X-Men 3

The emotions I felt while entering the theater for X3 nearly parallels the emotions I had going into X2. I thought I was really going to hate the movie. Unlike X2, in which I absolutely loved the movie, X3 left me pleasantly entertained, but I was not fully satisfied.

Anyone who complains about lack of character development, characters being misrepresented or whatever is beating a dead horse. These are the same complaints that have been brought up through each of the X-men movies and there were absolutely no signs of it changing for this one. The plot was actually pretty interesting, and the action was better than I thought it would turn out. Like everyone else, I felt the “j/k” type ending was absurd.

I’m sure many will question what Bryan Singer could have done with the film, but what we have is pretty decent. Supposedly a full hour of footage was cut, so maybe we’ll see some of it on the DVD.

Overall, probably not the best movie to close the series, but that is not the first time people have said that about trilogies that later became classics.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Well, the key word is "supposedly." I do not have a credible source for that. I'm sorry. I guess I'm just really hoping that it is true so that my opinion of the movie can change.

I only mentioned it because I remember reading about it on some comic book message board on Friday when I was reading fan reviews and a friend of mine said something around those lines as well when I was talking to him about the movie. If I remember correctly, some scenes were Juggernaut Vs. Colossus and a Wolverine flashback.

So, I just felt that it was worth mentioning. I wouldn't take it as fact at all.

How ya doing, buddy?
