XMEN
Ok, we need to talk about the Xmen Three movie for a moment.
Hugh Jackman... HOT... no complaints. I had to go to the bathroom during the movie, and I MISSED the part where he makes out with Jean Gray. Holy FUCK was I PISSED! That scene coulda provided me with fantasies for a year. God he's hot... especially as wolverine. Otherwise, he's ok, but nothing compared to his XMEN look.
Moving on... what's with Rogue? Her character in all three movies sucked! I was hoping she'd start using her powers by this movie more, but I guess not. I remember that in the cartoon, she was at par with Storm, and I liked it that way. Her character in this should have been Jubilee and someone else shoulda been rouge... but the REAL rouge, with the old fashioned white-on-the-top mullet! In our little Xmen group in grade four, I was ALWAYS Rogue. I feel misrespresented. She's usually such a sweet sexy woman. GAH...
Furthermore... what was with everyone getting killed off? I don't think its ever good when you wipe out half of your key cast within the first 15 minutes. I thought it was cool what they did with Mystique (not to give anything away), but that shoulda happened later in the movie. Also, the Archangel shoulda had a far more significant role in my opinion. The Phoenix's role was overdone. I think they shoulda tried to have more of a struggle between her and the "real" Jean Gray (her "alternate personality" ???).
Clearly they're just gonna have to make more sequals so they can improve on this. That way, Rogue can get her full powers, everyone who died can somehow return, and life in the mutant community goes back to normal.
