For anyone still curious about the upcoming DVD, you can watch one of the "alternate endings" from The Last Stand here -

Yes, of course it stars Logan. Just like the whole series did, naturally.

What a load of pointless crap! I swear, the more I see - the more I think I could have written a better script, and that's no cause I'm very talented!

Okay, you've ruined the third movie, we get it. Why ***** with the first one? They took a classic scene from x-1 and made it pale and pointless, which sums up everything about TLS. I'm surprised they didn't manage to squeeze in some SFX as well.

"I thought I heard something, could've been an animal" (Oh, the pun! Almost as witty as the 'I heard youre quite an animal/ Look who talks' line... )

"The kitchen is closed/ I just want beer."

"Going home?/ Something like that."

This is the sort of thing I expect to read in FF.net, not to see on the big screen.

Blah.

*sigh* i can't believe it......i still can't believe it.

Im too big of an X-Men fan to let this sink in and get over it.

Hopefully i'll live too see the day We Get An X-Men Return out of this.

And Bishop, Fic Update PLEASE~~~

It's coming, and I'm really sorry for the delay... I've hit a busy period at work lately. Hopefully we'll get another chapter this week.

Just so you know, the total number of chapters is probably going to be around 26. So at least we're close!

Here's what I don't understand - if the kitchen is closed, but he's willing to serve beer, that obviously implies that the BAR is OPEN. If the bar's open, why does he stand in the dark and level his shotgun when someone comes in through the door? Does he threaten to blow away ALL of his customers?

Guess it goes to show you how Kinberg and Penn are the definition of the word genius.

That scene literally made me throw up in my mouth. I'm hating Wolverine, Rothman, Penn, and Kinberg more and more each day.

True, true. What's worst imo is that the scene is completly pointless - I mean what are you trying to say by that?

The whole movie is about Wolverine acting like the leader is isn't, but then you write a scene of him leaving the X-men? (or rather - X-woman since Storm is the only one left (!)...)

And they shot Rogue taking the cure/ not taking the cure? There's to show you they had no idea what they were doing with her and why.

 

[Bastila]

Cap I love your avvy that part made me laugh in UMX lol.

 

[ntcrawler]

OK, so he goes back home to Alberta. Yay.. So what? Why should we care? What does that do to the char or the story?

The whole movie is about Wolverine acting like the leader is isn't, but then you write a scene of him leaving the X-men? (or rather - X-woman since Storm is the only one left (!)...)

Oh that's right, she's the only one left of the main team that started out in X1, isn't she? Man that must be some burden. She has to run the school, tme mansion, lead the team, and train them all by herself? That's quite some burden. I doubt this is what Halle wanted when she asked for her char to have a more "substantial" role.

It's also odd, that Wolverine feels so attached to his new family as to actually stick around, train them, act like their leader, give the kids advice, but in the end runs off anyways, at a point where his help would be needed even more.

And they shot Rogue taking the cure/ not taking the cure? There's to show you they had no idea what they were doing with her and why.

That's an interesting point. It really feels as if they had no idea what they wanted to do with the story in the first place. Especially if rumors are so true that just days before Cannes they were still debating which one to include. And furthermore, if you get to choose which ending you want for Rogue, how is that supposed to be understood in terms of storytelling? 1-2 the viewers like her being cured, the other half don't, and now they get to choose the ending? Where's the suspense and cohesiveness of it all?

Hmmm... yep. The art of offhandedness.

Cap I love your avvy that part made me laugh in UMX lol.

...You're sitting on an ejector seat, you know....

 

[triplefive]

LOL, I love it CapBeerCino. They have a lot of fun exchanges in Ultimate X-Men... and then of course there's that time Wolverine left him for dead.

Anywho.

 

[Bishop2]

Honestly, just watching it I'm not even sure what's going on. Okay, so Wolverine left the X-Men to do... what? Where IS he going?

"Going home?"
"Something like that."

Something like WHAT? You lived in a dirty trailer with a mattress on the floor. Where the hell are you going? Was this supposed to be a lead-in to his inevitable spinoff? Which is really going to be more like 'Wolverine 4,' I must add.

At least it makes more sense than the early version you can read about in the novelization and junior novel, where he leaves the team and goes back to cage fighting, making what bucks he can off of pummeling unsuspecting humans (!!!).

The whole movie is about Wolverine acting like the leader is isn't, but then you write a scene of him leaving the X-men? (or rather - X-woman since Storm is the only one left (!)...)

Well, I think by the end of it we can also safely say that Iceman, Colossus and Kitty have "graduated" into the role of X-Men. However, that still makes me laugh. Now I kind of want to see a fourth film called X-Men: X-Woman.

Blah.

stuff on FF is a lot better than what we got on screen.

Although there are some things that do make me cringe, there are also many, excellent stories that do a fantastic job of filling in the blanks, and even several feature length novels that either do fantastic alternative stories, prequels or sequels on a level that's on par with the likes of Claremont, Peter David, or Vonda McYntire.

Bishop's saga is no slouch in the writing department, and Juliebmr and NJ Borba are fantastic as well

a.k.a X-woman in name only.

i'm too lazy to hunt around so i'm just gonna ask...

did Cyclops have more screen time (or book time) in the novel than he did in the actual movie?

and if so what happened to Cyke in the novel?

HELP ME PLEASE!!!

 

[DarknessOfDeath]

To celebrate Mr Marsden's b-day. I made this manip for him and his fans.t:

Dark Cykes Enjoy!

It's exactly the same as it is in the movie. The only difference is that Cyclops clearly dies "on-screen" (so to speak) in the novel.
