^^The end of the 'third summers brother' dangling plot was recently ended in a mini-series...in perhaps the worst (in every sense imaginable) resolution of a dangling plot imaginable. Not to mention they killed off Banshee for this POS. I would rather it had been Gambit as crap as that would have been.

I really should appologize for that...as the other person trying to keep the Firefly thread alive you obviously have mostly good taste.

What do you make of this, Hugh Jackman reiterating that this will be the last X-men film. I'm pretty sure I read an interview with Kelsey Grammar (sp?) that he signed on to do another one. Did he just mean he won't be in another one (which would suck) or is he just blowing smoke?

they need to get joe pesci to be the next wolverine

3/19/2006 11:32:12 PM

you folks do realize that the x franchise has and can exist without wolverine right

i'd rather have 3 more X movies sans logan than not have any more

3/19/2006 11:57:06 PM

Yeah I do, its a big universe with a lot of interesting characters, I'd be fine with that. But the quote said:

Quote :

"He reiterated that this is absolutely the last X-Men film. I'd imagine he did not count Wolverine and Magneto spinoffs in this, but he didn't mention them either."

So I was just wondering what was meant by this... hoping that he meant he was out but the movies would continue.

3/20/2006 12:46:16 PM

You cant have an xmen movie without wolverine.

You loose a large part of the draw to the movie and its FREAKING WOLVERINE!

They would make more money with an wolverine spin off I would think.

And then maybe after the sucess of the film they might do another x-men movie to rake in the last amount of money avaliable out there.

I wish Nightcrawler would be returning for this movie

he's my favorite

can we get some Wolverine vs Cyber in this movie? PLEASE!!

3/21/2006 7:00:38 PM

I never really liked Wolverine.

3/21/2006 9:19:51 PM

comic book wolverine > movie wolverine

3/21/2006 10:55:38 PM

this movie and spiderman 3 are on my watch list

3/22/2006 8:35:08 AM

Pretty much so far, all the comic book characters are > Movie characters, but damn if the movies aren't still great.

So Rogue going to zap that lady for some powers anytime soon? I wanna see her fly and throw cars like it ain't shit.

3/22/2006 10:52:31 AM

pretty big to say the least

3/22/2006 11:25:42 AM

i think the girl they chose as rogue is wrong for the part (after she takes Ms. Marvel's powers)

3/22/2006 12:10:35 PM

i'm thinking that maybe her personality will change a little bit if and when she takes on ms. marvel's powers

3/22/2006 12:11:57 PM

Will have to change. The girl playing young rogue was interesting and fit in a unusual sense...but if and when she gets those powers, she has too change...a lil more dominating, less shit taking...I just wanna see persons face when she picks up a hummer one handed and smashes em wit it...

Then she can fall in love with Teh Cajun...(ok thats a stretch, but dammit I want Gambit in an Xman movie)

3/22/2006 1:39:11 PM

as anti-gambit as i have been

if thats what it takes to get a second trilogy

so be it

3/22/2006 1:49:16 PM

I wouldn't mind seeing The Cajun in an X-Men movie. Question is, who would play him? I don't think with Anna Paquin playing Rogue, there would be anyone good enough to play him. There were rumors once that JC Chavez was looking to play the Cajun but I'd hate to picture an ex-Nysncer as the Cajun. I want to see a rough looking but still charming guy play Gambit.

Anyways, the only thing I'm looking forward to in this movie is the Dark Phoenix. From what I've seen of spoilers and leaked footage, Famke does the part justice. Still, I can understand why they chose to have the Phoenix part as an evolved form of Jean rather than a separate entity. People don't read the comics and it would be entirely confusing to bring in the Shi'ar and the other plot points of the Phoenix Saga and the Dark Phoenix Saga.

As long as I see the Phoenix Raptor I'm happy.

3/22/2006 2:58:11 PM

to be honest

i've read the comics since i was a little kid

and probably know more than half the posters in this thread

and i don't completely get the fucking Phoenix story

3/22/2006 3:09:11 PM

^^val kilmer could totoally pull gambit off

3/22/2006 3:10:16 PM

a minimum of 8 years ago

it is gonna have to be someone relatively young because of the casting of anna paquin as rogue

3/22/2006 3:51:48 PM

I think that guy from Ocean's 12 (the guy who played Nightfox or whatever his name was. He was also the bad guy in Derailed) might be able to pull off a good Gambit if he bulked up a little.

3/22/2006 4:14:11 PM

vincent cassel is a perfect choice, aside from being 40



the only reason you think he needs to bulk up is because of shits like rob liefeld who couldn't draw a fierce normal sized man if they wanted

cyclops had no reason to look like ronnie coleman, and yet there were times in teh mid 90s that he looked like he could bench 385 12 times

and if he doesn't play gambit
he should play the joker based on this pic:

3/22/2006 4:23:16 PM

is that the nightfox from ocean's 12?

3/22/2006 4:40:49 PM

yes

3/22/2006 4:46:06 PM

i think a good choice would be that guy in oceans 12, the night wolf or fox or something like that

3/22/2006 5:13:26 PM

LOL...its funny cause its true, I doubt even Claremont understands it anymore.

ditto

Quote :

In my dream cast from a million years ago he was Havok, in my dream cast for live action GI Joe he'd be duke.

Page one said Josh Holloway would be a good Gambit...I can see that or Vincent Cassel.

3/22/2006 5:54:01 PM

Since watching Derailed I would have to agree he would make a damn fine gambit

3/22/2006 6:02:43 PM

SOMEONE SHOULD MAKE A THREAD WHERE WE CAN LIST OUR DREAM CASTS FROM WHEN WE WERE KIDS

IT'LL BE SO FUN

ps

because of scott summers age, alex summers would have to be someone younger, again...
