Nightcrawler was very cool... but his accent was terrible.

I just wish they would build on the characters they have rather than concentrate on a load of half-developed afterthoughts.

The only problem with X-Men is that you can't possibly give all of the characters the proper attention in a 2 hour sitting and have a storyline. If some of the characters will be gone in this episode than that is fine with me because it leaves room for ones we have not yet seen on the screen.

Calis · 25th June 2005, 12:41 AM

Thats why I like the characters they chose.

Just read that Ellen Page is going to be Kitty Pryde in X3.
Never heard of her - hope she's good.

Certain ? Some other names were already announced and denied before. At least, she looks the part.

Winters_Sorrow · 28th July 2005, 11:53 PM

Well, as certain as these things get. Just read it on the Empire film magazine website.
They're usually accurate & reliable.

Leto · 28th July 2005, 11:58 PM

Now, if they start filming it, it would be great. Unfortunatly, Halle Berry is confirmed ?

Winters_Sorrow · 29th July 2005, 12:01 AM

really? hadn't heard that.
she's not terrible in the movies, just not very interesting.

Leto · 29th July 2005, 12:09 AM

pointless would be the word.

Winters_Sorrow · 29th July 2005, 12:12 AM

well that'd be your word - I'm waiting for when the bad guys attack when she's in the shower...

Leto · 29th July 2005, 12:16 AM

Only if we see wolvie and cyke shower too.

Culhwch · 29th July 2005, 12:37 PM

I thought Halle was out a long time ago. Something about not getting paid enough, or being too much of a respectable actor ever since the remarkable Catwoman. And, to a lesser extent, Monster's Ball...

Frankly, considering how skewed the Wolvie/Cyke dynamics are going to be now they've killed Jean, I wouldn't be surprised if the lads wind up seeking comfort from each other.

I hope they have a good proportion of action in this one - one danger with X-Men stories is that they can start focussing too much on the characters, like the Ultimate X-Men title does, or the X-Men cartoon, and come of more as a teenage soap opera plus mtant powers. The right mix between character and action is the key - they've got it fairly right in 1 and 2, hope that lasts.

X3 is happening... I think it's still filming, but I think it's also still supposed to have a May 2006 release date. I don't know what they're doing.

Don't know that anyone does since they changed directors.

So - they're doing stuff - we'll have to wait and see what 'stuff' looks like...
