X-Men 3

Thought Psylocke was a bit rubbish really - all she did was walk out of a wall. Shame to 'waste' a cool character with such a minor appearance.

Not sure if she can kill with her psi-blades though - think she tenRAB to scramble people's brains. But I'll have to let someone more knowledgeable comment on whether they can kill...
 
Again? Storm was barely in the first two movies?



That seems to be your problem with X-men 3, I feel. I had no problem with the plot, and none with the character deaths. What I did have a problem with was the choppy editing, brevity of the movie (the subplots with Kitty/Rogue/Iceman and with Angel were barely touched), and the gaping hole in time on the Golden Gate Bridge (from day to night in one frame).

Oh, and the script was patchy, but the again it was for the first two movies also, so I'll pass on that.
 
Wonder Woman has even started casting yet so that wont start filming untill at least next year as they are writing the script at the moment!
So Joss Whedon is still a possiblity for X3 as they are ready to start filming in 9 weeks and Avi Ared has already said that it wont change and X3 will still be released in May 2006!
A spokeman for 20th Century Fox said "We understand Matthew's reasons for leaving, as nothing is more important than family," said 20th Century Fox president Hutch Parker. "Luckily, we have a fantastic script, the original cast is returning, and there will be some great new characters. We will decide shortly among several directors who are keenly interested in the project and are fully committed to remaining right on schedule."
So it looks like X3 will defiantly start filming in 9 weeks time!
 
I never knew James Marsden was in Ally McBeal but I dont really want to see him in it even though nothing could ruin the X Men films for me. The third film cant come quick enough for me!
 
Here is part of an interview with Joss Whedon from the SFX website where he talks about his plans for X3 if he got to direct it:

"MARK: You turned down X3 for some chick in spangly knickers. Give me a brief rundown of your essential ingredients for a great X-Men movie. What are we missing given that your name is not on these credits?

JOSS: Well, there
 
I just love the way they kept everything secret, no photos, no confirmations, just rumours...right up until they hit you with a brilliant trailer! Six months to go!
 
how the movie delt with rouge wasn't the best and if there is a x-men 4 then its not right not to have rouge in the movie with or with out her powers . i found a lot of things wrong with this movie and it wasn't as good as the other 2 movie before it
 
I hate myself for reading the spoilers - but that does sound absolutely fantastic. Total mutant mayhem - energy bolts, punches, claws, ice, hex bolts (Scarlet Witch) and killer mutant powers. Can't wait...!
 
So can anyone confirm there was a final scene after the credits in the film?

I wasnt gonna sit there for 10 minutes when everyone had left:( + it was dark !

And if there is any links to it? Cheers

Overall good film, bit daughting how everyone died those people pretty much define Xmen too, it sorta became a wolverine/storm film.... No multipleman Vs wolvierine fight though ? and they bring in Colosuss only to have him do very little.... I know they packed it but they can do better ! roll on X4
 
A rumour on Superherohype today has advised that Anna Paquin is signed to return as Rogue and that the Danger Room will finally be seen in X3 but it also denied that the Sentinels will be in X3!
 
I know I was so disappointed when I read that about Joss Whedon not directing X Men 3. However they must have a short list of possible directors so we may hear an annoucement sooner rather than later especially if they want to have X Men 3 out by July 2006!
 
There definately was an extra scene at the end. Not much to it, Moira walked in to the room with the brain dead man and he said "Moira." She look at him and said "Charles?"

I told last week how it was Patrick Stewart playing Charles' twin brother, and today they confirmed it on Superherohype.

doctor mango- Psylocke was in X-Men 3. She was the Asian girl with purple hair that emerged from the wall to get Warren Worthington Sr. Her future in the series is unlikely sadly.
She was caught by Phoenix when she demolecularised everything. I'm sure she was oRABcreen when she was hit, and could have had time to teleport/phase away like she does in the novel, but people are saying she was turned to ash as well as Arclight and Quill/Kid Omega.
 
Ugh - that's a horrible thought. I'd rather no Nightcrawler at all, I think.

Besides, Arad specifically said that the "cast" would return. Recasting a major character like that would send the franchise further down the Batman 3 &4 route. :o
 
Hmm, just read elsewhere that the Magneto film may not feature Sir Ian McK. That would be a damn shame as he has that whole gravitas thing going on. I suppose they will show him in his formative years being a bit of a good guy - and hint at his transformation into the evil character we later see. A bit like whatsisname's transformation into Darth Vader in the Star Wars films.

I just worry that spin-oRAB from the X-Men are going to be cr*p.
