I like Origins as well, but only the first half because that stuff was actually relevant to Wolverine and not like "hey guys I got an idea for a Wolverine movie!" The ending was meh, and I don't like that they decided to have Gambit randomly appear for just 2 or 3 scenes... Gambits my favorite character and a genuine B-A, he deserves more screen time T_TBunJ said:
Bryan Singer to Direct New X-Men Movie
- Thread starter Logan Westbrook
- Start date
ok . . . I dont mind a new x-men movie been make // My question is more along the lines as to why // Then it comes to comics yes you can have 10 different comics all about the same characters but each one has a different set-up & comic book fans will understand this and pay it no heed // But when it comes to movies most people will assume that this one will have something to do with the ones that have come before or will at least come pair it to the ones that have come before and point out there all the inconsistency are
Doesn't Marvel have other characters that they could be making movies about?

Untill they bring the Xmen out of the real world and put it back into the marvel universe circa 95 or so(befor they blew up the world and redid thigns) it sucks....stop using ultimate marvel crap... even the 99 series was ahella better....
Xmen 1 was kinda good but to realistic and dripping in hollywoodazations(and toad was a pretty boy....) the other 2 films sucked becuse they kept ditching with the fiction...and Juggernaut was a faq.... (not that I do not like fags, no offense and all but I hate character dcking when there dose not need to be any)

It's no real shocker to anyone that the X-Men franchise has gotten significantly worse with each passing movie. X3 was a train wreck but at least made sense. Wolverine just through all internal logic out the door, leaving new fans confused and comic aficionados in uproar. It looks like they're trying to bring Singer back to salvage something from this franchise, but really, I think that feat's impossible.
One problem is that enough damage has been done to the series already, I don't know how many folks will be willing to endure a fourth movie. Another is Singer himself. The guy was a real talent at one point. I mean, he gave us The Usual Suspects, a real cinematic masterpiece. But after that...it just seems as though all his creativity and drive went into those earlier films. The second X-Men movie and Superman Returns were both rather flat and uninspiring. I don't expect much better for this new film.

ok, maybe you have me out of context, i read the original post and im just asking IN THE FUTUREfunguy2121 said:Please, read the original post at least before responding. What you did is like going on a gay rights thread and saying, "Hey, everybody, is this a gay rights thread?"Donrad said:should be a good one
would they be continuing where the third left off... or are they just gonna search through the past more?
im not complaining since i would like to see movies of the backgrounds more
will they be continuing or not.
thats all
thanks
The trick will be in finding an actor that can do a younger Beast as good as Kelsey Grammar surprisingly did with mature blue beast, but with more the flavor of the first comics. In fact if they do go for more of that flavor while still keeping the Bryan Singer touch that we enjoyed in 1 and 2, I will be content.Disaster Button said:
We may even find out in the X-men movie universe how Prof X ended up in his wheelchair, which won't be fun to watch but enriching all the same.

This.
Excellent comics lead to high expectations and the movies failed miserably. Seen Wolverine: Origins? Technically in the X-Men series. Note how every single freaking person is bouncing off of walls? Only people like Beast or Weapon XIII (or XII? Been a while since I read them) did that.
They completely dropped Nightcrawler from the third movie, after introducing him in the second which as one of my fav char's, is unacceptable. Even in the movie version of him. And they aren't really going anywhere. The story lurches from one marvel 'verse to the other, then to a whole new one they made. If it was at least focused then it would be better.
But anything that doesn't include decent versions of Gambit, Rogue and Nightcrawler is going to suck.
I'm really getting sick of these prequels/reboots. Batman Begins, Superman Returns, The Incredible Hulk, now First Class... And that's not even mentioning Halloween, Friday the 13th, Star Trek, The Fly, A Nightmare on Elm Street (2010) and even Highlander (2010).JaredXE said:
I hated the X-Men movies. They f**ked with my continuity coherance.
The ONLY comic book I'm looking forward to is the animated "Under the Hood" by Judd Winick.

Pretty much because they killed off the best characters at the start of the movie, or simply removed them. Not to mention Jean's habitual reincarnation and subsequent annoyingness.Disaster Button said:
Okay, okay. Ian Mackellen as Magneto flying on a fucking bridge was awesome. But is that really worth the admission?

At first, from what I heard, I thought this would be some sucky teen-friendly crapfest, but now I'm cautiously optimistic. So long as Stewart and McKellen are in it.
