Saw X-Men III last night with my daughter, anyone seen it?

Note: If you do not want to learn too much about this film, read no further, spoilers.

I saw it. I think it was great and every one who sees it has to stay till the end of the credits, there is a surprise. My favorite line is "Don't you know who I am? I'm Juggernaut, bitch!!"

Yeah, I left before the credits. Want to fill me in? (there have already been spoiler warnings, so shoot)

I am so sick of hollywood pulling this crap. I really really really really don't care who held the G.D. boom microphone in a few scenes. How about if everything we bought, from a toaster to a TV to a car had a list of everyone who worked on it? Hollywood and their stupid unions have no touch with reality. And crap like this really has to go.


Anyway, not a bad movie. Not great. I'm was a huge X-Men fan until you had to read a dozen titles a month to keep up with things. The second movie was great, imo. This one, okay.

Thought The Beast was great. Might buy the DVD when it comes out just to watch those battle scenes in slow mo.

I stopped collecting comics about the time there were close to a dozen Xmen comics. I have over 5000 comics stored in boxes in my closet. The Juggernaut was always one of my favorite characters. In the comics he is 6'10", 900 pounds. Did they just have a big guy playing him, or was he enlarged by movie magic?

Exclamation

I'm looking forward to seeing X3, I'll probably wind up seeing it at the cinema and getting it on DVD to complete the series

One thing though...and I've got no wish to turn this into a Marvel superhero rant...but...Where's Gambit?!?!?



Come on guys, we've had Shadowcat, Nightcrawler, Storm, Cyclops and even Jubilee! Gambit was always one of my favourites (the other being Wolverine) when I used to watch the original animated series.

Jug is just a big guy, not that big.

I heard something about Gambit. They said his personality or whatever was too much like Wolverines, and they felt it would be overkill with the tough loner type. Not that I agree, just what they said.

So really, what happened? Charles woke up in a hospital bed after the credits? Is that is?

*Don't read if you don't want to know the end*



yeah at the end it shows the doctor that was talking about the patient who was brain dead, and the patient says hello to the doctor in the voice of the professor.
