Better characters? yeah right not IMO.
and as for wolverine in the movies not being able to fight as well as people would like... first off you can't have him kicking the shit out of everyone he fights and 2nd i think they were trying to go for that the mutants are just like regular people but with their own unique abilities. Just because they are mutants doesn't mean they are good fighters. the only mutants that i can think of that may have some fighting skills is
mystique, toad, death strike, dead pool
Wolverine is one of the best fighters in he MU, and if anyone was going to have MA skills in the movies it would be him since he's an actual soldier with training.
In any case, I'm tired of Wolverine movies too. Logan can regenerate from anything and has indestructable bones. It's not fun or intresting to watch a movie where the protagonist is never in actual danger because he's unharmable. What's the point?

They did make it seem that Deadpool was about to decapitate him in the last one. And Phoenix could have disintegrated his molecules if she wasn't hanging on to some emotion.

It's the same thing. Notice how no one exactly rushed out a sequel for Returns.

I can kind of see where he was going with that, he just meant people who are ridiculously hard to kill by normal means. The people in Supes' rogues gallery who can hurt him are superhuman themselves.
The thing about Supes though is that his most popular movie was the one where he spent half of it getting his ass kicked by super powered beings... so it does support my statement about it being boring watching an invincible person run aroud for 2 hours.

Well... I'm not really sure what that's gotta do with me lol. Never said people who are impossible to kill don't get movies. It's just that, they don't tend to sell very well, because most people don't want to a watch a movie where the protagonist is unkillable.

The other guy working on the script Schwentke seems to be the better one
i watched the trailer for Red a while back looks like its gonna be a fun movie
And i don't think its the "Unkillable" thing if you take a look at most of the people these types go up against they're out of their league to actually do any sort of damage to them.
