UPDATED! Iceman and Kitty! X3 pics hit, phase out and now phase back in!!!
Okay, the link is back... Sure a whole lotta fuss for a few drab pics... Check 'em out:
CLICK IT HERE ONCE MORE!!!
Sorry, squirts. It seems that HNR has taken down the pics already. I was hoping for them to hold out for at least the evening... Sorry about that... I'll keep my eye out and will up date this story if they pop back up in the next day or so!
Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with some sneaky spy shots from the set of X3 over at HollywoodNorthReport.com. It's nothing major, but it is Bobby Drake and Kitty Pryde. Still can't get a feeling of the flick... I mean, I can't tell if the pics at HNR are in costume or out. It looks like they're acting, so I'd imagine in... God, I want this movie to not suck...
THE MUTIES ARE HERE! CALL TRASK! SEND OUT THE SENTINELS!

Good stuff until the last 30 minutes, but then dreary, cliche-ridden action-movie-by-numbers fare.
Also, did anyone notice that X2 borrowed heavily from Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan? Literary quotations, death of a major character who will be resurrected, that character giving a calm mission statement voiceover into the end credits, Horner-esque music? -
it looks like they're standing around waiting to be picked up by their mothers at the end of the days shooting. This photo is fucking pointless.

Death of a major character who sacrifices themself to save everyone else from an impending shockwave...

These are not X-3 pictures. These are pictures of two actors standing around waiting for a bus. What a cocktease. This site needs to seriously contemplate a name change to Ain't It Boring News.

Hey, I have a better picture. I took a picture of my shoe the other day, just because I was messing around with my new camera. I'll post that, it should fit right in.
-
hmmmm. Alright. Also, there is some other X-3 news that have popped up lately. Shoreh Aghadashloo is playing some mutant woman who has a force field thing going on? I don't know...but why hasn't that been said? It sounds like more "classicly bad" X-3 news that we all love to comment on.

but thats a pretty pointless picture.

"He's got a forehead like a drive -in movie theater, but he's a good shit, we don't bust his chops too much." for some reason I was reminded of that quote from There's Something About Mary ... wonder why.

I just wasted 5 seconds of my life clicking on that worthless photo. What's next, an all black photo that "appears to be the entire cast of X3 AND X4 standing around in a black out." That would be just as useful.

Yeah, whenever any genre film or tv show kills off a major character it's always in an easily avoidable situation that is far less dangerous than other shit they went through and survived. I believe the official term is 'The Star Trek Edict of Lazy Ass Writing'.

But if anyone bothered to say the shit let me know. X-3 will more than likely be a disappointment of epic proportions.
-
He wound up a disembodied arm in Jurrassic Park, got whacked by Joe Pesci and Pam Grier in Goodfellas and Jackie Brown respectively, shot himself in 187 and suffered the most comedic death by shark ever filmed in Deep Blue Sea. Then again he met an honorable death in Revenge of the Sith, actually survived Pulp Fiction and only got arrested in Unbreakable. I guess when you star in every movie ever made, you run the gamit.
-
Iceman has a beer and cheats on his... oh, the hell with it.
-
If anyone thinks that the scene in ROTS where Palpatine attacks Mace and Anakin comes in is good then they need brain surgery. It was a crucial part of the movie, of the saga, and it sucked big time, with poor dialogue and bad delivery 'no no you shall die!!', and Samuel L went out like a punk, screaming his punk head off when Anakin cut off his hand. He's meant to be like the biggest badass in the galaxy but cries like a baby, and how Palpatine transforms is lame beyond lameness. And Palpatine's dialogue to Anakin after Mace goes out is also a piece of shit. You all know.
-
Silly websites.
-
If the story/correction is true, and Joss created Dr. Kavita Rao is in this flick....well.... bwwwaahahahhahha....
AND THEY'RE LETTING IT WRITE???? -
And he pretty much had Palpatine on the ropes before Anakin fucked him over. Maybe they could have punched up the dialogue and extended the duel a bit but what do you want, they had like a dozen duels to get done in that film. Anyway, there's no completly tangible proof that Mace even died. So he got his hand cut off and took a fall. I think there's a precedent that says he might have made it.
-
Actually, I always assumed from the way that scene was presented that Jean intentionally drowned herself. She sensed she was going to mutate into something more powerful, dangerous, and uncontrollable (hinted at earlier), and would put anyone she cared for (ie: in the X-jet) at risk. I imagine she had a strong degree of foreboding to be willing to kill herself rather than ask the Prof for help. T'would explain why she mentally locked the jet's hatch (so no one could go out to help or rescue her), and after she lifted the ship out of harm's way, let the flood take her.
-
...they were incredibly un-remarkable.
They looked as if they were on lunch break.

So... instead of drowning, she freezes? Brilliant solution.

Idiot fanboy punks: Watch the goddamn movie if you're going to try and hack on it. Nightcrawler TRIES to teleport out and save Jean, but she doesn't let him. Hmmm, I wonder what that means, you mental invalids? It means she's blocking his power. I wonder if maybe, just maybe, she did that to everyone on the X Jet? She controlled Prof X enough to speak through him while levitating a plane AND holding back the dammed force on an entire lake. You people are remarkably stupid...

I'm sorry but i thought I knew what Fanboy meant until I read a couple of these posts. Unless of course, the talkbackers just didn't know what fanboy meant. This is my definition of Fanboy, correct me if I'm wrong.
FANBOY= A guy (rarely girl) who likes a franchise(s) so much that he will forgive it of any sin and will like anything from it no matter what. i.e. Anyone who thought Revenge of the Sith was awesome and perfect.
Also, Prof. X did not frigging stop TIME! God, do you people even Watch these movies? -
Bob D. doesn't know how much power he has at this point in the film and even if he did, he can't freeze all of creation! He could have made an ice wall but ice walls fall down when hit by vastly powerful flood waters. Jean not only would have still drowned, she would have been hit by ice chunks.

Sorry but I'm sick of the moviemakers ignoring those two characters, so I'm not about to like seeing them killed off outright, particularly by Phoenix.

If this is true, it's actually good news. If they're worried about overloading the cast, I'd actually ditch Gambit for Madrox, and I'm a big fan of the Cajun.
If you think his power is crapola, just sift through your X-Factor collection for the scene where Madrox has his hand in some villain's mouth (some monster mutie looking thing), slaps his arm and pops a duplicate inside the goddamn creature- messy, but cool use of the power. -
I think it was the Fallen Angels mini-series where a couple of his clones were on their own for a while and began to develop distinct personalities. So much that they did not want to rejoin with Madrox and lose their autonomy.

Uhm... fangirls aren't as rare as fanboys think they are. Fanboys are just overly wrapped up in their fanboyishness to see what's going on around them. At least that's what I've noticed, along with a somewhat 'tude given off by the guys, as if I don't know what I'm up to. If I have questions, I ask. If I don't ask, don't assume I don't know already. Down boy. Sit. Stay. Whiners shouldn't carry the title of Fanboys (and girls). That's like calling a tangerine an orange or a nectarine a peach.
I loved X1 & 2 and will love 3, I'm sure. I look forward to seeing AA & KP finally putting in some time. It should be a good run for Ol' One-Eye, too. If I had a wish list for what I'd like to see incorporated into the films, I would like Wolvie to be a bit more cantankerous (not grumpy enough - but I'm not complaining about Mr. Jackman...he can stand there and look pissed and I'm happy) and darlin' Rogue needs to have a thicker drawl. Ms. P could stand to sound a bit more southern, considering where she was raised. Love her as my fave X-Chic, but drawl it out a bit more, darlin'. Yeah, 1 & 2 could have been more, better, different, but they weren't. If you guys wanna do it your way, then get off your backside and do it. Everyone's a critic. -
...performingmonkey is spot-on in his assessment of what should have been the most dramatically moving sequence in the Star Wars prequel trilogy (i.e. it wasn't). TubgirlTonay is still a kool-aid drinking, sneaker wearing, "Serenity, take me away!" Whedon freak (Tonay: The guy's an o.k. writer. Calm down.). And X3, if everything we've heard about it so far is true, has the potential to vex me greatly. WHoever alluded to the virtual neglect of Cyclops' character in the last two films was on to something and the truly lazy solution would be to write him out of the series as a casualty. There are just too many characters being shoehorned into this thing (there were too many in the last one, but they still made it work... barely) for it to be anything but a streaming series of CGI-heavy action sequences with some very dramatic music to clue the audience in to just who we should be caring about. And the whole Wolverine/Storm romance was just ill conceived. I mean, I understand the urge to hush Berry's whining by shoving a dick in her mouth, but why not hire some hunky native American actor to play Forge since we're already adding forty-nine new cast members to the ensemble? Oh... and way to shaft Nightcrawler. He was only the most compelling character in the last movie. Best not have him around, mucking things up for the a-listers this time out. I'm ready to be pleasantly surprised, but I'm not counting on it.

I finally got around to reading the first trade.Mind you the last time I read a X-Men comic was back in the Claremont/Bryne days.While I was reading it I kept thinking I've seen this all before.Yep Whedon just took the best parts from classic X-men stories and threw in a little Buffy dialogue.Nothing new to people who've read it years ago.

The characters are poorly developed and poorly portrayed, the plots are clunky and unnuanced (even for a comic book movie) and the effects are second-rate. The peril in the My Little Pony movie was more convincing and the effects in the original Ghoulies blow both xmen flicks off the screen.

Even comic-book Iceman would have a hard time doing that, let alone the movie kid. Fucknuts.
-
If you all want to argue that Jean was holding back everyone's powers, holding back a flood of water and levitating the plane at the same time, couldn't she have just saved her energy and levitated the plane WHILE IN IT? Jeez! They also had a few others in the plane that might have helped, Storm froze the inside of Cerebro 2 pretty damn fast, Cyclops could use his eyebeams at full blast, along with Prof X, whose SUPPOSED to be a pretty darned good telekinetic himself, I still can see no good reason that Jean had to leave the plane.
-
But perhaps it could have been better if the story was, you know, different from X1? Oh, and I'd like to see the X-Men in an X-Men flick. Those people only resemble the characters I've read. But let's get back to how Doom wasn't Doom.

by the true priapic
...not a great answer but alluded to in X2.Personally it doesn't look like it'd matter what director they employ,it still sounds dumb as a story.Can I just add how terribly disappointing it is that Jaime Pressly isnt in this....
-
I can assure you that there is a reason that Jean left the plane in order to "rescue" her partners, and if you've read the comics you'd know what it is (I am not knocking anyone who hasn't read them). I know it seems strange that that she left the plane and intentionally put herself in mortal peril when she didn't have to, but then it seems to me that the X-Men also thought it was a bit strange.
I don't want to give too much away, because if you haven't read the comics this story line is derived from then 1) You've missed some of the issues that made the X-Men the hot property it is today and 2)You'll very much enjoy the way this story live plays out.
****Spoiler alert***
Jean is being possessed by the "Phoenix Force" which gives her power enough to destroy a planet, and which also fucks with her mind and corrupts her. When Jean is lucid and in full control of her facilities, she knows how bad the whole situation can go, and knows there's only one way to stop it: her death. Those who care most about her don't want to let her die, so they try and stop her. Major badass battles and brilliant character development ensues...
*** End Spoilers***
I will say it again: there are very good reasons the end of X2 played out the way it did. Trust it. -
I'd be very surprised if they followed the actual Dark Phoenix storyline and included a vague, alien cosmic force instead of just saying that Jean's powers increased and she went a little nuts. They'd be mired in this whole other sci-fi story while trying to tell this mutant serum story or something. Or maybe they will get that confusing. I just don't think they're going to go with the actual Phoenix force.
-
man I wish they would go with Dark Pheonix, as they were obviously set up to do. but they wont and I will cry. of course, how will they explain away the giant shadow of the dark pheonix in the lake at the end of X2. by the way for those who havent seen it that isnt even close to a spoiler...ok yes it is I'll mark this post.
-
I am quite aware of the original story, and the original had Jean(Marvel Girl back then) sacrificing herself to save the others in a situation she had the best chance of surviving, which is why I hated the X2 version. It just wasn't a very well conceived hopeless situation. I think if they had stuck to the original somehow, with the danger being an exposure to radiation, it would have made more sense. I also don't think Jean actually died, her powers just evolved, which makes the point of the Phoenix symbolically moot.
-
In the first movie, radiation (from what I don't remember) spreads across Ellis Island, and Jean is shown reacting to it (like a jolt). It's very subtle but this is where Jean's Phoenix transformation begins. I think it's explained in the commentary. In the comics, Jean was exposed to radiation while piloting a space craft back to earth. She came out of that with new powers and calling herself Phoenix. So THIS incident in the comic relates to the Statue of Liberty incident in the first film. It's confusing because her sacrifice/death, rather than coming from the same incident where she becomes Phoenix (as in the comics), happens instead some time later in the 2nd film, but it's pretty pointless at that point... at least it seems so far. It seems to me, in the 2nd film's end, Jean is listening to someone in her head tell her to do what she does.
-
Sorry man, but Prof X has never been a telekinetic. He's a telepath. Thinking at the water wouldn't really have helped all that much...
-
Prof X is a telepath. The end and 57% of X-Deus sucked rotten eggs out of a fetal pigs ass.
That is all.
