i cant belive its already been a year since i seen the movie in theatres, wow
anyways, since the official release, have your thoughts changed about the movie?
mine have changed a little, i used to hate it, i still do but not as much lol
Changed for the better. When I first saw the movie I didn't hate it but didn't really enjoy it either. I was totally spoiled, knew everything that was gonna happen etc. so that didn't help. I mainly started enjoying it again when it came out on DVD.
I'll always hate it, and after seeing other Marvel series get such great treatment like Iron Man and Hulk, it makes the mistakes of X3 even more intolerable.
My thoughts have not really changed. I enjoyed many parts of the film, but felt the script/ studio politics created many weak points -- it had more potential. I like both X1 and X3 equally, with X2 being my favorite.
Before I saw this film The Phantom Menace was the most disappointing movie I had ever seen but, at least that movie had great action and wasn't 30 minutes less than it should have been. After a year has gone by my opinion of X3 has not changed. It is still the most disappointing movie ever for me.
The movie is the same now than in 2006, so the quality is the same. Not as great as could have been... not only the best of the trilogy, but the best of the superheroes movies.
Well, based on the 1st time I saw it, yea I like it better since I hated it the first time I saw it. Well, not hated it, but I let my disappointment consume me.
After that, I grew to love the film, seeing it 7 times in theatres, countless times on a bootleg download, and countless times when the DVD came out.
The "new movie" high has come and gone, so I don't obsess about the movie as much as I used to. I still enjoy the movie. It is probably better than X-Men. I don't know that I'd rate it higher than X2, although it has elements that I prefer over X2.
I didn't bother seeing it at the theater until about a month after it premiered. Even though I got the DVD for free I still haven't bothered watching it. That should answer your question.
Nah, I still hate. Not as much as on May 24 2006, but I still hate it. I still bash it to people. Last time was last saturday at a bar. (That wasn't entirely about X3, little bit about Fox in general.) The response was: "We should boycott Fox". Suits me.
yeah i am feeling the exact same way, unsatisfied with the movie (and even more upset at how much of a missed oppurtunity it was for an amazing movie).

My thoughts about it haven't changed either. For me it's still a waste of space and adds nothing to the X-Men mythos. After watching how great Spider-Man and Pirates was this year, I began to focus more on better films that got much greater treatment.

Your opinion has changed, X-Maniac quoted your original review which was actually pretty positive towards Ratner, Kinberg, Penn, and the movie in general
Spiderman 3 and Pirates of the Caribean: At World's End great?
Hardly.
Spiderman 3 wasn't bad, but it suffered from many of the same complaints that people had about X-Men: The Last Stand; bad pacing, undeveloped characters, and Spiderman 3 even had the same "day to night" editing error that X-Men: The Last Stand did, only it went from night to day instantly instead of day to night
after the final battle with Peter and MJ sitting with Harry as he dies, it all of a sudden becomes sunrise when it was just the middle of the night previously
Pirates of the Caribean also wasn't bad, but it shouldn't have been made.
The original was great. It was fun, and charming, without trying. But the sequels tried way too hard to recapture that charm, but because they were obviously trying too hard, it failed. Just, watching both Pirates sequels, I just didn't care the way I did watching the first one. Sometimes, you can have too much of a good thing, and the decision to turn Pirates of the Caribean into a trilogy is proof of that. Should have just left it at the first one.
