Back from X3. Very awesome. I'm oh so tempted to try and make the Phoenix costume...or just dye my hair the same colour, because OMG it was so pretty.

I love how the movie really couldn't care less about comic canon. When the first one came out, I didn't like it so much, but it's definitely grown on me and I've realized that trying to deal with comic canon baggage would just be too much trouble.

So it was an awesome night. I also made my favourite of my steak concoctions, steak and cheese sandwiches on buns that were grilled with garlic butter (that also had chives and oregano in it). Very yummy.

Only downside really would be the whole raining all day so we couldn't play tennis and got nice and wet on the walk over to the Vogue.

Given the Dark Phoenix plotlines in the comic went on for 3 or so years worth of issues, it's best when caution is thrown to the wind when adapting it :)
I liked how Psylocke was there, even if just in the lil' Bad Girl squad of her, Callisto and Arclight [Arclight? wow, that's obscure but cool :)], and even though she became Phoenix-Fodder.

My favorite geeky parts were Multiple Man in general, and Callisto and Storm's showdown in the big Phoenix tussle.

Yeah, I didn't recognize most of the minor villian characters XD

I wish Gambit had made it in somewhere ;_;

You mean that WAS Psylocke? I guess without the psi-blade i didn't realize that. Thanks Andre.

BTW...this is Ryan fr/ Anime Club. How ya doin?

Good ^_^ Psylocke was the asian girl with the purple hair streak. They must of chosen to use the powers she had for a breif period in the 90's, when she gained Ninja Shadow powers, able to hide/travel in shadows. Then at some point she switched powers with Jean Grey, and Jean had em, then she didn't, and then it just got confusing :)

I imagine they can always bring her back in a different form for future movies though.

I also enjoyed Moira MacTaggert's big role, and I assume she'll show up in X-men 4 if there's one :)

One of my MSN guys told me some Fox newsgroup said there was a 4th one coming...but I'm not too sure about any source.

Kind of... officially, there is a Wolverine Movie being done, with Hugh Jackman producing it. No idea who outside of Hugh'll be in it. So if there's another X-men movie, it'd be X-men 5 in a way :)

With that extra scene they snuck in at the end, it'd be evil not to do another one.
Supposedly, they're planning a New Mutants movie too [ie- a movie about the students]
