They could have just taken a boat you know. No real need for the destruction of the bridge. I guess no land reinforcements can come that way.

When i really look at this movie it really really sucks hard. Most of the plot is paper thin, and any minor hole is left open for the entire world to see.The guy who directed it is a total hack who couldn't tell a plot hole for his ass hole.
Finally, I have seen the movie. It was good, but not good enough for an X-Men movie. The whole idea of a cure was stupid. They should just have stuck with the idea with the Sentinels and include all the famous mutants such as Gambit, Quicksilver, Scarlet Witch and etc..
Was it me or does Arclight looks like Michael Jackson....
and Warren was good looking too bad he didnt do anything except of jumping out of nowhere and flying...
Plus, what was the thing with the scene after the credits. I have not seen it since it wasnt on the torrent I downloaded. What happened?
Yea, I really want to know what happened at the end of the credits. I hear Xavier returns. That would be awesome cause the movie would be nothing without Charles Xavier. And Halle Berry...Damn! Good thing she asked to have a bigger role.
ya someone please either expain in FULL detail what happens after the credits, or post a link to the actual scene if one exists.
I didn't come into this thread for 3 days for fear of spoilers.....if only i had risked checking it out i would've known about the ending part .
anyway, all those people who are complainign about the pheonix, you have to realize that its impossible for them to follow the actualy pheonix story cuz its just WAAAAAYYY too hard to cover in 2 hours. I think they did a pretty good job of explaining her powers and the idea of the pheonix without having to use the original sotryline.
I am disappointed that we didn't see an actual flamming bird or something though. I was hoping jean would go crazy, fly up into the air, scream and be covered in flames shaped like a bird. Still, the scene with her on fire as logan tried to stop her was pretty well done. The flamming hair thing look absolutely beautiful.
Now, Juggernaut.....seriously wtf. i mean i can stand the gay looking cement helmet, i can stand the fact that they took away his super strength (he should've been able to break lose from that stupid holding cell) for some wierd momentum based power, i can even stant the fact that they didn't even hint at a connection with chalres xavier......BUT HIS FUCKING ACCENT!!! WHAT THE HELL!
Other than that i think the movie was pretty well done. Definately better then the first two. The action scenes were superb, and if you ignore the fact that they didn't stay true to the comics (which is understandable...its like an alternate universe, and it happes enough times in comics/series), then the movie was actually pretty good. You didn't have to be a hardcore fan to enjoy it or understand it, and i think thats why most people here (who seem to be hardcore fans) are disappointed. But you have to rememeber they're trying to cater to a general audience, not just the normal fans.
Ofcourse, stuff like angel not doing anyhitng, and shadowcat suddenly being introduced, complete with a love story was kinda annoying. But atleast we got to see a whole bunch of mutants going at each other, which is what the first two movies lacked.
All in all it was reasonably well done, and i'd even pay to see it again.
Oh, and before i finish, let me just say, i LOVED how they even showed the danger room trainign session with the sentinels. that was really awesome. I hope the next movie is based on the sentinnels.
After credits spoiler:
After the credits, you see a hospital room scene, where a woman walks into the room and the man in the bed calls out to her....then she responds, saying, "Charles?"
.....and that's it.
From what I've been told, this scene was foreshadowed from the earlier scene where charles is teaching the classroom about some vegetable guy and the ability to transfer one's mind into another body. Supposedly just before he dies against the phoenix, he transferred his mind into some other body in a hospital room.

Three movies and still no Gambit, yet we get every other mutant from the X-Men universe. I think the only part about this movie that I liked was the Danger Room in the beginning. Phoenix killing Scott in the beginning was awful, he deserved to atleast go out in battle not to be killed like cannon fodder while hugging some ugly chick.
I was expecting Juggernaut to say something bout his powers being magical when he was in the room with Leech but of course not they had to turn him into a mutant. Why couldn't he have been KO'd by Colossus(Did he even say a word this movie).
After credits(Spoiler)
Remember when Charles was teaching his class he put on a video of Moira and a mindless patient and asked would it be ethical to put another persons conscious into his body if they were sick? At the end of the movie it shows Moira's lab followed by
Moira-Good morning.
Charles voice-Hello Moira.
Moira-Charles
That's about as detailed as I can get.

That's what I read about Gambit. People keep mentioning him, so...Originally Posted by Raven

when I say it's a schpadoinkle day
omg, that's so lame.
1. Who the hell is even that Josh guy? There must be a million people who can act as Gambit equally good (or better of course).
2. WHO WOULD DECLINE THE ROLE AS -GAMBIT- FOR -LOST- ?!
Damn I hate that show
lol ya...stupid bastard. Im kinda glad he turned it down, he doesn't really look like gambit.
Im also sorta glad gambit wasn't in this movie, what with all the other mutants he probably wouldn't have enough screen time. Theres pretty strong possibility of another movie comming out, and im really hoping they'll put gambit in that one, and make him a major character.
btw, thanx for the after credit info guys.
Watched it, not to bad. They could have done a lot better though. Again, the messed up plenty of mutants by displaying them as something else. Best part was this random asian guy who couldn't believe the Golden Gate Bridge was being torn apart:
Thanks for telling the us the scene after the credits.
But I dont understand why did they add that scene. I see two options for that:
1- They try to add a happy ending that Charles survived?
2- They are telling us that a X-Men 4 coming in few years...
i would say option 2, and heres why.
1. economically speaking, its in thier best interest of make more x-men movies
2. they also showed magneto getting his powers back, implying that the cure wasn't as permenant as they had hoped. this also means that mystique and rogue would get thier powers back as well.
3. if you've seen any of those interview with the cast on some of the late night talk shows, some of them (famke jensen from what i remember atleast) said that even though this one was called 'the last stand', there was going to be another movie. Granted, thats not official confirmation, but its a good sign.
They might have been referring to the "Magneto" and "Wolverine" spinoff movies (both prequels) that have been more or less confirmed. I don't think there will be an X4.
<@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs
Bah, my problem isnt the acutal pheonix itself, but the way the X-men handled the situation. In the movie, gene is just a lv. 5 mutant, so you could do something like this:
kid who can deflect powers -------> Wolverine ------> Jean
Then
Wolverine (throws Kid)------------------------> Jean
The kid supresses her powers. Badda bing, badda boom! Jean gets one of those shots and everyone lives happily ever after except for pyro. Hes a fag
The kid's name is Leech.
For those who didnt know, rumor has it(seems true to me) that the reason Juggernaut says the line "Im the Juggernaut, Bitch!" in X3 is this video. All of my friends laughed really hard when he said that and I asked them afterwards, and they pointed out that video to me.
first of all, can someone please post a link that isn't youtube....cuz it wont let you see it unless you're 18+ and you have to login as proff...i dont wanna sign up just for that.
im pretty sure her exact words were "there will be a 4th movie"...or something pretty close. im 100% sure she said '4th movie' atleast. thats why i think she wasn't referring to the prequels.They might have been referring to the "Magneto" and "Wolverine" spinoff movies (both prequels) that have been more or less confirmed. I don't think there will be an X4.
and God#2, if they did that there would be no movie....thats about 34 different ways they could've had a peaceful resolution but then it wouldn't make for a very good movie.
besides, if you think about it, jean's a psychic....if you throw the kid at her, she'll probably kill him in mid air before he even gets close. rememebr what she did to those darts the army guys fired at her? and they were moving alot faster then the kid would have.
If Wolverine was close enough to stab her with his claws, he was definatly close enough to inject her with one of those needles ling on the ground.
I would say there will be another movie.
I didn't think that they would be stopping with 3 movies.
Magneto getting his powers back and Charles being back.
Magneto and Wolverine are so badass!
