Jean/Phoenix overall but especially the scene with Scott. It was so ..omg, I never knew I shipped the two but it was incredible, the way it looked and the sadness and he could finally look at her with his own eyes and omg, the kiss

Ohhhhh. I am a huge Cyclops girl (yes, a small minority :P) so must watch!

[fivil]

Well, a minority compared to Wolverine fans, I'm sure, though while I do prefer Logan to Scott, I never really shipped Jean with anyone. I was sort of undecided on the whole thing.

Grrr. Rogue.

(Er, this is silly, I'm doing Hogwarts Today but I came across this post, and as I am more obsessed with X-Men than is healthy, I already knew what happened in the film.)

That thing with Rogue and the thing with Mystique are my two main points of contention! So out of character. Ah, well. We'll say the cure wears off. Because. GRRR.)

And, yes. Charles/Erik is *love*

Hee. so, sorry for randomly spamming your LJ :D

[fivil]

Hullo! I know you by name through chriek so it's okay. :)

Yeah, majorly OOC action in this movie. Especially Rogue. I mean, yes, her powers can be a burden but still, Bobby understood and it was so clear one of her motivations for doing was that she saw what might've been the beginning of something with Bobby & Kitty. But no, she "did it for herself". Yeah. Okay. :/

Charles/Erik, yesss.

[inathunderstorm]

Grrr. So angry about this. *scowls* Esp. since my OTP is, demented as it sounds, Magneto/Rogue. Oh, well. I'll always have AU and the Age of Apocalypse timeline where they're married! *clings to comics defiantly*

:D

Well the cures wears off. It's canon. Erik can move the piece of chess, remember? Means that the cure is not definitiv. And who knows? Maybe it will even duplicate their powers...

[hezzabeth]

Did they even bother to cover who Rogue's real mother was?

[fivil]

Nope. Comic canon can fly out of the window at times but I'd wish they'd taken some of the interesting things from it and corporated it into their own movie canon.

[lydzi]

I agree with all you said. I had the same exact emotions through the movie.

Well I really liked the Brotherhood: such a group of punk people o_O. I was all "are we going to see Marylin Manson or what? o_O".

I wish we had some sort of scene between Pyro and Rogue you know. I wanted to know if Pyro was going to act like Magneto towards Mystique on that one. Could have been really interesting. Ah, well, he would have probably done the same thing.

I so can't like Iceman. And you're right: Major GUH for the Kitty/Bobby thing. What the hell? o_O.

[fivil]

I liked Bobby in X2 but in this film he just sucked. Even the Iceman/Pyro fight was a bit disappointing, it was over before it even began.

[lydzi]

Yeah it was kinda rushed truth to be told. But even like that: it was pretty awesome. Oddly I never paid attention to Pyro till X3. Don't know why. He was just a brat. But I really like his character now.
For Bobby, it's not his fault. I guess I never found him good enough for Rogue in the first place.

[lydzi]

I just had an epyphanie right now: how come I never friended you? o_O. I'm always reading you journal dude :o!

So here's the question all so awaited: can I friend you? (I'm such a polite girl *grins*)

[fivil]

'Course you can! :)
