So the movie finally has a subtitle, which is kinda meh at most, and a whole new load of pictures came to my attention today, which i though i'd share.

There's alot of things that i'm really not happy with i have to say. Alot it looks just, well, i certainly would have thought they'd done them differently. Like, Juggernaut for example.
Anyway, take a look.

Colossus. He definately looked better in X2.


Beast is looking awesome.


Don't even get me started on Storms hair.

Colossus and Rogue. Notice, maybe it's just the angle and shot, but it certainly looks like Rogues head is on Colossus' shoulder.


OMGS TEH FAMKE!


Yeah, that's Vinnie Jones as Juggernaut. Naff, he's not even close to massive enough. I'm sure he looks better with the helmet on though. That's also the Morlocks and Collisto.

I'm pretty sure that's Psylocke on the right. Yay yay yay! *giggles* Don't ask about the one that looks like Michael Jackson.

Dark. Pheonix.


Glad to see Magneto is looking a little more magestic.

More to come, they should start pouring in now.
I have more but they're all broken links.

If anyone else has any feel free to post them up.

Collosus looks meh...but I supose it's the best they could do without having him, totally CGI...although, he will probably look alot better during the action sequences.
BurnSide
Feb 10 2006, 08:32 PM
His metal looked freaking awesome in the last movie, just that part with him is one of my favourite bits. However apparently the reason it only happened for that one small part was because the CG cost literally millions to make that short scene.
So i guess they opted for this route to make it cheaper.

Thanks for posting these!! I can't wait til this movie comes out
I agree about Storm's hair, what's up with that?
And why am I not remember Colossus from the second movie.
I wonder if Pyro and Iceman will be in this one...hmm....
And Wolverine getting some actions! Kickbutt!

Colossus was only briefly in the second movie during the break-in at the school. One of the intruders shoots him and his body turns metal, then he picks up one of the unconcious kids. He smashes the wall to open the secret exit, then offers to help Wolverine who tells Colossus to help the kids instead.
I don't know about Iceman, but 'm fairly certain Pyro is a big character in it, one of Magnetos henchmen.

The company making the movies is capitalist. Thus they will continue make movies so long as they make a profit. And likely once the movies begin to sink we likely have made for tv movies etc
BurnSide
Feb 10 2006, 10:28 PM
I'm actually a little suprised there's no TV show yet. I suppose they're waiting until, as you said, the movies stop drawing such masive attention.

They did make a series called Mutant X, which was sooooooo ripping X-men off..... and sooooo bad

hahaha yeah i remember that actually, i mean honestly, just look at the title, how is that NOT a rip of X-Men?

I never watched it, and now i'm happy about that.

Feb 11 2006, 02:14 AM
I never didn't watch that much either to be fair, I saw bits here and there while channel surfing. Just the acting and plot were just to bad to say hooked.

Well, I don't think there would be too many other people of that size or even bigger to take the role.

I loved X2, but so many of the pis I have seen surface on line look like a very slap-dash, thrown together, crappy job. And ALL the pics I have seen with Juggs (especially with his neo-punk Mad Max posse of young models) are horrid.

It looks like Fox is just rushing to get this thing released before the proper care is taken.
The worst thing I have heard from semi-reliable sources about this (aside from both Cyclops AND Prof X getting killed off by Jean/Phoenix) is that Wolverine is becoming Storm's boy-toy for the film. After the fuss Halle pitched about her character, I can totally believe they will cast her as the new leader and have her lead Logan around by his jewels.
I really enjoyed the teaser trailer, but all the plot-points sound atrocious.

They were mutants who chose to live underground bc their mutations made them unable to pass as humans. Callisto was their leader when they were first introduced. They were usually pretty gruesome looking, not really so much like the kids in the pics. They look more like they are at a Rave.
BurnSide
Feb 13 2006, 06:58 AM
Yeah i know, just neo goth punks looking for fights, hardly what the Morlocks are supposed to look like.
I hear watch you're saying too, i've also heard alot of deaths occur in this one and actually pretty much the survivors of the main characters are who you see in the posters i posted. Angel, Jean, Logan, Storm, Beast and Rogue.
Pretty freaking silly. I guess we'll see. But they're not even bothing to stick with the story now, just taking characters and events and throwing them in a meat ginder to see what they come up with.

dont like colossus' new look
dont like the whole morlock idea...but i believe it becuase doesnt storm end up beating calisto and becomes the new leader of them??
and as much as i like psylock(sp?) i hope thats not her....i picture her so much more sexy and uh...volumptius maybe is the word...i dunno but they f'd up on rouge too, so who knows
storm and wolverine....if my memory is correct, i think storm and him did have a thing at one point didnt they..??
juggernaut.....hes allright....hate the helmet though, they could have tried to make it a lil more closer to the comic version i think...ummm what else
oh yea, piro and iceman are both in this movie, in the trailer i seen in the theaters, it shows them about to fight it out
beast does look awesome, i think they did good..
and this cant possibly be the last x film, as some have said, there hasnt been a gambit as of yet....and they would not exclude gambit in the last film...they arent stupid, they know there are fans willing to pay to just see him....dont forget, rogue has to be a lil bit older too, for gambit to be in the picture...

Kelsey Grammar as Beast, funnily enough the guy I always said should play him, perfect.
Still think Wolverine is too tall though

Chud.com has posted parts of an interesting interview w/ director Ratner. Apparently this
is indeed the last of the Xmen films (at least as far as Fox is concerned w/ right now) and that some of the leaked photos are not to be taken seriously.
I do wonder which he is referring to.
Anyway, the article is pretty depressing:

Your task if you choose to accept it is to make an X-men movie with Gambit.
Maybe that Jake dude from Brokeback couldplay him or BurnSide could.
He is my favourite X-man i miss the cartoon. Hey will they do the whole story line of Mystic (cant speil) being Rouges (Stil cants speil) ma?

If you want you can suggest someone else to play Gambit maybe i should start a thread on it.... Oooh oooh for the next UM awards there should be section on which one of us is most likely to play gambit in the next movie.

That sounds like a good idea to me jesspy! but i'd say if we wanted someone outside the forum to play gambit, the next best thing would be ryan reynolds. if he could pull off the accent...without sounding like an idiot...I'd show a comparison picture between ryan and gambit, but i don't want to get the lady folk all worked up. haha just a joke there folks!

i vote chuck norris for gambit, not because of a resemblance, i just think it would be funny. and sad. especially if he still rocks the mullet.
i will admit i thought kelsey grammer was a bad choice for beast, but im really changing my mind on that.

Heh, was about to post all these points and noticed you already beat me to it
Although I think Beast looks ridiculous with a perm and Jackman, along with most of the other cast (except Famke, that ten year old boy that plays Storm and the whiny princess that thinks she's Rogue), is perfect for his role.
The picture with the three bad girl wannabe's...am I the only one that almost laughed out loud when I saw these three? I mean, c'mon, you can't get any more cliche than that! And whats with the hip curl? The snarling? The purple streaks? *squeels*
"Yeah, look at us...we're totally badass and live in the sewers and fight for our people and wear raggity leather clothes and stuff...but still have time to go to the hairdresser to get moussed up and have trendy purple streaks with cute little knots put in."
These pictures remind me of the Generation X flop back in the late ninties. Same tackiness.
Hisssssss.
Again, I gotta say Famke is a horrific choice for Jean. Perhaps a decade ago she would have been right, but now? Ugh. She just doesn't fit the role.
And Berry? Don't get me started. How'd this try-hard get her prissy little arse back into this role anyway? I thought the director told her to sod off after she felt she deserved to be paid more than the rest of the cast?
<exiting rabid fanboi mode>
But yeah, looking forward to it.
Edit: oh yeah, Angel looks awesome
