Miscellaneous Movie Musings

[Gemini Cricket]

I loved X-3. It is my favorite of the three. I was a huge fan of the comic books and was delighted by a lot of things they got right.

Spoiler:

I liked the Fastball Special. Fans of the comic will know what that is.
I thought it was bold to 'kill off' Jean Grey, Xavier and Cyclops.
Loved Juggernaut.
There needed to be more Colossus and more ass kicking by Beast.
Kitty was a little weak. I mean she and Colossus are supposed to hook up.
Loved all the Golden Gate Bridge/Alcatraz stuff. Wonderfully done.
I found it curious (although it is consistent with the comic books, I think) that all of the X-men except Storm are white and all of the bad mutants were mutants of color. I think almost every race was represented by the bad mutants. I found that amusing...
Loved the CG work at the beginning that made McKellan and Stewart 20 years younger. Nicely done. They looked fab.
I'm glad the cure doesn't work all that well...
Loved all the gayness that were in the first two as well...
And, yes, stick around for the bit after the credits...
