I dunno. I kinda felt like they skimped on character development in favor of bombast (except for Pyro, who for such a minor character got a lot of room to grow, didn't he?)

But who could argue with that great opening with Nightcrawler?

I was sooo happy with the movie and thaught it was the best movie I have seen in the past year. This only thing it was missing was a good soundtrack, but that is entierly subjective.


IT WAS "MARVELOUS"

Marc

Have to say it was a great movie. Not number 1 of all time but it was a great movie.

Nightcrawlers scenes in the beginning of the movie had me staring at the screen with my jaw wide open and my chin hitting the floor!

The teleporting and fighting were done so well, and looked so incredible, I don't think I could have imagined it better than that!

And yes, indeed I did take a moment to consider my fave fuzzy-elf clix

Meanwhile, how many of you said "AW YEAH" when Wolvie popped those claws and went to town in the mansion?

I know I sure did!

Definitely! Wolverine was awesome, B/C/F and Flurry going wild! I didn't mean that the actor who played Cyclops did a bad job, to the contrary, I think he played the character well. I just don't really care for the character, at least as much as the other X-men.

Yeah, Cyke always seamed like a stick in the mud kinda character. Don't get me wrong, I like him. He's just too much of a goody-goody. Even in AoA, where he was supposed to be a "bad guy", he was still a goody-goody.

He's goody goody. That probable why I like that character the best out of all the xmen. LOL

As a basic bossy, goodie-goodie know-it-all myself, I identify too much with Cyke. I guess I live vicariously through my favorite, Wolverine.

Yeah, great picture, for an action movie. Too many great scenes to name.

Everybody on these boards has remarked on Nightcrawler's "tattoos"...Did anyone else get the impression that they were scars, not tattoos?

It was my impression that they were scars. Well, tatoos are scars, too, but with dye added. So, I guess they were tatoos with no dye that he applied himself. Just my $.02

I loved the movie. Much better than the first.

He mentions that they are tattoos (or at least self inflicted). "One for every sin."

like bullseye's "scar-tatoo"... i think that's what they were "supposed" to be.

I got the impression that they were scars, not tattoos. Tattoos would've only been pigment on his skin, while scars would've more likely produced the 'raised' effect that we saw in the movie.

But that's just my $.02 ...

Nightcrawler was probably the highlight of the movie for me, his scenes and presence were awesome.

I also thought he played a very important roll as the first "good guy" mutant that looks like a monster. Let's face it, Rogue and Jean Grey aren't terribly frightening to look at, but Nightcrawler on the other hand, even the mutant kids are afraid of him.

I just loved the scene when magneto drew the iron from the guards body!

That was totally awesome.

Plus I heard mention that Jason (stryker's son possibly Mastermind) died at then end of the movie. They Didn't show him dying did they. they just went to a new scene after Nightcrawler saved P.X.

Also how about a X3 love scene between N.C. and Storm!

Oh, and the kid with the forked tongue, what is abilities, and what is his name?
