I'm not sure if can watch tomorrow, if not then watch on Monday night at Plant 16 in Panorama City. It's big theater with Mann's exclusive, nice resolution and awesome interior.

heard it, seen it, hate it.

Never thought I be so disapointed in the final chapter of the X-Men trilogy.

carry on.

Hi Alex, I have not seen it yet. I am sure my brother and sister already took their kids to see that movie at the cinema. My family is hearing and I am the only Deaf person in the family. I will have to wait for the DVD to come out with subtitles to watch the movie, X- Men.

Heath,

It's ok to wait till DVD comes out but you can check your movie theatres and cinemas to see if they have closed captioned..

we have few different places that have closed captioned.. two of different places have diffrent kind of closed captioned.. one is CC on screen and one is rear window captioned

here link to get idea..

closed captioned

That one place we just went, it was our first time to use "Rear Window Caption " we think its cool. but will be nice to have CC on screen... (i wouldnt complained cuz they provided cc for all of us or wouldnt ask anything more for it)..

but that one "rear window caption" looks like.. rear window captioned

I live 200 - 300 miles in the middle of no where and gas prices are very high so I can't really be going places and it is alots more cheaper for me to wait for the DVD with subtitles to come to my local video shack which I don't mind waiting but once I move to the city then I will enjoy watching the movie on screen with CC plus awesome Deaf socialization

Brett Ratner? Noooooooooooo!” screamed millions of fanboys all over the world last year. I wasn’t exactly ripping my hair out like they were, but I could more or less understand what all the fuss was about. I don’t know why, since Red Dragon proved that the man could direct as well as anyone, but something about his directing lacked polish and vision. Guess what… Ratner does an OK job on X-Men 3. Hell, I’ll even go as far to say that considering the time and means he had at his disposal, he does a pretty good job. Had he been given the scripts to X-Men 1 and 2, they probably would have been just as good. That’s right, I said it.

Unfortunately, the script to X-Men 3 is nowhere as good as the first two. Kinberg and Penn gave it their best shot, I’m sure they did, but having only a few months to develop the thing would cramp anyone’s creativity. And this is where the “vision” problem on Ratner’s part comes in, he probably didn’t really care. Unfortunately, that’s what separates the men from boys - Singer had a vision, Ratner has a script. He had a script that was serviceable, a great cinematographer, all the actors from the previous movies, a huge budget, but only a few months to do it. “F**k it, that’s enough, let’s make the thing,” he thought.

And while the gamble just barely paid off, I blame Ratner for not having the balls to stand up to the studio and say, “Listen, this is the end of the trilogy, we need to make this spectacular, and the schedule you’re giving me will only deliver a film that’s barely good.” This is a weak conclusion to such a trilogy, and while it’s not Matrix Revolutions disappointing, it commits the same unforgivable mistake – treating the characters like action figures instead of actual characters (remember the 20-minute Zion video game battle?). Yes, the first two movies got a lot of the character development out of the way, but that doesn’t mean that you should forget it all together.

Yes, I promised myself to not rag on Ratner’s directing too much, since it’s pretty good, but there are definitely problems. He certainly doesn’t know how to let a scene breathe and the editing is relentless. It’s all over in well under two hours and while the action scenes are nice, that’s not nearly enough. It’s not even a question of scale, it’s a question of investment. There are probably three times as many characters as in X2, and twice as much story, but it all happens so quickly that you can’t help but feel a little let down (Angel had such potential, but he’s in the movie for no more than three scenes). Take a look at Return of the King, that’s how you end a trilogy! And yet they could still find time for a quiet moment between Eowyn and Theoden. X-Men 3 seems to be too busy rapidly turning the pages of the script and blowing stuff up.

I watched the first two X-Men moves right before seeing X3, and that only made its anti-climactic nature only more apparent. It’s exciting and all, but it just doesn’t feel like where these characters needed to go. And don’t get me started on the whole “cure” thing. It’s a good idea and keeps the underlying themes of the first two movies alive, but the way it’s handled just left me scratching my head. Characters you know and love get a needle stuck in them and all of a sudden it’s “pow, you’re not a mutant anymore, thanks for playing.” Video game rules, man. And in Bryan Singer’s hands, these were comic book movies rooted in reality, not video game movies.

I haven't seen the movie, but I have read a few threads about it. Apparently the possiblity of a 4th movie is left open with a scene after the credits. I'll see Xmen 3 myself sometime soon.

The scene after the credits takes place in a hospital with a man sitting in a bed, (you can't see who he is) and a nurse walking in. The man in the bed says the name of the nurse, and she turns around and says "Charles?" It then ends. Btw, I'm glad the cure is only temporary .

I went to see it with my estranged strange spouse. I loved it, but I'm also in love with Hugh Jackman (wolverine). That's ok, he was watching Halle Barry.

Was it good? Making other part 4? Last Stand sounds like it is end for good?

I think so. I have not see it yet. I am going to wait for DVD. If it is too long and going to watch at movie theater with C.C. I think I might miss that and who knows.

I love Marvel movies. Can't wait for Ghost Rider the movie!

Also Spiderman 3! soon.
