X-MEN 3 SPOILERS...
I just saw X-Men 3...
Overall, I guess it was a pretty good movie, although I'm not sure where to rank it among the other two. A few random things bugged me... I didn't like that Cyclops and Jean Grey died - and I'm wondering how or if someone is going to bring them back from the dead in the next film, and if they do - will it be lame?
Jean Grey / Phoenix was pretty cool, I liked how she transformed from sexy to zombie, and how **** just seemed to disentegrate around her. The scene where Prof. X gets killed was just weird, though. He gives Wolverine a really weird look, almost Obi-Wan Kenobi-ish... I wasn't sure what to think about his expression, but judging by the end scene after the credit scroll, perhaps that was his was of saying, "Watch this." While it was pretty darn cool that he survived (and I don't know how you could say that scene was lame), I'm bummed out that the new Prof. X is going to be a different actor (presumably).
I was disapointed to see Rogue get vaccinated. I wasn't expecting her to do something like that... in fact, I was sure she was going to show up at the end battle and save the day, whilst telling Iceman and his little whore friend Kitty to go **** themselves. Totally betrayed her character from the comics.
Kitty was so freakin' cute. Juggernaught was awesome, but his costume sucked, and his use of the word 'bitch' just seemed forced, to me. Mystique's roll in the film was quite nice - I loved how she turned into the little girl whilst being held captive, and also how she betrayed Magneto. Beast was cool as hell. Angel was perfect. Iceman turning into solid ice was quite cool. The Pyro/Iceman duel came out really nice. Colossus, as usual, kicked ass. Storm didn't do anything for me, again - H. Berry is so wrong for that part.
Magneto's Brotherhood was so far from the comics that I really had no idea who any of the background people were supposed to be... while I was able to recognize some of the extras (Perhaps Blob, in the church scene, and a new Toad(?) at Alkatraz?), it really irritates me how my favorite X-Men have been altered so much for the movies... Who was the transvestite Latino? It resembled someone from X-Force. A black chick would have been more fitting to play Storm. Where was Gambit? Nightcrawler? Siren? Shouldn't Cable be coming around about this time?
Anyway... I actually enjoyed the movie. Ignore my ranting.
Another note :
The Ghost Rider trailer looked like ****. Pure ****.
I can't wait to see Superman! I just wish that John Williams was putting together the score.
