X-Men 3

Just watched it. It was pretty short. Alot of action, but not much character development

Spoiler:

-Jean Grey *apparently* kills Prof. X.
-Wolverine kills phoenix Jean Grey
-Jean Grey kills Cyclops
-Rogue takes the cure
-Angel does nothing
-Psylocke dies
-Quill dies
-Iceman pwns Pyro
-Magneto and Mystique get hit with the cure
-Judging by the ending, Magneto's powers aren't fully supressed/are coming back.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

The major comment i've heard (and over half my school watched it, we had a free day after exams the day it came out) was that it was too short and

Spoiler:

they kill off everyone

I really wanted to see more character development, e.g. the Rogue/Iceman/Kitty love triangle, Colossus being more established, Angel actually doing stuff! Juggernaut was way cool though and funny with his accent.


No one really complained about the abundance of mutants, but moreso the lack of Gambit and the loss of Nightcrawler. There was some good lines "Do you know who I am? I'm the Juggernaut bitch!" But some are corny too "cocoon of telekinetic energy".

My major criticism was that after watching the trailers, the entire exposition is predictable and seems disjointed. The ending is obvious and the only real shockers happen in the non-action scenes in the middle.

Spoiler:

Umm... it's a metal chess set in front of Magneto. All the other sets are plastic.

However, stay behind after you watch the film. There is an epilogue, not so much a trailer which I heard about from friends, so I guess this is relatively reliable

Spoiler:

Remember the classroom scene wih Xavier discussing ethics, watching Moira Mactaggert on TV? Xavier and his ubiquity transfers his mind into the comatose guy

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Spoiler:

stop bitching about people dieing.
Xavier obviously isn't dead, Jean is obviously gonna still be alive (refer to comics.... anywhere with the phoenix) and Cyclop's body was not found and there is enough cloning and time manipulation to resurrect him someway or another.

Also when is it safe to assume everyone has watched it, because using these spoiler tags is a bit of a bitch

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Well as I pointed out before, in the comics, its seems that everyone second person dies at some point or another but gets resurrected/cloned/saved by time travel etc. Even if Cyclops is dead, he may and probably will come back (ala xavier)

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
