X3

[Grazzt]

What new characters do you think they will (or should) put in X3? I'll say Sunfire and Colossus to start off.

[Rongi]

:|

[Grazzt]

I take it by the sad face that you mean Cable? :/

[AChimp]

Isn't Collossus in X2?

[Grazzt]

I'm pretty sure that he isn't, but if I'm wrong you may all beat me up digitally.

[El Blanco]

He gets a cameo. Here comes the beating.

[Grazzt]

*removes shirt* Bring it on, bitches!

[Protoclown]

Yes, Colossus is in X2 in a brief cameo role ala Iceman in the first X-Men. So if they follow the Iceman trend, they'll probably give him a bigger part in the third movie. There is a shot of Colossus going into metal form in one of the trailers.

Beast is also supposed to have a small cameo in X2, but before the blue fur. He was always one of my favorites, but I like him better with the fur, so perhaps we'll be lucky enough to see him that way in the third movie.

Word around the campfire is that one of the X-Men is going to die in the third movie. I know who it is, but I won't spoil it for you others.

Everyone really wants to see Gambit (not one of my favorites, though he was when I was younger), so maybe he'll be in the third.

[Ninjavenom]

Beast was always one of my favorites too, and i like the chick that's playing Jean. I'm just worried that Nightcrawler's smoke effects will be too fancy, too cgi looking.

[Zomboid]

If we're talking villains done right, I wanna see apocalypse, mr sinister, and proteus.

As for actual X-Men or X characters, I wanna see morph, angel, and forge.

[Grazzt]

I'd like to see Madripoor somehow make it's way into the movies.

Gambit - Me >: --- :lol :lol :lol :lol
Jubilee - Faruzia Balk ---Maybe...
Colossus - Roland Kickinger ---DOLPH!
Juggernaut - Big Show, or Michael Clark Duncan ---juggernaut is basically the size of the hulk so would need CGI, not a wrestler or a black man to play him.
Blob - Ethan Suplee ---Who?
Havok - James Marsters ---He'd need to buff up, but otherwise, good choice.

[James]

Just you wait and see. >:

I have some old X-Men cards, that are of paintings of the characters. You probably remember them. Anyway, the cards for Jubilee and Shadowcat look almost exactly like Faruzia and Shannen Doherty, respectively.

Dolph Lundgren is washed up, and was never really worth anyone's time of day to begin with. At least the guy from Son of the Beach has the look and accent. If you can think of anyone else better suited, say so. But don't insult the X-Men movies with Dolph.

I think I could forgive the movies if they shrink Juggernaut down to giant size, but not ridiculously large like he is in the comics. And for that, I think Big Show or MCD would be good (considering they don't beat him, unmask him, etc).

Ethan plays Willam Black in Mallrats and in Chasing Amy. He was also in Evolution, and in American History X. He's a massive tub. Maybe some camera tricks could be used to make him look taller though.

As for Marsters, I always get his name confused for Marsden. So I figure why not have him play Cyclops' brother? Seems only fair.

[Protoclown]

Dolph Lundgren is washed up, and was never really worth anyone's time of day to begin with.

BITE THY TONGUE, HEATHEN!!! >:

[James]

Well, why don't we just say Jean-Claude, then? Huh?

Seriously, Dolph's a hack whose career is a joke, filled with B-grade action films.

[Zbu Manowar]

Thunderbird. What the hell, they're already fucking with continuity. ;) And what about the whole of the X-Terminators like Artie and Leech? And Cannonball?

[Zomboid]

No, I'd rather they not have a character than have one shrank down about half way. No wrestlers and no black men for juggernaut, ever!

As for the blob guy, I know who he is...He's a really big guy, but the blob is also bigger than any normal human could ever be, so there'd have to be some good camera tricks.

[Zbu Manowar]

They'll have to be some good Camera Tricks. Personally, I wouldn't mind seeing the X-Men face off against Freedom Force. That way they can include Sauron into the mix and that would be amazing.

[Protoclown]

Seriously, Dolph's a hack whose career is a joke, filled with B-grade action films.

NO SHIT! Why else do you think I like him so much?? His movies are hilarious!

And Zbu...yes, they "ruined" the continuity. Get over it, man! The movies obviously have their OWN continuity. You can't make a movie and follow 40 years of comic book continuity without confusing the shit out of everybody. Besides, the comics contradicted themselves so many times throughout the years anyway, or have you forgotten? Who cares if Deathstrike is younger than she's supposed to be? And who says the Reavers even EXIST in the movie continuity? Just try to enjoy the movie for what it is, man. You can't compare it to the comic as far as every little detail is concerned or else you'll NEVER enjoy it.

[James]

But.. I mean, I can understand, being a huge Bruce Campbell fan. But then again, Bruce has established himself as being a real actor. I just don't see Dolph seriously fitting into the X-Men world.

[AChimp]

They should give Hulk Hogan a role in the next movie. Any role. :)

[pjalne]

Since Jubilee looks like she's seven or eight years old in X2, I can't see how she can have a big part in X3. Beast would be cool, though. I like what they've done to the characters this far, they've managed to keep a lot from the comics and still make them good movie characters, which often is the problem in super hero movies. It'd be cool to see what they do with Beast.

And Phoenix will of course be in it.

[mburbank]

I have been asked to play Batrok the Leaper in the next X-movie, who will be brought into the X-continuity.

Here's the odd thing. I am in early contract negotiations and haven't seen any pages, but have been asked to gain as much weight as possible, preferably 'loose flab' and at our next meeting they ask that I give them the 'worst faux french accent you can muster'.

[Protoclown]

Why don't you just wear a dress and talk about Dick Cheney?

GUARANTEED to get you any part in any movie. EVER. ;)

[ShanghaiOrange]

Gambit

Angel and Beast to complete the original line-up. :(

They need to do Sentinels too, dammit. :( And Apocalypse. :(

[AChimp]

They need a Superman cross-over.

[Grazzt]

Alpha Flight. :love

[theapportioner]

Captain Britain :love

[theapportioner]

If they do the Dark Phoenix thing, I'm guessing Shadowcat and maybe Colossus would get more story. They already have cameos, and more Shadowcat is definitely cool, though it might seem like a repeat of what they did with Rogue in X1.

[theapportioner]

I'm predicting the following new characters will get major airtime in X3:

White Queen
"Phoenix"
the Sentinels (hopefully they won't look goofy like in the comix)
Angel
Captain Britain (kidding!)

And the following cameo characters in X2 getting more air:

Shadowcat
Beast
Gambit

And cameos in X3:

Sinister
Apocalypse
Nate Summers

[theapportioner]

http://www.imdb.com/Credits?0290334

According to IMDB Sebastian Shaw (Hellfire Club) and Gambit have cameos, though not sure where... maybe in deleted scenes?

[Protoclown]

If they were in there, I sure as hell never saw them.

[James]

They were cut. The cameos were filmed, but they were cut from the final release.

[The_Rorschach]

Fuck X-Men. The Dark Phoenix Saga was suck originally. Go with the New Mutants. I mean fuck, that was the most kick ass series Marvel ever put out.

Boom Boom
Sunfire
Cannonball
WARLOCK!!!
Wolfsbane
Karma
Mirage
Magma
And Magik -Illiana Rasputin, who was cool as fuck for awhile.

[FS]

WHAT. The New Mutants sucked. :(

Well, in my opinion anyway.

I'm pretty sure they won't try to touch the world of Lilandra and the Shi'Ar (too damn complicated), but I fear a Dark Phoenix storyline would be a bit stale... they'd spend the whole movie fighting Jean. Snore?

[theapportioner]

The New Mutants would be good dinner for the Phoenix...

[Protoclown]

Rorshach, I don't know what drugs you're on, but the New Mutants were a steaming pile of rancid shit. If you want a team of total suck, that's pretty much the epitome of it right there. They were even worse when they became X-Force.

[FS]

It's been some time since I picked up a comic... is Cannonball still calling everyone, including people that are trying to kill him, "sir" and "ma'am"?

[Grazzt]

He still has a silly Southern accent. But yes, New Mutants/X-Force/Cable's Boyfriends was the worst thing ever.

[The_Rorschach]

Damn you all. . .I still like the New Mutants. You all just don't know about the quality of 80's cheese.

Actually, there is this fighting game that came out for X-Men recently on PS2, and they have Forge, Dark Phoenix, Toad and a shitload of other characters. I'm guessing that the movie is going to loosely follow the video game storyline rather than the comic, which means the main enemy will be the sentinels rather than the Hellfire Club.

[Grazzt]

I still think they should make an Avengers movie.

[CastroMotorOil]

Rorschach that game came out for gamecube as well, the sentinals do look pretty good in it. For those who do not know they made the sentinals MUCH smaller, about the size of juggernaut. If they did that for X3 it would be ok, although i would prefer the huge ones.

[Queen Tonya]

Avengers? Has anyone even optioned that yet? New Lines bringing out Iron Man, Dimensions working on Ghost Rider, and Fox has both The Fantastic Four and Silver Surfer on the way. I'd love to see Bryan Singer get ahold of a good Avengers treatment, but word is he's worried about being stuck in the action blockbuster genre too much.

My only requirement for X3 is that they showcase Beast. Not only is he the dreamiest of the Xmen, Xavier can't be the only well-adjusted mutant onscreen for the 3rd consecutive time! >:

[Rongi]

You see, bumping an 8 day old thread is a no no.

[Jebus]

It was still on the first page douche, it's perfectly fine if she still wants to talk about x-men >:

[Zomboid]

You know, I'm guessing this will sound like blasphemy, but they could have beast BEFORE he got the fur. I doubt they'd do that, but they could and it would make it easier to get him in there.

I WANNA SEE ANGEL, DAMNIT! They should have all the original x-men before the movies are done.

[FS]

Well, I suppose they can't keep throwing in new blue guys.

[Protoclown]

The problem is that Beast without the fur sucks. :(

[Rongi]

I never saw beast in X2. I heard he was in it though :/

[James]

Dark Horizons

X3: In the WWE's most recent "Edgeuction" column, wrestler Edge expressed interested in playing the Longshot character. Meanwhile Kelly Hu confirmed to The Calgary Sun that "My contract was for two films, but we'll have to wait and see what happens when people actually sit down to write the next one".

[FS]

I never saw beast in X2. I heard he was in it though :/

There's a brief shot of a TV on which Henry McCoy, still "human", is commenting on mutant registration or something.

[Zomboid]

First of all, WRESTLERS SHOULDN'T BE ACTING! Second, longshot sucks. He's fucking boring and if they're gonna bring in a new character it would be easy to think up like 10 off hand that would be better.

[Protoclown]

Despite that, Longshot is FAR cooler and more interesting than Cable ever was.

[Grazzt]

Even with his gay mullet, he's still cooler than Cable.

[Zomboid]

Yall is just a buncha hatas >:

Damnit, cable kicks ass. Anyone associated with sinister, apocalypse and time travel is a lot cooler than some dork from mojoworld.

[AChimp]

Adding time travel would just gay it up. >:

[Protoclown]

Anyone associate with Rob Liefeld is lamer than the lamest dork from Mojoworld, and Cable fits the bill.

[James]

Mojo should be in X3, voiced by Gilbert Gottfried. :(
