I'm starting to get the impression I'm the only person on the planet who liked LXG. That's so sad. Poor, poor movie full of cute guys, and ... um ... nice costumes and ... um ... cute guys ...

Heeeeeey ... my hormones are making me like the movie! *user smacks her hormones with a rolled-up newspaper* Bad hormones! No Orly for a week!

I have indeedy read the comics. Well, okay, I've read the first volume, because I do not wish to spoil myself as I collect them in volumes. (Though, yeah, I get that I'm spoiling myself by reading up on the movie and such.)

What I mean by people saying it's nothing like the comics is not so much the character additions and things, but the general feeling of it, which is of course a very nebulous thing. Visually, the movie grabbed me completely, and it had this great snarky humor, which was was I liked the books.

I think it was a very good adaptation and I'd personally rather have a movie-adaptation that was adapted well to it's cinematic qualities as opposed to staying intensely true to the original source material and being uninteresting.

Of course, I'm not a League fanatic--there are other comics I'm far more passionate about and think are far more fantastic--so for me, it really came down to how it didn't degrade the characters, and how it was so pretty! And I really did enjoy it. ^^

And that was way more than you wanted.
