How much do you really care about X3 being only 103 minutes?

[Jennifer Walters]

Also, I just got done watching Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children. The Final Fantasy stories and series are known for ''epic" awe inspiring stories. It was only 101 minutes!

An hour and 31 minutes! And it easily managed to convey it's epic followup story to the game in that time. If it can do it, this film can do it.

****ed up the ass by Fox?



I'm not even gonna justify that one with a full fledged response.

There is not point in arguing right now , some people can't calm down and simply discuss , if they have different opinion.

And to think that we are talking about a movie ..

Awesome!

Now go back to your individual character threads and let people not walk around like drones chanting "We like everything" over and over.

And stop *****ing about people not liking the idea of how long the movie is. They can. We all can. You're fine with it? Good for you buddy. But don't complain because you can't stand to see someone disagree with a creative decesion.

Yet you just did

 

[Jennifer Walters]

A full fledged response would be something with substance, that didn't deserve substance, so I gave you something that had no substance.

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, they say.

Whatever that means...

And ignore of a post with a post that means nothing. Thank you for proving you can show some intelligence and talk eye to eye with everyone.


And if this running time doesn't work out. Won't your face be red

 

[Jennifer Walters]

Oh no. I'm not saying you don't have the right to your opinion, but some of you are jumping to conclusions over one simple decision. Whose to say that just cause the time is short, that the movie doesn't tell the story it needed to tell in that time?

Once again. WATCH THE MOVIE before jumping to conclusions.

As I recall jumping to conclusions has gotten people killed before....it's not as harsh here, but yeah.

It probobly wouldn't bother me as much if I didn't see how editing a movie down by Fox took out pacing and the overall plot of 2 other Marvel films(no I'm not counting Elektra...let's just pretend that didn't happen..though I've never seen the film personally...whyy the would I...I mean...did you see the trailer for that thing it was....and I'm getting off topic) so yes I am worried. I can only take Simon's word so far because truthfully I've heard it before right down to the guy who made the edits for Fox on DD. So I pray that it all works out and hearing the script was 125 pages gives me some more hope. But it bugs the **** out of me that they could have possibly gotten away with this yet again. Since so far this is the ONLY thing about X-3 that I don't like.

 

[Jennifer Walters]

Okay. Now, I take back what I said in the other thread. I misjudged you clearly. So I sir, apologize to you.

Yes, in the back of my head. I do have the worry of what happen to DD and F4, but I'm trying to keep optimistic and think ''Hey, I've not seen the movie yet.'

 

[Nell2ThaIzzay]

Well the movie wasn't edited down.

 

[FieryBalrog]

Its like they go out of their way to make the same mistakes over and over again. It doesnt make sense from any perspective. Not aesthetic, we saw how that worked out. Not profit, we saw how that worked out also.

Not one ~1:30 superhero movie has worked. The closest we got was X1, and run-time was a big problem with that movie also. And this movie has 2 times the characters and supposedly an "epic" plot (which X1 certainly didn't have).

Yeah I have the same kind of feelings. X3 is still my number one movie to see this summer and I hope it is the best of the 3 but this is disheartening to see yet another history repeating itself situation at Fox.

Yes profit. You know how much money they rake in from all of the other **** they put out??

 

[zer00]

Well the movie wasn't edited down.

And Alan Cumming was really happy at the premiere of X-2.

 

[TheVileOne]

You are the LAST person who is in any place to call someone else a "whiner", and to tell them to "settle"...

I never gave you crap about Gambit.

 

[TheVileOne]

Hey, a lot of people here haven't watched the movie but have already jumped to the conclusion that it will be a perfect, great movie and even better than the Singer ones. So . . . equivalent exchange .

 

[Nell2ThaIzzay]

And Alan Cumming was really happy at the premiere of X-2.

Ratner, Kinberg, and Penn have all said numerous times that only 1 scene was cut, a 30 second scene. Everything that they filmed will be in the movie.

 

[Nell2ThaIzzay]

Your point?

 

[freshandclean]

99% of what is being discussed on these boards is assumption. Even people who are confident about the film are basing it off of assumptions (i.e. assuming the trailer is indicitive of the film.) I have no problem with people giving reasons for why people shouldn't be worried or explaining how a shorter film doesn't necessarily mean lesser quality. That's how discussion works. But I disagree with telling people that their assumptions are stupid and tiresome, but their assumptions about how great the film will be aren't. We're all in the same boat here. No one knows the quality of the film as of yet so we're basing it on information we receive daily, and this piece of information is a negative in some people's minds.

 

[TheVileOne]

That doesn't make the production of the movie any less rushed and a train wreck that it was.

Ratner even said they barely had anything prepped before he came on.

 

[CrypticOne]

I don't really care how long the movie is, as long as it 1. Kicks a**. 2. Pyro whoops Iceman's a**. At least we know that it's longer than a hour and a half, that's fine with me.

 

[TheVileOne]

Your point?

You seem to be making a lot of how people came down on you about that which I didn't. And you seem to be making a lot about some valid concerns people have about the movie, so I think you should lay off already and let us have our concerns.

I've also heard that before...from people not affiliated with Fox just for an fyi.

So I don't believe nuddin until I see summthin
