DONE!!!! AHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHH!!!!! At the worst, it was hella bad, but now I know how to crank out a 12 page paper in an hour and a half.
On to better topics..in some ways worse.
I saw
X3.
And...it was BAD..OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO..it was bad.
Now let me refine this. It wasnt as much bad as it was dumb. The first two movies were very intelligent in their approach to filmmaking, editing, and dialogue. This movie took that and just made it for stupid people. Its the Laguna Beach of superhero movies.
For example, I really believe that the presidents only line of dialogue in the movie was "My God....." Which he repeated 15 times...
Where the movie worked..it worked in parts. Some scenes were choice: Multiple Man, Pyro/Iceman fight.....but i really didn't care. There wasnt any development in the characters for me to care. Which worked out great, because the film makers didn't care either. Also,
mike had a good point. All mutants can now jump 40 feet in the air and land safely without breaking a bone. At least, thats what the film thinks.
Its those little things that compound and bog down the movie. Stupid little shits that just proved to me that they were trying to hurry up and make this movie instead of thinking it out.
I could go on, but ill save my full review for a later time and another website.
Ill finish with this though. The second to last shot in the film sums up the movie as a whole. The good guys are victorious. People are dead or cured. Then cut to wide shot of the Xavier Mansion. Wolverine standing proudly with his chest out. No real reason. Like action ended not 5 seconds ago. cut to mansion. Quick scene with storm. Then this wide shot. Wolverine standing in front of the grounds surveying the area. I was reminded of a Family Guy line Stewie had...."Its good to have land."
Well today is international satan day or
international bad horror remake day, which is pretty much the same thing. So make sure to drop satan a line. He likes to know how your doing and will probably mail you a five dollar check.
Its like someone has breathed life back into me. Things are finally good again. I get to actually read (btw,
A Confederacy of Dunces...read it.) and spend time just farting around with nothing hanging over my head.
And now, back to reading. June 12...im back in town...catch you fuckers then
