X-Men 3

I saw it yesterday and hated the fact that they killed off or 'immobilized' 6 main characters most of all i will miss Mystique and Magneto I missed the after Credits scene and am bafflled with what Magneto was doin before the Credits can anyone help me please.

P.S. Sorry I don't know what page its on to find myself
 
Wow - never seen Ashley Hartman before but she is Emma Frost. Altho I always saw her as older - early to mid 30s. After all, she's successful, run businesses, Hellfire Club, etc. - but I guess they need to make the characters younger and prettier to pull the punters in to see the movie!
 
Here is a bit of an interview with Famke Jannsen in which she talks about X3. It seems that she is definatly not confirmed to come back for X Men 3:

Will you come back for X3?
I might. It depenRAB. It depenRAB on many different things, who the director would be. Bryan Singer is no longer going to direct it. He did the first two and then he ended up doing Superman now. I love the first two X-Mens because I thought that Bryan Singer did such a great job. He elevated that whole genre. He’s a very talented director.

What do you think of Joss Whedon taking over?
I heard that rumor too. I’ve heard it on the street. I haven’t heard it from close reliable sources yet, but I don't know. I’d really have to look at his take on [it]. It’s so hard to imagine at this point anybody other than Bryan doing it because those two movies have such a specific distinctive look.

Isn’t it set up for you to come back as Dark Phoenix?
And Bryan really wanted to follow that storyline because it’s one of the biggest storylines in the X-Men comic books. So it would have been great for me if that had happened and that scenario. I’m not sure what they’re going to do. I know Dark Phoenix is a huge part of the X-Men saga, so I’m assuming they’re at least going to want to touch on it, but I don't know and I don't know whether I would want to be involved. That depenRAB on many different things.

Would it be weird to see someone else play Jean Grey?
If they went with the Dark Phoenix storyline, then maybe not because I think she’s supposed to be very different anyway.

They cant not use the Dark Phoenix storyline as this is what fans have been wanting to see since the end of X Men 2!
 
Wonder Woman? :eek:

The lamest of all the A-list superheroes.

How would any self-respecting comic book fan turn down X-Men in favour of Wonder Woman?
 
No I have not seen it but this was on Superherohype giving a description about the interview with Vinnie Jones on that show was posted by a fan who saw it:

"Vinnie Jones appeared this week on Irish television. He was interviewed on Irish station TV3 on 'The Brendan Courtney Show.' After his introduction, the recent X3 trailer was shown and then Vinnie discussed his part in the movie.

He said that his character was new and that there was "a lot of noise about it." He said that several of the scenes in the trailer, particularly the forest scenes, were filmed just before it was released.

He was asked about his superpowers in the movie and he said about Juggernaut that "when he gets going, he's just invicible...he runs through walls, smashes everything in sight...he gets asked to join Ian McKellen's (Magneto) band of warriors to take on the X-Men."

The host of the show said that it must be an actor's dream to play somebody invincible and then quickly asked could we see him going on to do more sequels. Vinnie Jones replied "I've signed for X-Men 3, 4 and 5...that's my contract...yes."

He also discussed briefly that he was onboard X-3 when Matthew Vaughn was director. He also said that he will be working with Brett Ratner again on Rush Hour 3.

Okay, that's it...I was quite surprised by the interview as he seemed very certain about doing more X-Men movies, I thought X-3 was the last in the series."
 
i hope that the normal characters will all be in it as they are great i can't wait for x-men 3, i hope its good and i can't wait to see what the flying object over the water is. :D
 
The thing is though that everybody expected them to release a X2.5 DVD but that never happened so I wouldnt put your hopes on a DC/3.5 DVD being released!
 
They may just revolve around the Phoenix, so pre darkness, but we know Famke is back...

I really hope they give Rogue her f'ing powers already... they shuda just done it when she absorbed mags, a knock in effect of that machine coulda been his magnetic powers taking a physical (rather than energy) manifestation i.e super strength, invulnerability, speed and flight... but nooooo, they r gonna leave her as the lame wimpy one...

k.
 
Spoiler for Magneto scene:

Magneto was just about able to move a metal chess piece without touching it - hinting his powers are returning.
 
Oh right, I'm not a hardcore fan of the comic books, but was aware of "Changling", but assumed he was different from Morph, lol.


Oh, and to those who mentioned a possible "Mutant Academy" film, there was actually an ill fated US show called "Generation X" which had Emma Frost as headmistress, and Jubilee as one of the main student characters. However, they only ever made a pilot (back in 1995, 1996) but it was poorly received and had a relatively low budget.
 
I would love to see the Sentinals make an appearance, and maybe they will once the mutant war actually starts. However I can see the makers thinking it'll be too much- we have the mutant cure storyline, Dark Phoenix and the mutant war, as well as introducing Angel and Beast to the lineup.

People are saying the
death count is high and significant- Patrick Stewart is one- so I believe Cyclops, Professor X and Mystique are the big ones. I'd prefer it if no one big dies, but they say it is the last in the trilogy, things must happen. I really don't want Mystique to die; I like the way she morphs into dead people, and they will loose that trick if she goes. I don't think it will be her as they also say she dies in custody, but I've seen a photo of her with Magneto and Pyro away from Alcatraz. She was actually rumoured to be the third spin off movie character anyway.
 
I saw the film this evening!

I won't give anything away, and it's out on general release in the UK tomorrow anyway!

Too short, but stay till the very end for a suprise!
 
Shohreh Aghdashloo has revealed that she is not playing Doctor Kavita Rao in X3 "I am playing Dr. Cecilia Reyes, and she has the power to create a six inch force field around herself and ward off any attacks." When asked about other details she said "To tell the truth, I don't know because I have not read the script yet. Brett is still working on it." SounRAB very interesting!
