Im tired of always seeing negative topics pop up first. You can find fault in any movie you watch.

What made you laugh? Happy? just scream out in a inner fanboy roar in the film?

What did you like...
 
Wade!

Opening credits...Rivals Watchmen's!
 
The credits.



Heh.

Just the opening credits. I liked the fight scene between Gambit and Wolvie...and I mean the scene from where he says "Nice stick" until he gets on the ladder.
 
Wade coming out of the elevator :cool: :up:
 
This is my favorite thread title on this forum ever. :up:

What rocked my socks off was that despite the fact that I found out tons of spoilers from the film (even though I never watched the leaked version) and was totally braced for disappointment after the critical thrashing the movie got...that I wound up absolutely loving it and that it wasn't nearly as spoiled for me as I was afraid it was.

Yes, I acknowledge that it had cheesy moments and plot holes big enough to drive a truck through, and that quite a few moments horrifically strayed from the comics...but regardless, I thought it was light years better than X3 and a thoroughly enjoyable film that I will definitely be seeing again.

And that rocked my socks off. :up:
 
Liev was great ..creepy and intimidating . The fight with Logan at the bar was awesome.

The Gambit scene in New Orleans . I loved every bit of it.

The fight at the end with Weapon X1 was really cool.

Xavier's cameo

Cyclops at the school.

Superman's parents , lol.

Agent Zero.... who doesn't get much mention

Sabretooth asking Stryker for adamantium

Hugh Jackman had some funny lines

Wade in the first mission ..perfect.
 
Superman's parents , lol.

LOL...as we were leaving my dad said "Even Ma and Pa Kent were in it!"

I loved the little clicking noise Wolverine made when he told Zero to get back in the car. That got a big laugh from the audience.
 
Gambit blowing up the alley. Definitely an "OH SH--" moment.

Cyclops and Emma taking out the guards. Got a little fanboy giddyness from seeing them on the screen together for the first time.

Bolt's death. Very well done scene.
 
Thanks so much for making this thread!!
And what rocked my socks... was Gambit, OF COURSE! Dang, I love him since I was 11 years old and got obssesed with him in TAS. I prayed for him to be in one of the X-Men movies, starting 10 years ago; didn't happen. 14 months ago I found out Gambit would be in the movie, played by Taylor. 9 months ago I saw the comic con trailer and almost had a heart attack when I saw him. How could I not have my socks rocked off from here to Nepal, after this movie?
The casino scene... i could watch it every day of my life from now on. "Do I owe you money?" Priceless. The fight in the alley was awesome too, the staff, the smirk on his face. I loved that they brought him back later on, to help Logan.
GAMBIT ROCKED, ROCKS, AND WILL ROCK MY SOCKS FOREVER. Period.
And yes, I'm a fangirlie.
 
I liked that Wolverine could actually win fights in this movie. Usually when he fights someone that isn't human and actually has a decent power, he gets his ass handed to him.

I liked that when Wolverine got the adamantium it actually did give him an advantage over Sabretooth. In the comics it really doesn't make sense that Wolverine and Sabretooth are equals when Wolverine should be able to slice him to pieces, healing factor or not.

I loved when Will.I.am...I mean Wraith died.

I liked the ending fight with Deadpool...except for when Wolverine deflected the beam back.
 
I like how...Logan has a "better" healing factor than Creed...And is the only one who could withstand that process...!
 
I like the image of Wolverine turning his back on the team and it shows them standing there ..then it pans out. It also worked well when they tied it into his flashbacks.
 
I think the opening credits were amazing, I gotta say the transition between WWI to WWII gave me chills almost. The music and Logan looking back at the kid with the cigar in his mouth especially. Pretty amazing to me when you think about D-Day in general.
 
I'm probably going to be assassinated for this - but I liked these opening credits better than Watchmen's. (and don't get me wrong, I loved the opening credits of Watchmen!)
 
Wade!

Opening credits...Rivals Watchmen's!

Did no one read this...?!?!

I would like to take credit for saying this first...Can't anyone say..."Yeah, I agree with Ziggy"?
 
Ah man, so many great moments in this movie that made me react accordingly.

Everything evil that Sabretooth did. The scene between him and John Wraith especially. Then his scene with Dominic in his trailer. Annnd when he threw Wolverine right in front of a car and dropped all of the logs onto him. He's a bastard who knows just how much his brother can take yet in the end he'll protect him if someone else tries to kill him. Brotherly love.

Seeing Emma in diamond form was awesome. Pretty unique take on that.

The scene with Wade reflecting all of the bullets was great of course, that along with his back and forth with Victor.

Wolverine getting the claws and going badass on Sabes.

Him also being able to cut through all the mutant chambers without looking or killing one of them.

Cyclops killing a few of the guards.

The blob being hilarious the entire movie.

Seeing Gambit and Wolverine at the same time.

Deadpool making Nightcrawler seem like a slow teleporter. I mean he mastered that jank jank and used it to its best.

I felt safe saying it once you said it!

Idk about that...in fact I strongly disagree with that.

I did like the opening credits though. I loved what little Ryan was as Wade Wilson. I loved Liev as Victor, Taylor as Gambit although not so much what Gambit did or was used for, and I liked Will.i.am as Wraith.

Agreed...But really, you liked Will...

...I thought he was just okay...Not as good as Common, Ice Cube or Mos Def...Hehehe...
 
deadpool's teleporting seems to be instantaneus (sp?)
while nightcrawler's was "BAMF!" [a second later-] "BAMF!", so it takes some time for him to do it, i believe in the comics, it is instantaneus

ok what i liked about the movie, prolly all said before in the above posts, but
QUICKSILVER!!! man, he was cool! i sat up straight in my seat when he appeared!
 
I liked Will.i.am because he was surprisingly better than I thought he would be. I thought he would suck it up but he didn't so:up:
 
I was surprised at how not bad will.i.am was.
