Seeing it tonight at midnight, hopefully it isn't a huge letdown.

If you go to it without the thought that it will suck because it won't be totally faithful to 40 years of comics, then it will probably be fun.

I'm going tomorrow night. I'm trying not to get my hopes too high, but I definitely think it's going to be better than the first one.

Gambit would probably pretty well suck in a movie anyway. Unless they got the guy from "Brotherhood of the Wolf" to play him.

Aye, I might go see it on Tuesday. I thought the first one was entertaining, it wasn't a waste of money or my time. I hope the same goes for X2. If it is at least comes to those standards, it is okay in my book.

His name is Samuel Le Bihan. Look him up on the Internet Movie Database. Based on his performance in that, I think he could do it.

But there was someone I thought of a while back who would make an absolute PERFECT Gambit and now I can't recall who. When I think of it I'll post it here.

I'd prefer to see them go with unknowns for a lot of these parts and cast them WELL, rather than just go on name recognition. Hugh Jackman wasn't that well known before X-Men, and look at how awesomely he portrayed Wolverine.

I wish they would get an unknown to play the Punisher.

I will be playing Gambit in the next film.


I don't pay much attention to reviews (unless I want to btch about how fucking wrong they are), but I've only see one negative review for the movie so far, and about 20 positive. So it should most definitely be good.

The only downside is that with so many characters, a handful of them end up underdeveloped and unused. But if you can look past that, this should be enjoyable.

Since I'm a cheap bastard, and I hate people, I'm going some time next week for a matinee on a weekday.

I was optimistic until I saw that Deathstrike is now an X-Men, having miraculously risen from the mass Reaver grave and now a bit younger and such.

Still, I'll see it. But I still can't get why they are really messing with the lineup with some sick pick n'choose game.

What are you talking about? Lady Deathstrike is NOT an X-Man, her and Wolvie are supposed to have some huge fight in the film. They didn't suddenly make her a good guy, unless I'm grossly mistaken.

And how exactly are they messing with the line-up? The X-Men have probably had at least a hundred different line-ups in the forty years they've been around. How could they possibly select a lineup for the movies without some sort of pick and choose game?

I'm just going from the trailer I've seen. It they included Deathstrike with the others, so I assumed that they were pretending she was an X-Man all along. My bad.

And the X-Men have had changes, but Iceman isn't that much younger than Cyclops and Jean and such. It's just the little things that bug me, I guess. At least they could have kept that straight. Really digging Nightcrawler, through, love those bellbottoms. Might go and buy a figure.

yeah, I can see Samuel Le Bihan play Gambit. They could even bring him into the plot through Rouge, if they want to be accurate with the comics. Also, I think his super power would look awesome on film. Cmon. Explosions. In an action movie.

Yeah, then we can get a subplot about how Iceman is going to kick Gambit's ass then see him get completely destroyed by an energized eight of clubs.

Just givin' you an update. X2 wipes the floor with the first one. This movie is fucking incredible. No matter how high your expectations are you WILL NOT be dissapointed. I saw this movie with 5 friends and not a single one of them could name one thing they didn't like about this movie. I was speechless after seeing it. It's that good.

Think I'll catch a matinee next Wednesday then. Hopefully by then House of 1000 Corpses will still be playing.....but I doubt I'm that lucky.

*SMALLEST SPOILER YOU'LL EVER SEE*

Saw it yesterday, loved it. I usually frown at big elaborate CGI-ed slo-mo action sequences that are obviously only there to make people go 'whoa!', but I must say I loved the opening with Nightcrawler. That's some fucking sweet motion control work.

I saw the midnight show. Fucking LOVED IT! I don't claim to know a damn thing about the comic books, so I'm not one of those people who are gonna bitch about how so-and-so should be older by now, or why is this person in there when THAT person would fit much nicer. Not knocking any of you, you're obviously holding this movie closer to your hearts than I am, but from somebody who just really liked the first one, this one is way more enjoyable.

Oh, yeah. Nightcrawler kicks ass.

And were they stinky??

The bamfs were very satisfactory. Nobody mentioned any stinks, but the gas sure looked like it could burn a couple of nostrils.

Don't want to hype it up too much but yeah, Nightcrawler was pretty cool. He was the comic relief a lot of the time, which feels pretty weird at first, but it's not really a problem. Plus, he's fucking deep blue. I'd kill to be deep blue
