Tell me which movie you like best and why.

I liked XM2 as the intro's of characters was out the way so the story was more actioned and I just loved the Wolvie bits like in the  Mansion when he takes out Strykers soldiers and of course when he fights Lady Deathstrike at the end! Hugh Jackman was very hot wearing his white vest and being all sweaty and grrr!

Oh no. X1- for the shirtlessness at the beginning. I mean, dude. He liked getting his ass kicked waaaaay too much. And the yellow spandex quip.

Saying  that, the fight scene in the mansion was also sex on [short] legs.

I liked the Wolvie bits from 1 & 2, like when you saw his face as he was driving away from Rogue and knew that he was berating himself for being a soft touch.

I also liked some of the other little bits from 2, like the "have you ever tried not being a mutant" line that Bobby's mother gives him.

And there were some good bits in 3, like the danger room scene, but in the end that film was too damn cluttered for me.

I always think that look was more 'you're not an asshole. Stop trying to be.'

Nah, for me it was "go for it, you damn bleeding heart"

I'd have to say X3, only because of the big fight scene.

The fight scenes didn't do much for me. I've alwas been more one for character development and interaction. X1 therefore.

Character development. I didn't consider that one, I guess I'm more action than development.

Oh god was XM3 too cluttered! I think that is what ruined it despite the good intentions (adding Angel AND Beast and quips like 'Oh my stars and Garters' as well as the fast ball)

Don't you think X2 had character development? I thought it was good for showing Wolvie's 'I'm a tough loner guy but damn I can't help being a big softee underneath!' side! And Pyro and Colossus were nice additions (even though Colossus only got a small part he looked fab!). I thought Rogue was too whiney in XM1 and too absent in XM3!

colossus was the only damn charactor they got perfect in the third moive, Beast lost his comideian role, storm did a heluva lot better but it was waaay to big a change, wolvie /= leader of anyone, and so on and so forth

two was by far my fave but the fight scene was great in three when it went to colossus you could here bones crushing Smile

I enjoyed parts of each of the movies.  The first one introduced the mutant race perfectly and Magneto actually had a Brotherhood of Evil Mutants.  Tyler Mane who played Sabretooth was awesome in that role.  I wish that he would have been in the other movies.  

The second one started the Iceman/Rogue relationship so that lost some serious points with me.  However the storyline was awesome and Nightcrawler's opening scene was beautiful cinematography.  

The third one had Jamie Madrox: The Multiple Man.  He's one of my favorite characters so seeing him portrayed PERFECTLY on screen was a big plus.  Oh and how can you go wrong with "Don't you know who I am?  I'm the Juggernaut bitch."  I think the geek moments in the third one was my favorite parts.  Like the fastball special and Beast saying "Oh my stars and garters."  Stuff like that I really enjoy being in a film.  

So of all of them I think X2 was my favorite overall, but I really enjoyed all of them as a whole with many small parts in each one.

Thats cool CR, I love the thought of you and Pup at the cinema with him bugging you non-stop with questions! hahaha...did you find his email btw?

As for XM3....I think it had an opportunity to be really great and they tried hard to put lots of cool stuff for fans (as SB pointed out) but it cost the film in terms of a smooth storyline that developed existing characters and felt unrushed.
