Don't get me wrong I am dying to see the movie. But... is it just me or is it slightly over commercialized? I mean myspace... and you go to Dell.com... almost everywhere is promoting this movie. Yes, it's going to be a hit... but I don't need to be TOLD to watch something good. ><

I couldn't get into the movie... I left after the first 45 minutes... I've never watched the first two, so don't mind me... I probably should have watched them before I went to go watch this one...

Visually, it was pretty good, but I still think the second one was the best. For being the last film in the series, this movie really didn't have much of a resolution. It didn't really say a whole lot about diversity, acceptance, and so forth. Or maybe it said something, but it just didn't make any sense. At any rate, the point did not really come across in the film.

QUOTE(serendipity x3 @ May 27 2006, 3:32 AM)  Spoiler! somewhat Okay. The part after the credits. Totally unbelievable.. when he died, there was no way he could.. be alive again. I teared at that part though. And I agree that the new characters weren't developed. It should've been longer ish? The whole Bobby, Rogue, Kitty love triangle thing was messed up. Kitty wasn't even that big of a character in the past movies. And I liked Phoenix in the cartoon X-men, but I didn't like her in this movie. And when she turned grayish or transparent-y and was "phoenix".. she reminded me of a bird. Remember when he was teaching the class? And they had the video feed of that doctor, Moira?, with that body? And he said something to the extent of, "What if you put the mind of father of two [something something] into the body of a killer [or something]" because that body has no conscious mind or something. He was teaching ethics at the time. IDK. But I'm guessing he left a part of him in that body? That's why when he said hello to the doctor she was suprised. How about when Magneto moved the chess piece at the end??? Hehehhee. |

Dude. So you know that one character that could take away the mutantness? Like, I thought he would play this huge role in the end where he could help Jean out. But he just disappeared in the end. Wtf?
I can't believe they put in the "I'm the Juggernaut, BITCH" part. The audience loved that part. Haha. |

There were loose ends everywhere. Especially if you stay for the movie and watch the scene after the credits roll. Just kinda confuses you more. Plus I don't like how most of the characters ended up... Just the beginning def threw me off. I don't know...I really think Singer should of finished the triliogy. And It was just a horrible way to end it really..... I dunno, I loved the first one when it came out, Thought the 2nd one was great, and was looking forward to the 3rd one and now that i've seen it...ah i dunno, it was incredibly sad. Not the kinda movie you watch over and over again in my opinion.. I dunno, it bothered me and I don't know why yet. *Ahhh hugh jackman was still yummy <3* |

^Ha. Agreed. Hugh Jackman...
 I must go add him to my celebrity crushes list. The movie itself...kind of confusing and...ah I didn't like it as much as the first two. |

I saw it the day it came out.
Surprising in quite a few parts. The end with Jean and Logan was what probably had my attention the most. Good movie overall, IMO.

So if it's the last movie, then why the cliffhanger?

Ahh, I should have read this post before watching x-men. I forgot to stay after the credits.
The movie is so-so, IMO. |

I wouldn't really consider that a love triangle. It was more like he was being nice, and Rogue became jealous because they were actually able to touch each other. QUOTE(JumpforJoy @ May 27 2006, 2:20 PM) How about when Magneto moved the chess piece at the end??? Hehehhee. I'm pretty sure, from what my friend's boyfriend was babbling, that that was to signify him mentally regaining his powers since its all in their head anyway. I saw it last night and was actually pretty impressed, because I hadn't seen the first two. Meant to rent them today, but they were out. Drat. Still, it was interesting enoiugh, and I fortunately didn't spend the entire thing confused. |

It's like the Star Wars movies. Episode III wasn't the last film, but it was the last film of the prequel trilogy, which is why the plot of the prequel trilogy is neatly wrapped up in Episode III. X-Men III is the last film of this X-Men trilogy, so it should wrap up the plot of the trilogy, regardless of whether more X-Men films are made. |

I think what they're thinking is coming next is called Magneto, because if you look at Ian McKellan's IMDB page, it says they've announced they're making it, and judging by the chess piece, it would make sense.

Its the last of this story in XMen but not xmen overall? like they could make another one later on but about a prequel or phoenix version..... kind of like superman returns , they made the old movies but this is totally different from the older version. |
