X3 DVD - Not So Bad.

I finally got around to seeing X-men 3 this past weekend and I actually really enjoyed it. I'd heard so much fuss over it from customers and fans that I was expected the worst, but i totally dug it. Oh, I should probably say this might have some spoilers, just in case I'm not the last person to see it. The main complaints I'd heard were that it was 'all over the place' and didn't follow the continuity of the comic. But, of course they didn't follow the comic, because no one could make any sense of it if they'd tried. As for it being all over the place, well...it had some good action. Lots of characters and powers. It was a hint of the movie I'd really like to see. The 'Marvel' movie...a huge camped out story of world spanning conflict full of costumed heroes. And its kinda nice when they've apparently decided to make it the last sequel and they start killing people off left and right. I wasn't expecting Xavier to go at all, but whiny cyclops had it coming.

All in all, it kinda feels like someone skimmed the x-men archives and hashed a bunch of bits together, but its good fun.

And speaking of an allout marvel brawl, the Marvel Ultimate Alliance video game just came out for all sorts of systems. If you're playing it on xbox live, hit me up at "Mecha Nickzilla"
