"By The Goddess": The Official Storm/Halle Berry Discussion

[TheWeatherMan]

:D Do you think the conversation could go along them lines?

I hope so... and I definately think it's possible. I believe that it would be the best way to incorporate a history for Storm. Tell us why she is there (as another user stated).

[TheWeatherMan]

If the conversation is exactly like my dialogue, I want a credit and the chance to be involved in writing a future movie!

I'll be very surprised if the conversation will be as detailed as my dialogue scene. They'd be welcome to use it, but it's a bit late now - I should have thought of it earlier and made sure Simon and Zak saw it.

It's going to be all your fault!... if only you were more creative a lot QUICKER! ;)

[TheWeatherMan]

I love that shot, Storm about to unleash the fury!!!:up:

I would say so...

She looks pissed, annoyed and ready to whoop some mutates!!!

[X-Maniac]

It's going to be all your fault!... if only you were more creative a lot QUICKER! ;)

Yeh, drat and double drat... :O :(

With any luck, they'll do something very similar.

**** SIMON, ZAK, hey there, yoohoo, are you watching/listening... Did you see my dialogue suggestion!**** :) :spidey: :supes:

Bruce Willis refused to film a sex scene with Halle Berry - because she is too gorgeous.

The 'Die Hard' actor - who stars with the Oscar winning actress in upcoming film 'Perfect Stranger'- made Halle act out the racy scenes alone because he was scared he would get too awkward.

The 'Monster's Ball' actress was forced to writhe around in a bed on her own, while the crew played a recording of Willis' voice. advertisement



The editors then had to put the pair together using computer wizardry.
It was the first time the pioneering technique has been used for a sex scene.

Willis said: "I get all awkward. She's beautiful. It's almost like looking at an eclipse of the sun.

"You have to poke a pin through a card and look at her through that. She's so stunning you could damage your retina."

Meanwhile, the 51-year-old actor has announced he would love to make 'Die Hard 4.'

The heartthrob actor admits he would love to reprise his role as tough US cop John McClaine in another instalment of the action series.

Hmmm...

[Tashe]

Speaking of revealing dialogues, this is part of a dialogue or scene from one of my fics that I think fits in with the dymamics between Storm and Wolverine, or Wolverine and the X Men...


"After what happened at Alkali Lake, I had some things to deal with." His expression immediately turned preoccupied. "Scott was worried about me. I asked him for some time alone to meditate and find my resolve. Logan…" She sighed taking a moment to look at him. Even though he was looking at her, he seemed lost in his own reverie and she wondered what thoughts were behind his intense gaze. However, she also wondered how could she make him understand how important was for all of them to keep their unity, their friendship and their trust in each other. She wanted to make him see that now that he was one of them, he was not just another mutant trying to escape the hostile world outside. He was part of something much more important, something that started being a journey of learning and understanding who and what they were, and to try and find a way to fit in and co-exist. A journey that had become a fight between those with gifts they didn't ask for, and those who thought that life started and ended with them, even though they were all humans. "In Kenya," Storm said sitting down on his bed suddenly changing her mind about giving him explanations. Instead, she decided to make him see the bigger picture. "…the land of my mother, life was simple. Every sunrise did not bring fear and a struggle for survival, and every sundown was not a time to mourn. We were all equal, children of the earth. Nobody ever took more than what they needed but everyone had enough to live. We did not have mutants’ haters; we did not even know they existed. This life," She extended her arms as she said it, like trying to symbolically embrace their surroundings physically, mentally and emotionally with the gesture. "…is so much different. I do not have to explain to you why. I had a lot to learn when I came here. Many times, I longed to go back to my land where this hate and this injustice could not reach me, but I stayed. I stayed for two reasons, Logan." Storm studied his face to see if she still had his attention and saw that he was totally concentrated on her. "First, I realized there is no escaping this hate and this injustice. It is everywhere mutants exist. It does not just find us, it seeks us, and the only way to survive it is to stand and fight. I rather find a way to make them understand that we have the right to exist and to be here, but so far they do not want to listen. I do not like violence, but if the words fail, I will still be standing here." Wolverine was completely taken with her honesty and her bravery. He sat by her side, not too close but not too far.
"And number two?" He asked her showing sincere interest and she smiled.
"Out here, so far from the place I called home for many years of my life, I found a second home with people, who little by little, became like a family to me. Through times of hesitation and doubt, when I did not understand this world and its customs and the whole city felt like a prison, I always had the support and comfort of Jean and Scott. The Professor was our guide and our teacher, and in many ways like a father to us all, so we became like siblings. We share a special bond. They are the best friends I have ever known. I would do anything for them and they would do the same for me. We love each other and we protect one another, and we will never betray the faith we have put in each other." Storm said the last sentence more emphatically reminding him of his terrible accusations. Wolverine lifted his hands at chest level adopting a surrendering posture acknowledging his mistake, and then rested his arms on his knees and lowered his head. Storm reached out with her hand and gave his arm a little squeeze. "Logan, give him a chance. Give us all a chance and you will know what it is like to always have someone there to watch your back, to share the good and the tough times or simply enjoy the comfortable silence. I told you before, you do not need to be alone." Wolverine took a deep breath. He was looking at her hand on his arm while she spoke and enjoying her soothing touch. He took that very hand in his and squeezed it just a little, the very way she has done before.

I had something to say re: why Willis probably couldn't go through with the scene, but I'll keep my dirty thoughts to myself :p

[ororoandme]

so...Storm came off as really strong and opinionated i nthe preview tonite...and Hank referred to her as Ororo :-D

[Goddessreicho]

Beast had aan adorable line about Storm's hair. It was so cute. As much as I love Rolo, screw it. Logan is a jerk in the movies. He deserves to be miserable chasing after someone else's re-death'd bird.

I am actually looking foward to the interaction between Beast and Storm.

[PWN3R]

I'm am looking foward to Storm in X3, but her response to Beast and Rogue was wrong IMO.

She immediately shot down the idea of taking the cure, yet didn't think about the effect it would have for others. I mean is she dense? She is sitting next to Beast, a guy who looks like an animal. That must be hard to live with. Of course Beast corrected her, and sher said sorry, or w/e she said.

Then Rogue comes in, who is incapable of humant contact because of her power, excited about the idea of a cure, and very quickly Storm basically makes a decision for her saying no do not to take it. In a way, yes Storm is right, someone shouldn't be 'cured' of who they are, but she was in no position to shoot down Rogue like that. Especially Rogue and Beast.

That was annoying IMO.

You just proved my point. HER opinion. She has no right to tell Rogue no like that. If she doesn't want the cure then fine, but for people whos power affects their lives, that is their choice.

[ManX07]

i think what storm is trying to do is save rogue from doing something that she may regret in the near future.

[WorthyStevens]

To be fair, that was her first time hearing about the cure. The cure gives out the message that mutation is a disease, is horrible, etc... Alot of which Storm is strongly against, and rightfully so.

I think her intention was to be neither of those things, even though it could be taken like that, but perhaps she is so cement in the idea that mutants may never achieved acceptance, something she's been fighting for alongside the x men for a long time, if they keep trying to be or not be the way others perceive them. You know like 'look so normal that I don't even have to worry that you may be a mutant' or 'be so good and in a place where I know where you are and what you are doing all the time so that I don't have to be afraid of you' or 'just be gone, you shouldn't have existed in the first place'.

IMO it was a faster than lightning reaction (pun soo intended), it might've come natural for her to react like that, being a daughter of Nature and loving all living things and all that that she didn't stop to think of the unique situation others have. Nothing to do with denseness (is that a word?) or with her being rude, even though it came accross like that. To me it shows that with Storm, what she sees when she sees a mutant is a living thing who deserves love and respect and to her whoever doesn't accept them, they are the ones who are wrong and the ones who may need a cure for their minds, hearts and souls. (Can I get an Amen?)

I think that she may also feel that for any of them to even consider the cure, these people who are her family, it would be like they are saying that there is something wrong with her too, that maybe normal humans are right, etc. In other words, what the hell have they been fighting for all this time?

My God, the X Men are deep.

True, but I think that's a very realistic viewpoint. Someone who hasn't had to hide physically who she is or have to give up basic human sensations just wont understand what it's like. And I'm glad that they showed that viewpoint, even if I disagree with it.

[PWN3R]

I must say if anything the 'cure' subplot is great for this very reason.

Halle Berry: A Legacy in the Making
May 10, 2006

She's sexy, talented, beautiful and looking at her, you would never guess she's about to turn 40!

Halle Berry stole the spotlight Tuesday night at the Producer's Guild of America, where she was honored with the 2006 Celebration of Diversity Award. "To be honored for being able to make a way out of noway is what really feels good," she said. "That's what my career has been all about, and I believe that will be my legacy."

While we can count the ways Halle will leave her mark on Hollywood, the sexy actress has many other reasons to celebrate.

Tuesday night, Halle broke news about her latest slated project, co-starring a hunky leading Latin lover. "I am doing a movie with fine-ass Benicio Del Toro," she revealed.

In real life, Halle's leading man is also easy on the eyes -- model Gabriel Aubry. While he wasn't on her arm Tuesday night, he was the reason for her beaming smile.

Even though Halle is nearly a decade older than Gabriel, age means nothing to the couple. It seems impossible that gorgeous Halle will be turning 40! "I'm not really. Haven't you heard?" she joked.

All joking aside, Halle is not dreading her milestone year: "I'm just feeling the age I feel, and I'm just not trying that hard to do anything about it. I'm just trying to enjoy life."

Halle is also enjoying her summer on the big screen. She's taking the box office by storm, or rather, as Storm, reprising her role as the sexy mutant in "X-Men: The Last Stand."

"That's why I think the ‘X-Men' series is so loved," Berry said. "Everybody relates to it. Everybody understands what it's like to be an outsider. In some form, we've all dealt with it."

You can count on "Extra" for your complete Storm watch as "X-Men: The Last Stand" hits theaters this summer.

I disagree. She reacted the way Comic Storm would have. Ororo is extremely proud of her mutant heritage--she cherishes it. And she can't understand why others would want to throw theirs away to be "normal". She is very much the X-Men's answer to Mystique (from X2).

I don't believe she was rude at all. She reacted the way any mother would when their daughter comes to them with what they percieve is a bad idea.

Storm was protecting Rogue in that scene...and giving her a reality check.

I wrote that after only seeing it once. After seeing it a couple times, it did make sense, but she still seemed rude. :p

She was just protecting a student, a friend, a sister. And you are right, she is proud of her being a mutant. Plus we don't know what happens after that.

[OncomingStorm]

Storm is those kids' mother and she reacted how any mother would in that situation. If I told my mom that I wanted to take a pill that would make me a white male so I could fit in and have the same opportunities, she'd whoop my black (YOU KNOW WHAT). Be glad Storm didn't take Rogue over her knee...

But did Storm put herself in Rogue's shoes? Not literally, of course. Rogue can't touch something w/o weakening them or even killing them. If I were her, I'd definitely think about taking the cure. Did Storm put this in consideration?

[PWN3R]

The thing is, they are both right. Someone shouldn't change themselves because others think they are different. Yet if you couldn't get close to someone, that would effect you.

The cure subplot is what is going to make X3 an interesting film. See, it even makes us disagree! ;) :p

Wrong answer. Hudlin is getting hated on beacuse Storm asked for a brush, and acted like a moron about it.

Beast comment on her hair is totally different. And if you noticed in the books people have often complimented her hair changes too (except for the mohawk, that was more of a WTF response from the gang).

Wow, the actors are sooo excited about this film. And somehow I'm not sensing that it's simply for the sake of promoting it. And it's good to see Halle involved with the interviews, etc., I felt she was pretty nonplussed about her X2 performance for some reason.

Halle has always been fodder for hate...especially if it's about the X-Men...hopefully she will deliver well in this movie :D

[StormCrazy]

I just watched the preview and I noticed that Halle's line from the trailer " There's nothing to cure...nothing's wrong with any of us for that matter" has changed to " ...there's nothing wrong with you or any of us for that matter" It was not as intense as the trailer version. I wish they use the one's in the trailer it was much better.:(

yep, I really cant wait for this movie

[RagingTempest]

The guys on IGN are really ragging on Halle in the preview clip(s)... :(

-TNC

As usual, I swear it won't matter how well Halle does this time around because they will still find something to bash about her!!!:o :down

[RagingTempest]

I love how Storm looks in this shot, you can tell her presence is much stronger than the last 2 films!!!:up:

[RagingTempest]

Bump!!!

[TNC9852002]

Yea...After all these years, I sincerely doubt, all biases aside, that no matter what Halle does in this movie, many of those that already had a certain opinion on her (whether they be personal or not) wouldn't dare change their minds after watching this movie...

It's a shame, really...I've always given actors second chances to redeem themselves..

:o I just don't understand how Halle has generated so much hate from people, it's sad and shocking!!! You know, I never knew how much people hated her as Storm and until I came to these boards and others!!!:eek:

[RagingTempest]

Look what someone wrote on youtube about the 7 minute preview:

My reactions: I love Kelsey Grammer so far as Beast, and Storm has been given a bit more character so far. The new mutants are too gang-oriented, but that seems kind of cool, actually. Also, from the brief fight clips at the end, I love how they made Storm into a Goddess/Badass she was in the comics.

:) :up:

I would agree. I have read all the post based on the reviews of others at this movie and no matter how bad they think it is...after watching the 7 min preview,
I still can't wait to see this movie!

[Specter313]

Just saw Halle on Entertainment Tonight, talking about X3. They also showed more of the scene where she spins down and takes out Arclight and Quill and then blasts Callisto with lightning right after, as well as some behind the scenes stuff of her flying.

[Rrhyno]

Think about it, She's pretty, has an oscar, etc........ people are gonna find the smallest things to bring her down. She's obviously a very good actress, X1 & X2 just didn't really show it off. X3 will most certainly will.

Besides, the majority of people love Halle Berry. Woman admire her & Men think shes hot. She was named one of people's most beautiful people.

The only people who really hate on her is:
-the people who only remembers her from X1 & 2
-Storm haters
-& haters in general

Overall, now that she has the opportunity, Halle will ace Storm in X3!

If, you have been in these discussions lately & read most of the pages, 99% of the people are actually praising her as storm now.

I think after people saw those tv spots, trailers, etc.......... they can obviously see that Halle Berry is being Storm. All she needed was a good script.

[Rrhyno]

I must say that i agree 100% - even though the boards have gotten somewhat negative once again since all these clips have been introduced, it is great to see how very little (if not none) is directed to halle berry for once!

:) I Agree Also!:)

[xwolverine2]

sounds awesome!!

[Rrhyno]

Ooooooooooooo Yay Hooray So Happy!!!

[X-Maniac]

Sounds a great movie from a Storm point of view...

Other things sound a bit disappointing. No Storm/Phoenix showdown, no Phoenix firebird...

[xwolverine2]

i was def. not expecting a stormvs pheonix scene....that wouldve been stupid

[X-Maniac]

i was def. not expecting a stormvs pheonix scene....that wouldve been stupid

Why? They fought in the comics. And the release of images and official graphics even hinted at it, placing them in what looked like opposing poses.

[xwolverine2]

that doesnt stop it from being stupid

[X-Maniac]

that doesnt stop it from being stupid

In. Your. Opinion.

You have no evidence to show it would be stupid or is stupid, so stop being argumentative and go away.

[xwolverine2]

pheonix would kick storms butt......no question

[X-Maniac]

pheonix would kick storms butt......no question

So? So we shouldn't have a battle because someone would win? How stupid is that. Someone wins every battle.

Everyone tried to stop Phoenix in the comics, including Storm.

Actually, everyone except Wolverine, oddly enough... but look what we got!

[ororoandme]

I'm really dissapointed that there isn't a Storm vs. Phoenix face off in the movie...IGN had a report on it...I wonder what happened?

[Rrhyno]

OK in comics, Storm would gave Phoenix a hell of a challenge, possibly could win, But in the movie idk..............................

[ororoandme]

OK in comics, Storm would gave Phoenix a hell of a challenge, possibly could win, But in the movie idk..............................
I honestly don't think Storm would've been much of a challenge to Phoenix...the latter is just too powerful

[Goddessreicho]

It doesn't matter who would win cause Jean dies PERIOD

Yes she (Jean) is all powerful, ominpetent, blah blah blah, but that doesn't matter when you can't handle it. I hate what the Phoenix has become. Everytime she comes back it cheapens the character. She should have stayed dead after the first Dark Phoenix saga, FCOL.

Also whenever they uber a character out the destroy any sense of ...ah characterization. Phoenix can either fix everything, destroy everything, or DIE! Thats it, thats all the drama that the Phoenix is good for. This is why characters with no limits suck. They can do everything them selves. Jean doesn't need a team of superheros to be on. She's all powerful! Uggg.

This is kinda why I hope that Storm doesn't get the omega status. But that's just my humble opinion. Please don't hurt me.

But yeah I'm hoping that they show Storm being a decent tactition. Cause she is. Please, please, please let Logan call her bosslady. I loved that.

Oh yeah I'm watching G4 and they continualy trash X4 and Ratner. I thought they would have grown on it buy now. Boooo. I wanna go to E3!

[the_scream]

Halle's acting has not improved much since X2. She doesn't sell the role like Jackman or Stewart. Does anyone else have a problem with the fact that her character in X1 is totally different in X3? Not just the voice.

Could you tell me how is the interaction between Storm and Wolverine? Does he respect her in the movie, at least by the end of it? And also, who leads the x men? :)

[HexualCirce]

Does anyone else have a problem with the fact that her character in X1 is totally different in X3? Not just the voice.

No.

And that's because it shows a growth in her charecter. You say she's different than she was in X1. Are you forgeting X2? Her charecter has grown through out these films as any human being would.

[JustABill]

In Ororo's case....a mutated human being. :p

Storm, Magento, Xavier & Kitty Pride absolutely sell their roles. Hugh does a great job also.

I didn't know where to put this besides here cuase it the storm thread. But anyway, heres from Classic X-men #2: Jean expects Misty to be home soon and asks Ororo to change out of costume, as she doesn’t want their secret ID’s exposed. Storm activates the unstable molecules of her costume with a flash of lightning and stands there naked.

I posted this because people were confused on how in the comics and cartoo storm changed outa her costume with lighting. Guess it does have 2 do with unstable molecules.

Hey everyone Halle Berry says she is happy with Storm among other things
http://www.iesb.net/fox2006/051206b.php

and a great interview with little spoilers on Storm's development in the movie so dont read if you dont want to be spoiled.

http://www.**************.com/news/articles/2723.asp

Xfanfan

[OncomingStorm]

For some reason I don't believe that's Halle in the latter interview, she doesn't talk that way. Somethings fishy with that interview, in my opinion.

[Celestio]

Seems legit to me. I love this question:

It was previously mentioned that you had stated that you didn’t want to come back unless you had more to do in the film.

HB: That’s what I threatened. (laughs) But I really wasn’t going to do that, but I thought that I somehow have to scare the **** out of them and get them to give Storm a point of view, so I really didn’t say that to the studio; I just sort of threw that around thinking that it will get some attention. This is all I ever wanted. Not really more screen time because I know it’s an ensemble, but if Storm spoke for 5 minutes, then I wanted it to be 5 minutes that meant something; 5 minutes of character development; 5 minutes of a point of view and 5 minutes of some back story history, not just “go get the plane” or “come on kids, let’s go”. After three movies, I really wanted her lines to mean something.

This is interesting too:

How do you think the character has evolved?

HB: I think she evolved quite nicely, especially considering that there’s a bunch of other great characters that need some evaluation and development and screen time. I thought just the one sentence in the beginning of the movie when she says, you know, that she realized that she was from Africa and in her country, with her powers she was revered and in this country she’s put down upon. That alone said a lot about who she was, where she came from, and what her struggles was all about. That’s all I ever wanted, a little bit of understanding of who she was.

In that second interview, she says something on characterisation of Storm that isn't in the movie, according to PhoenixWillRise. Something's strange! Why would she talk about a scene that isn't in the press screenings of the movie?

I'm so confused lol. Halle must have shot that scene, so did they cut it? Or did they just not show it at the press screening?

Hmm! :confused:

[Electrix]

It'll be on the DVD....hopefully.

[flavio_lebeau]

i cant believe they will let character development scenes out. thats typical of Fox, sacrificing the characters just for the sake of action :mad: i HATE them!!!!!!!!!

[Xfanfan]

That is very true Fox is known for that, in honesty I would rather Marvel get back the rights to the X-men or sell it to a better company.

Xfanfan

[Storm22]

And yet that wasn't in the press screening that PWR saw!!! What's going on?!

Something is definitely up X-Maniac! I'm thinking more and more that the press screenings were an unfinished cut!

[Xfanfan]

Something is definitely up X-Maniac! I'm thinking more and more that the press screenings were an unfinished cut!

It is very possible that they left out few scenes out of the press screening to surprise fans when the movie comes out. These days anything is possible.

Xfanfan

[flavio_lebeau]

but a scene of Storm talking about her past cant have special effects, so it cant be finished. If it was let out, it means it just got cut :mad:

[Storm22]

I've never been SO confused over a movie before - the running time debacle and now this!!

[Electrix]

I'd just like to point out that there is a clip in the 7 minute preview of Storm telling Rogue 'There is nothing wrong with anyone of us for that matter'. It is different from the trailer.

There is also a short bit http://iesb.net/video/x3thecure.mov and it has it but it different from the other two. Halle looks at different places when she says it. They have probably had them do this scene about 50 million times and are editing it and seeing which one works best...

woahhhhhhhhh i read that interview for x3 wow!!!!!!!!

You should try and think back to when we weren't even sure if Storm was gonna be in this movie and then think of all it has been accomplished to make the character shine this time around and how the weight of uncertainty is not over us anymore...That calms me down, though not for long, but it's something.

[The Storm]

I remember back last year when we were waiting for Halle to sign on. Plus to had to deal with all those Halle haters complaining non stop. Thankfully that has all stopped now!

[JustABill]

Me: I'm sorry but for some reason...
Me: Halle is one of the funniest people
Me: to make ghetto when poking fun.
Me: cause she's just soo
Me: unghetto.
Lyn: haha. i know.
Me: it's really funny
Me: if you picture her
Me: with the corny ass wig from X2
Lyn: Lol.
Lyn: worse wig ever
Me: It looks like
Me:: it's gonna fall off her
Me:: any minute
Me:: and it turns blonde like all the time during the movie.
Me:: I kept expecting
Me:: Jean or Wolverine to go.
Me:: ''What the hell is up with your hair?"
Me: ''Magic weave! Make my momma proud. Ororo done gone and got the high class 1.99 weave."

Where did you get that?! That's awesome.

[Lightning Strykez!]

One of the fans hosted it in the "Clips" thread. Pretty cool huh?

It appears that Storm is still summoning lightning from the skies but now has the ability to make it coil around her and direct it from her hands. Which works I guess.

[The Storm]

Storm looks well mean in that clip!

[Lightning Strykez!]

I'm saddened that so many of our fellow Storm fans have left us...it feels like what's going to happen in the film: Many of the chief players (Weather Witch, LittleMissVixen, etc.,) have all left. We've had too many SHH character deaths in the last few weeks.

Where is everyone? :(

[The Storm]

Perhaps everyone is keeping low to avoid spoilers.

[JustABill]

I think that's what has happened Lightning. They aren't dead. They are just MIA because of spoilers.

Now if only we could get Cyclops MIA, but that's better saved for his thread. This thread is all about the beautiful windrider. :D

PS: And thank you for the kind laughter, over my internet conversation. I'll be here all week. -curtsies like Halle on the official website-

I guess they figured it's much more practical in a fight rather than titlting her head upwards and raising her arms. I couldn't really complain about it seeing how much her character has grown into this fierce fighter.


P.S: I must pay up, you were right I was wrong. There is two fights between Storm and Callisto. :p

[Lightning Strykez!]

The German reviews are coming in, so far it's looking pretty good for the film. JDD translated this:

The x-Men row goes into the third round. We remember: At the end of the second part Jean Grey (Famke Jannsen) died, because it protected its friends before an enormous water wave. Before we became a witness like their own Telekinese forces against her turned and Jean them to ever less control could, what led schiesslich to its death. The third film begins now with a review; an attendance of Dr. Xavier and Magneto with the young Jean Grey before twenty years. At that time still united both persuade to place the dte rodent their forces into the service of the x-Men. Again in the today's time some changed. The x-Men is meanwhile no more the offending and outlawed Mutanten separates aktzeptierte citizens. The president of the United States does not act no more against it, but with them, as by the example of Dr. Hank Mc Coy alias Beast (Kelsey Grammer) shows up, which has even a position in the white house. How fadenscheinig this alleged Aktzeptanz is however, proves oneself, when the government finds a means, with which one the Mutanten "heal", thus her into "normal" humans without abilities transform can. This means is protected held in shape of the boy Leech (Cameron Bright) on the prison island the Alcatraz equally and, is to be given all Mutanten, if necessary by force. Both the x-Men and the dark crowd around Magneto, which live meanwhile in the underground, are everything but in agreement with this plan. They do not want to give their singularness up. Or like Storm says so beautifully: "there is nothing to heal, because nothing is wrong with us" none suspects however that already soon a still much larger problem to you will come. This problem begins completely harmlessly with mourning a Cyclops (James Marsden), which does not away-come over the loss of his friend Jean Grey. He can understand it than it suddenly in person before him stands the less. When little late Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) and Storm (Berry resounds) find the unconscious Jean, itself professor Xavier (Patrick Stewart) is not safe whether this nature is actually the woman, whom they all and (particularly Wolverine) love, or somewhat completely different one. How quite it has with its considerations will point itself, already soon to devastating way. OFF HERE SPOILER ALARM With stopped breath I waited for the third part of the "x-Men"-Saga. The disappointing message that Bryan Singer the direction at "Rush Hour" director board Rattner had delivered absorbed my Vorfreude already a small little; I admit that openly. As it can create a beginner a cinematic universe already established excitingly and willful further to lead, still to it if the two predecessor films absolutely by Singers of wonderful public work were coined/shaped. The question, which to "x-Men" fan, as I, in all world placed myself is: "does does succeed striking board Rattner the doubts of the fans into the wind and to deliver a first-class continuation, or have it Singer's first two parts opposite struck to give oneself? This question is now answered. But this answer is everything but simply. Rattner did not make the error to push the film completely different stamp open but here and there one marks nevertheless the absence of Bryan Singer to him as a director. The action strand approximately around Jean Grey's conversion into "Phoenix" is alone taken with distance the most interesting and tragic of the whole film and can, for itself, with which both predecessors loosely keep up. To be thanked above all the fantastischen Famke Jannsen in this connection, which never acts in its scenes "more over the top", must and which the internal Zerissenheit gives to the figure times survive-largely and times in small nuances price. You belong also the two best scenes of the film: the dismantling of a complete house, with their shaken exit me the breath came to a hold and the conclusion of the final fight, in the Wolverine a last mark tries the power monster of the Phoenix to break. Hugh Jackman convinces once more than Wolverine. After it was in the second part on the constant search after its past, it is to be saved here his unrestrained will Jean, who propels it. Already nearly the cult became its Onliner, which loosen the happening up again and again in ironical way. Resounds Berry gets much more canvas operational readiness level than granted in the two previous films and knows it effectively to use. Their Storm is savages, decide, more kaempferischer and more purposefully ever. And one sees it flying finally. Contrary to these three large characters the Praesenzen of the remaining roles is rapidly shortened: Anna Paquin has only a small appearance as Rogue, in that her itself decides the cure to take around its friend Iceman to affect to be able without him damage to cause. Rebecca Romijn (without Stamos) alias Mystique is transformed all too by the Mutanten into humans and is then away by the window and also Aaron Stanford as Pyro functioned nearly only as a helper of Magneto. To be silent completely of James Marden, whose Cyclops disappears faster than one looking can. Sir Ian McKellen as Magneto and James Stewart as a professor X deliver again a charismatisches bottom plate, even if Stewart leaves the film after the first quarter McKellen succeeds it its role in only one scene a completely new side to gain. We come to the new Mutanten: Beast, Kitty Pride (inches PAGE), Juggernaut (Vinnie Jones) and fishing rod (Ben Forster). The film script permits them only one handful of scenes, which are however not yet times at the surface of their Charactere settled. And to over really bind although figures quite arouse such as fishing rod and Beast the interest of the public (particularly of fishing rod I would have gladly more seen), remain her unfortunately too strongly in the background or too little assigned. The only exception is inches PAGE, which a waked up Kitty Pride delivers and owing to a Nebenhandlung with Ice one enough time for the order has, in order to hold itself in the memory of the spectator. The effects of the film are with few exceptions first-class, particularly the dismantling that gate Bridge at the end, the mentioned house destruction and the change of Jean Grey in Phonix are golden absoute "State OF kind" and most effectively. Also the numerous fights of the x-Men are choreographiert and never miss their effect at the public. With the final battle finally one fights, flogged and struck which things holds. The "best" combat scene has thereby Storm, which whirls effect never before with one seen gale-like by air and strikes down its opponents all together. What is not so functioned to my opinion after in the film the thing with the healing. The history of the boy, who can rob the Mutanten by its bare presence the forces, is well prepared, but on half distance it is ignored suddenly and continued to tell no longer. Praising value is it that Rattner emphasizes similarly as Singer the comparisons to our reality. One can equate the Heimittel against mutations in our world with a cure against gays. The question whether different ones to "normality" it decides, if they had the chance to the fact ties at the intelligent thoughts of the first two parts. In addition, these mental impetuses are on half distance. Very unfortunate I found it also that the musical guidance topic of John Ottman, to which, only once in a changed version rang out to composers of the first two films. The music of John Powell helps to accompany the tension and Emotionalitaet of the scenes, but in things stamping SAMNESS and Intensivitaet do not hand it to those of its predecessor near. Like that the third part of x-Men is completely reliably no disappointment, it gives scenes those is unforgettable and board Ratner it with the phon ix-strand particularly succeeded to tell history exciting and heart-tearing up further. Does not regard one the film however as complete work becomes I the feeling loosely, as if history was too fast told somewhat and both Rattner and the film script writers would have had themselves to give still more trouble with the figures and their relations among themselves. With its 107 minutes length is "x-Men - which nevertheless is last reconditions" twenty minutes more briefly than the second part and probable it exactly these minutes the film grandiosen from a very good film have made could. Result: A worthy successor with mad actors and an intelligent and touching history, even if board Ratner's film moves a small little under the level of the first two Singer Fime. Importantly: Until remove in the hall remain, because still another scene comes.

So it sounds like the reviewers are pleased with Berry's portrayal, and this one says that the best combat/action scene of the film goes to Storm. :up:

[The Storm]

Have you seen the Halle picture in the unflattering thread?! Its hilarious.

[ororoandme]

This is such a turn around for Halle! YAY! best fight scene? :) Let's see what that does to the naysayers...:)

Oh, the whole clip is much better. ;) So far -- Storm owns Callisto, Callisto owns Storm and the end result at the final battle is still unknown. I hope Callisto loses an eye.

[Storm22]

LS! what do you make of the whole "was the press screening the finished version" debate? The press screening had noticeable absences of Storm's tidal wave and Mystique's computerised voice among others!

I really don't know what's going on. The trailer featured that sequence prominently. The set reports interviewed the SFX guy, and he was gushing over it. I think the writers talked about it too.

So for it to not appear in the film at all makes no sense. Apparently this was a big $$$ shot...why not use it?

[The Storm]

Perhaps and I'm hoping its not, a publicity shot. They use them in trailers to get people interested but you never see them in the movie.

Maybe in editing they felt it was to much Storm, but wouldn't they have to explain the water on the ground all the sudden in other takes and angles of the war scene...

And for Mystique to have a computerised voice in the Yahoo clip but not the screening is very odd! I'm thinking more and more that they're still finalising the FX and film in general. I can understand them cutting Storm's characterisation scene but a prominent FX shot like the tidal wave doesn't make any sense!
According to John Bruno the international screening version had to be done by May 4th, "no matter what".

It wont be like that in the final film.

Yeah I think we're gonna see more of her in the air before she starts to spin.

look at Storm as she lands after knocking Quills and Arclight away. There's a white string like object coming from her arm!

maybe! The more i look at it now the more it looks like a jetstream effect, because she's spinning so fast.

[Celestio]

Yeahh. :up:

I love how she kind of appears from a tornado. If you look as she descends, she has a tornado forming around her which then dissapears as she spins towards Quill and Arclight.

[Storm22]

HA, look at Quills, the cocky fool, casually strolling up to Storm thinking he can take her and then BOOM! - a nice lightning bolt does the trick and sends him flying!!:up: LOVE IT!

It looks like some kind of smokes after zapping Quill with her lightnings.

[_BB_]

It looks to me like the scene it cut up atthe point where the white thing forms, storm leans forward like she is about to throw something so maybe the white thing is the formation of lightning right before she is about to "throw" it

that or it could just be a contrail

I mean, look at her? The visual representation of her powers has me completely dumbstruck. hey have more than surpassed my expecatations, and i aint even seen it yet!!!!!

[philbo]

One of the fans hosted it in the "Clips" thread. Pretty cool huh?

It appears that Storm is still summoning lightning from the skies but now has the ability to make it coil around her and direct it from her hands. Which works I guess.

Well on the official site, it does say that Storm can generate lightning from her body....you never know. We might yet see strom blasting lightning out! Although, i will admit, i actually 100% love what we're seeing, the way she directs it and it flows around her. I think that looks stunning!

[philbo]

"Halle Berry did much, much better this time out. I was not a fan of her character in X-Men, and thought her role in X2 was ok, but forced. In this film, they really put attention towards the character. In my opinion, Storm is the baddest character in this film, right next to Jean Grey, and Ian McKellen's Magneto. She flies, turns herself into a tornado, and whoops collective booty. Unfortunately, she doesn't go one on one with Jean in the final battle, which is what fans probably really wanted to see."

Just thought i'd steal this from a review thats posted in the main forum, jst for those who haven't read it! Sod the end of uni, i'm more bothered about seeing my favourite fictional character of all time brought to life on film!

[theJust]

this is from the latest msn uk review

In baseball, it's three strikes and you're out – let's hope that applies to Halle Berry because as stunning as she undoubtedly is, she still doesn't convince as Storm, despite having more screen time. Truth is, she's a lightweight, delivering her (admittedly clichéd) lines with about as much conviction as a Ferreira in EastEnders.

haha, i knew she wouldnt come around this time either!
angela bassett why oh why not?!?!
