?), as well as the other modes of transportation (Nemo's Automobile?). They were all simply years (approximately 20) ahead of their time. The ending was only mildly ehh, and I liked the first enough that I'll see a second movie, only to see what literary heroes they'll grab and put in. I liked it simply for that reason, that it's a hellified nod to an extensive literary history that was just fantastic. Dorian Gray and Captain Nemo were the shit. I especially liked seeing Nemo fight, although I think the movie had mild orientalist aspects of it (it had a victorian love-affair with itself), watching him fight up there and produce high-end technology was something else. I agree with alex's statement that it's good to see more mature alternative to the wave of comic book movies, but I disagree in your classification of this movie as mature, relative to the Hulk or X-men 2. This movie is probably a little more relevant than spider-man or daredevil, but it only hints at anti-imperialist sentiments. The comic book though, I have not read, and that is a lot less tamer than the movie was, in many regards. The movie has piqued my intersest, and now I think I might pick up an issue of it.
