My X weekend...
So who is your favorite X-Men Character?
Mine will be forever Wolverine. Always have been intrigued, fascinated and idolized this mutant. Even before Hugh Jackman played his role. Of course when I was a kid and there were still no comic scans and there was still no internet, you amuse yourself by buying comics in Filbar's, but cards wherever they may be available and find yourself a hero to idolize. So when Cyclops asked Wolverine in the first installment of the movie X-Men - "what would you prefer? yellow spandex?" HELL YEAH! Wolverine's yellow-blue costume kicks ass!!! haha
I had the chance to watch all three movies a while ago (yeah I pulled an all nighter) and I must admit, I think it sucked the first time I watched it, but now...I can understand why it sucked the first time around. Of course, X-Men fans expected so much out of this trilogy and it did not fail. What failed or what the problem was this is a movie not a comic book. There are certain limitations in a movie unlike the wildest imaginations of the artists and writers. I noticed that this being an X-Men movie is hard for the movie industry. Why? budget, actors, scene's etc. You can understand why Batman Begins, Iron Man, Spiderman movies became big. They are alone. With this X-Men movie, there is a lot of characters and I think the producer's, writers, director and actors did a good job. My theory might be wrong when the Avengers movie comes out haha...but we will see.
A couple of things I noticed in the three films. Jubilee was in all of the three films. Ellen Page was not the Kitty in the first two movies. Psylocke as we know it had a crappy role as well as Colossus and Angel. Still the question left unanswered. Will there be another X-Men movie? Xavier's mind transferred to the coma patient of Moira McTaggert and Magneto looked like he still have powers. Wolverine and Magneto will have movies but what about the X-Men?
Time to read up on Endangered Species and Messiah Complex :D
