I've been reading X-Men off and on since around '82, and I think that for some of the characters -- like Pyro for example -- the movie version (of the first 2; haven't seen 3) is about a billion% improvement.Nesagwa said:

I thought Juggernaut had no place in the X-Men movie, he was an off and on villian in a lot of marvel comics, like spiderman etc., plus yeah, he's not a mutant, his armor was enchanted by a stone and when he wears it he is near invincable.
What they should have done was start rolling the Apocolypse storyline from the very first X-Men movie, and then in this one he could have been the main villian, and at the beginning of the film say Cable or Bishop could have come back in time to warn the X-Men. But yeah a lot of the coolest x-men shit is just too complicated to fit into one or even 3 movies.

Wow, you really are dumb. You bitch about me geeking out about Halo > Deathstar - and yet you yourself are geeking out by claiming it wouldn't happen.
You are seriously one of the dumbest people I have ever encountered on the net. And that's saying something.

This is what happens when you get pissed at Bryan Singer for directing Superman Returns.
This piece of shit happens. It will no doubt make money, no matter how bad it is.
So much was wrong with it. I don't even have the time to type it all out. Or atleast back it up.
1. The Cure was alright, not nearly enough time was devoted to it. It was only here for Magneto to have a reason to hate humans. So in a way, for a Magneto conflict it was needed. Should have beenthe plot.
2. Jean should have stayed dead. Singer was the only one who could have pulled the Phoenix story off. He seemed to get it. What was happening here was really a slap in the face. Jean had no real personality or even did anything the majority of the movie. The explanation for her powers is crap. If she had a purpose other than disintegrate shit it could have possibly been good. It wasn't. It sucked. Ruined one of the best stories that could have been told.
3. The Cast of mutants in the movie was bad. So many useless characters. Colosus and Beast were the biggest dissapointments. "Okay so here you throw Logan...and yeah thats really about it. We'll throw you in the ending fight too." Sp much more could have been done with Beast and The Cure. I really expected him to want to take it. Angel served no purpose as well. I really hoped he'd do something. One of my favorite X-Men...
Brotherhood people were cool this time around. No real problems with them. Juggernaut should have never been attempted. He had the best written line in the movie though.
Halle, you wondered why Storm had such small parts in the first two movies? I got the answer. It dawned on me after seeing you react to The Cure. How you talked to Jackman on screen. YOU CAN'T FUCKING ACT! I really think it's the Super Hero thing...or maybe it's because you aren't getting naked saying "Make me feel goooood!"
Speaking of Wolvie. He and Magneto were the only ones that I thought were pretty spot on again. Only thing is...him not giving Jean some sweet lovin'
Forest scene was awesome. Seeing his skeleton second best effect in the movie.
If all that wasn't enough the final battle was quite boring in that it was incredibly short and mainly consisted of trash mobs getting raped.
And whats this? The Cure may not be permanent?1
Wolverine prequel FTW.

Apparently you didn't get it's reference either.
That line wasn't referring to the Rick James sketch.

That bonedouche was SUPPOSED to be Spike. Juggernaut ISNT a mutant. But that doesnt bother me that they made him a mutant what DOES bother me is that they didnt even acknowledge that him and Xavier are step brothers. Thats what makes Jugs an interesting character in the books is his hate for Charles. They lamed him out at the end....it would have been much more interesting to see him bust through that wall in the facility, surprising Kitty and then setting up a fight between Jugs and Colossus (who would have to save Kitty who is SUPPOSED to be his love interest). But NOOOOOOO the entire f'in movie had to be the Wolverine/Storm power hour. Im not saying I hate the movie b/c its obvious that the way it was made was to appeal to BOTH the hardcore comic purists (who would know the deal with the bonus scene....able to see that it pointed to a much deeper story for another movie) and the casual movie goer who just wanted to see a typical summer blockbuster.
