X-men 3: The Last Stand (Pre-impressions)

MuGen · 05-18-2006, 09:56 PM

I just saw a 7 minute long preview from FOX's HDTV special of X-men 3 The Last Stand, and I must say.... this movie looks slick...

By all means it's got the most mutant action you will ever come across and it puts the other 2 movies to shame when it comes to mutant action. I'm thinking you will be able to see at least 50 or more mutants in the movie, some of which maybe 20 you'll recognize if your an avid X-men comic reader.

Is anyone dying to see this? Any pre-debut impressions from the trailer or did anyone else see the preview?

You're member #3 I have to remind that we have fully functional movie forum.

I wasn't very impressed with with the second one. I remember enjoying it while watching it but looking back I have no idea why. Can't say I'm dying to see this one though I shall watch it.

Well I'm hyped for it!!!

Who were the other 2?
I shall have their heads!

It seems the more and more you talk, the less movies we like. I thought x-2 was the superior movie due to its plot, characters and some awesome action pieces.

I wasn't looking forward to this movie at all due to all the changes and problems it was undergoing at the beginning. Then ended up with a director who is only so-so. And then reading reviews of the script which have some plot details that are just out there.

But the trailer and 7-min preview had kind of turned me on it a bit. Not looking forward to it like it was batman begins 2 or spiderman 3 but I will see.

It's an hour and 43 minutes long.....

Just watched, I'm more excited then before. I've always loved when they have lots of characters like this...except in Mortal Kombat:Annihilation. That was just trying to hard.

I loved the M-Men series so far, but I am hesitant about it bieing out of the hands of Brian Singer, who treated the plots and characters with the utmost respect. I keep having this fear of X-Men turing into the Batman series once Joel friggin' Schumacher replaced Tim Burton.

But so far, I'm leaning towards it being good. Thed clips I've seen have been good and it looks like Singer's replacement is following him in tone and respect for the series.

One criticism... Juggernaut looks like a tool.

I had no idea that this was almost in the cinemas. Nice surprise.

MuGen · 05-19-2006, 08:59 PM

Well juggernaut does look like a tool but I can't imagine a live action football...

BreakABone · 05-20-2006, 10:24 PM

I don't get the live action football comment but eh.

It does seem like the rumor about it being about hour 45 mins is true.

Which parts it as one of the shortest superhero movies. Ever. With a huge cast. Hmm

I saw it last night. I thought it was pretty good, but I preferred 1 and 2.

The fight between Iceman and Fireguy (dunno his name) was kinda lame, and coulda been heaps better

DimHalo · 05-25-2006, 10:19 PM

I'm going to see it at midnight tonight. I am really looking forward to it.

Three movies and no Gambit. This series fails.
