caught the midnight show (first ones in line). amazing.
of course, sooo many ways they took liberties and broke away from the real x-men storylines, but i made peace with that back in the first movie. i started thinking of rogue as this seperate "marie" girl with similar powers, and it's easier to watch that way (though i'm still not happy with where they're taking her character). it's more like a very cool alternate version of x-men, because if you start getting annoyed at all the ways they changed the original stories, you can't enjoy everything else that's good about it.
don't worry, i won't give away any spoilers, i'll just warn you of the things i think you should know.
don't expect angel to have much screen time. look past the akwardness of beast's appearance and you'll see they did a great job on him. don't get excited about seeing an omega sign, it's unrelated to the guy. don't expect sentinels. do expect great fight scenes. ;] and most importantly, stay until after the credits. there is a very very brief, but key scene.
i can't believe i finally got to see it. i feel like i've been waiting five years (it's been three, so close). i'm so happy. *_*
oh yeah, had my last final today (japanese). it went well, i just hope it was well enough for an A.
movies,
yaaaay!,
