I saw the movie Electra last night.

I found myself really enjoying it. Believe me it was nothing like Daredevil. I do have somewhat of a beef because in the comic book Electra was Asian. I would've thought Lucy Liu would've been perfect for the part. Jennifer did a great job though. I am in love with the tatooed guy!!!

I'm not much of a nerd now but I used to collect a lot. I used to get X-MEN and all it's incarnations, at that time there were only 3. Now there's around, what, 90. AVENGERS, FANTASTIC FOUR, DAREDEVIL and ALPHA FLIGHT.

i thought elektra was greek.

I thought so too. Electra Natchios sounds pretty Greek to me.

In the Greek tragedy, but not in the comic book. Then again someone corrected me and said that she wasn't asian in the comic book. I'm soooo confused.

...but I had Electra Natchios for my midnight snack!

If she was asian, I'm a ninja!

MIGUELGOMEZ said:

No, she's definitely Greek. In fact, her father was a Greek ambassador. She trained with several asian ninjas (although, her sensei is a white dude named Stick), but that's about it.

Perhaps you are confusing her with Psylocke, as someone suggested? Psylocke started off as an english telepath, but had her consciousness transferred into the body of an Asian Ninja assassin.

I haven't seen the movie yet, but it looks pretty good. Jennifer Garner in tight leather?
