Just got in from seeing it with my girlfriend and my father, and all I can say is that this is a high contender for the best movie I've seen so far this year. I can't wait for X3. And this is coming from a guy who's never read an X-Men comic in his life and generally isn't too keen on Marvel. Anyone who hasn't seen it yet should go tomorrow.

Yeah, I know they mentioned Remy, and Hank, but didn't show him. And that was what I meant. Gambit was supposed to be a major role in the first 2 films, but the script was changed for each.

http://us.imdb.com/Credits?0290334

The second to last cast credit is for Gambit, yet he wasn't shown. I'm thinking deleted scene. Maybe it was too violent (Though Wolverine's stuff should have been more so), with cards blowing the hell out of Stryker's military crew.

James Bamford (Bamf!) is a stunt guy in a bunch of flicks and TV shows, X-Files, Disturbing Behavior (Hm, Gambit and Cyclops worked together before...).

The DVD is gonna kick so much. Can't be worse than the X-Men DVD, (Not the X1.5 one, that was ok...).

Nightcrawler is a badass, yet really good at the comic relief in this movie. He always tries to give his long introduction, but always gets cut off.

Something I noticed: When Storm and Jean are in the church with Nightcrawler, helping him with his wounds. The posters all around are circus posters about him. One of them is a close up of the Ultimate X-Men Nightcrawler, with the "Smoking" mouth and eyes. And another poster is an exact cover of the first Ultimate XM he was in, the one with the shaded Nightcrawler and yellow smoke around him, just after a Bamf teleport.

Ray Parks is signed on for X3, and even had a miniposter for X2. He WAS one of the Stryker Crew, like I said before:

http://superherohype.com/cgi-bin/ima...jpg&img=27&tt=

And did anyone notice Iceman's suit? He got the best of them all. Black with the white lines, but the X's on each shoulder are icicle-reminiscant.

Their going to have to me thinks. The ending of the movie, the sub-plot with Jean getting stronger...

Although I have a friend who thinks they can't get Phenoix with out going in to space because thats what happend in the comics. .

True, it did happen in space. But then again Angel, Beast, Cyclops, Jean, Iceman were the original X-Men in the comics, added by the "New" X-Men: Wolverine, Storm, Collossus, Thunderbird, Firestar, Nightcrawler. So they did that differently.

And Mystique is Rogue and Nightcrawler's mother, yet they didn't touch on that, in either films. There's more, but they make it work, I seriously doubt they'd pull X3 into space just for the Pheonix saga.

They might be able to touch on Rouge, Nightcrawler and Mystiques past as well. X2 was good at carying on a few story lines (pryo going bad, beginings of Phenoix {started in X1 supposedly with Jean and her Cerebro experiance}, along with wolverines past and Bobby's past.)

Then again it could also become distracting... but it could leave way for X4 as well (Rouge getting her flight possibly?)

I doubt they will do anything with Mystique being Rogue's mother. Mystique adopted Rogue at a young age but in the first movie Rogue is living with a different family.

I hope they don't do the flying Rogue thing. That'd look horrible.

I thought that gaurd guy looked like Ray Park! When I first say the preview, like months ago, I actually thought that guy was Toad! I hope he returns for X3. Though I hear singer wants to do other things first. Anyway, great movie. Best comic book movie yet, IMO.

Possible Spoliers:

I saw the movie today. It was great! I actually liked it better than the first. I loved the referneces and spots by other X-men to be. Jubille, Shadowcat, Gambit, Beast. I think that was all. The Phoenix plot at the end was totally unexpected. WOW!
The only downside to the movie was Lady Deathstrike, I didn't like the way she was portayed, hopefully in the next movie we will see her brought back to life as a cyborg like in the comics. Also, where is Wolvy's cowboy hat? He had the huge belt buckle, but the hat is a must have! I can also live with Stryker being the man who fused wolverines bones, although this is different in the comics. And Rogue not being able to fly. Still a great movie for X-Men fans and people who just like seeing a great movie! It was well worth my $3.75!
