should singer do a remake.

[AznBABYBANDIT]

Only few muties can ever stop her... Logan is only one thats really introduced... so...

 

[Coreo]

I would love for Singer to do a remake. I really liked the idea of him shooting
X3 & X4 back to back. If he would have directed, I don't think there would have been as much action. He's really good with the dialog and drama. I know one thing, we sure as hell would have seen the Phoenix firebird effect.

 

[AznBABYBANDIT]

Nope you won't... Fox thought that's waste of cash...

there'd be no Halle Stormy

 

[The Ones]

I would rather have good story telling and plot over action anyday. I only like action when its to do with the plot instead of the action scene that was X-3. Story>Action

 

[*xmenfan*]

Yes. I voted for yes because i think he could do a better X3.

 

[Obsidian]

I must be the only one who see's that other than Jean sacrificing herself, Logan is the only one who'd be able to kill her. I did like the concept of this in X3, though it should have been done differently.(Actually of X3 should have been done differently)

I'd prefer it if Jean did not die because her dying in X3 was pretty redundant. It would've been better if she had been stabbed with the cure.

 

[Obsidian]

And since when is that a bad thing?

 

[AznBABYBANDIT]

Halle really showed a nice Storm. A true leadershiped Storm ( BRETT DOES NOT LIKE HER or was it the other way round )

You saw how she demolourcrized the darts?

 

[Obsidian]

Leadershipped Storm? Far from it. More like a excessively talkative, selfish character who doesn't value the opinions of others.

I would prefer she lives too, but Fox was going to kill her no matter who directed; Whether she killed herself or someone else killed her.

Halle didn't show a nice Storm. She didn't show any Storm. She showed a mutant with grey hair and an attitude. I don't know if Brett likes Storm but some Storm fans said that Singer hated Storm, though in interviews he says she's a favorite of his. And Storm didn't demolecularize anything.

 

[AznBABYBANDIT]

>_> she really played the film well, and yes Singer didnt't like her

The real Storm would not get her panties in a bunch over the Cure or refer to people who decide to take it as cowards.

 

[AznBABYBANDIT]

Still, she acted well, and she might ( she knows bout fogot the word ... oh yes predujice ) and it's why cure is invented

 

[Majik1387]

^If I were you, I'd start reading the comics with Storm if you think that's how she is.

 

[ntcrawler]

And therein lies the problem. They had a checklist of characters that needed to be wiped out or die. And they then wrote the film around this checklist, so that no matter how unlikely or preposterous, the end result would be those characters dying or being wiped out. That is NOT a good example of suspenseful storytelling. A 80's hack and slash film? Yes. But not a suspense thriller that this was supposed to be. Killing off characters for the sake of cheap drama or to complete the studio's checklist in order to dead-end a story arc or open up possibilities for new cast members is not good storytelling. I've said this before, but when you eliminate 1/2 the cast in 3 movies, it becomes a disturbing trend. At this rate, they can only make about 2 more movies before they run out of cast members to film.

It's exactly how she is. Intolerant, opinionated, with fairly fixed black and white views of the world (due in part to an upbringing in a third world setting where society is simpler and thus laws and values are not as complex).

True she is intolerant, but she is not b!tchy with her intolerance. Opinionated yes, but she doesn't put down other's opinions when stating hers. And Storm does not have black and white views of the world, she see's grey.(Hate the color metaphors but you know what I mean)

 

[Slim_X]

I'd be cool if Singer did his version of X3. Then Ratner could start a new trilogy with one team, and Singer do another trilogy with another team up:

I wouldn't have said she was ever 'b!tchy' in the movies. She has largely been the same in all three movies, just more outspoken in X3. She rebuked Wolverine in X1 ('At least I've chosen a side') and she continued along that line in X3.

The X-Men's role is to aim for peaceful co-existence and teach the students acceptance of themselves. Her reaction to news of the cure was very typical, very 'black and white' - 'We're not a disease' - and that's a pretty good way to look at it. She wants Rogue to accept herself for who she is, not chase after something (at the time unproven) that might give false hope.

In the comics, I remember Storm not wanting Rogue to join the team because of past events. It was very intolerant, very black and white.

I wouldn't have said she saw 'grey' at all. What instances do you have of this kind of attitude?

I agree in the first two X-Men movies, she wasn't a b!tch. In the second one she was more opinionated when talking to Nightcrawler in the X-Jet. Her line about sides from X1 doesn't even compare to her character in X3. Her interrupting the Prof to Rogue, her telling rogue about the x-gene not being a disease, her talking to Logan in his room when he's about to leave for Jean, and even her line whe she asks Logan if he's ready to do what he needs to do all had a b!tchy vibe.
I understand if she felt a certain way about the "cure" for mutantcy but the way it was executed was terrible for Storm. She does not talk down other's opinions to state her own.

 

[Nell2ThaIzzay]

There's no need for a remake.

The movie would have been amazing if it just slowed down a little bit and paced itself better. As was, I still thought it was a great movie.

Would have been perfect had they paced it better, and showed a bit more faithfulness to the source material (Cyclops)...

But overall, I still highly enjoy X-Men: The Last Stand.

It's better than X-Men. Is better in certain areas than X2, although on the whole, X2 is the better movie.

 

[Majik1387]

I think everyone needs to watch the first two X-Men movies again before they say X3 is better than X1 & X2. IMO X1 extremely surpasses X3 as an X-movie.

I don't get that vibe at all from comic book Storm.

The comic book Storm I know is the Storm who believes in Gambit all the way, despite his terrible past, and the fact that he never feels that he can make up for it. She's the only one who is in his corner who does believe that he has made up for his sins. She is the one who backs him every step of the way.

The comic book Storm I know is the one who would defend her family and friends at any cost, as she's done numerous times against Bishop, for Kitty Pryde, against the Morlocks to save Angel, etc... etc... not give up on Jean because "she made her choice"...

Halle Berry's acting aside (as I don't think she gave great performances in any of the 3 movies), that was NOT Storm in any of the movies, aside from powers. And that is the fault of the creative teams. They didn't get Storm down properly.

The only thing "better" in X-Men: The Last Stand about the character was that she actually kicked some ass this time around, and flew. But that still wasn't Storm from the comics.

I just rewatched them last week again and that's how I felt too. It's sad and comforting at the same time. In X1 and X2, the characters, their actions, it just... "works", I can't put it any better than that. Things just feel right. The pacing, the music, the tone also fit in better and match the scenes and what the characters are doing. Alot of that falls apart in X3, like a poorly assembled jigsaw puzzle. Both X1 and X2 give you a sense of danger and suspense but also a sense of hope that X3 lacks. X3 instead has this sense of dread and doom.

Trust me, I don't need to rewatch any of them, I know all 3 movies like the back of my hand.

X-Men is a great movie, but I feel that both X2, and X-Men: The Last Stand went above and beyond the 1st one.
