I sure hope it’s better than the last movie. Yeesh!

The X-Men movies. All of them.
X-Men was very good, but the out of nowhere Wolverine/Cyclops rivalry comes out of nowhere and isn’t interesting. Halle Berry was terrible. Famke Janssen and James Marsden did well with what they had, but that wasn’t much. Hugh Jackman did a great job, as did Patrick Stuart and Ian McKellan. Overall, 7.5/10.
X2 was much better. I liked that the younger characters were developed and not annoying. Pyro’s transformation was pretty good. I liked the Wolverine had no qualms with leaving Stryker for dead, and Famke Janssen had more to work with. Really enjoyed it, one of the best Marvel films, 8.5/10.
X-Men: The Last Stand was pretty bad. The deaths of Cyclops and Charles felt like cop outs, and most of the side characters are barely realised at all. Jean was extremely boring, and felt really generic. The final battle was boring, for instance 6 good guys fighting 100 bad guys is really stupid. Also, why do these people who barely know Erik die for him? In fact, who are these people? I did like the opening scene, and the acting was alright, so I’ll give it a 4.5/10.
X-Men Origins: Wolverine was absolute crap. Nothing good, except the opening montage. 1.5/10.
X-Men First Class was good. Not great. The script was very cheesy, and the acting was, for the most part, subpar. Had some good scenes, and James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender were both fantastic. 7/10.
The Wolverine is criminally underrated, in my opinion. I liked the development of Wolverine, and the interactions he has with the other characters. Action scenes were fantastic. The villain was cliche though. 8.5/10.
Days of Future Past was good. Had no real standout scenes, except for the “Time in a Bottle” scene. Good acting. Mystique was annoying, and I am really sick of Jennifer Lawrences performance of her. The ending undermined X-Men Apocalypse. 7/10.
Overall the movies are pretty good. Much better than the MCU, for sure.
I honestly wish there was a despecialized edition of the PT out there. Watching this
in motion and with accompanying dialogue would send my sides splitting wide open.
If only they had kept the arms and body and just CGI’d the head, then Jar Jar would have at least looked real.
Does this mean you hate the awesome speech at the end of Kill Bill Vol. 2?
do you ever use puncuation marks and capital letters in your sentences

I’ll have to check it out now.
Suffice it to say, out of the Reeve films, I only like Superman III.
Would you mind expaining why? I’m not judging you, I haven’t even seen it, I just want to know how you think it’s good whilst disliking 1 and 2.
I think that Man of Steel excellently captured what would really happen if two super powered beings went head to head, if neither of them gave a crap how much damage they made. That’s probably my biggest issue with the film. I also don’t like the jumpy nature and the lack of actual character development for adult Clark. I like the film, but it definitely has flaws. Zod’s death was also avoidable.
Point taken. I’ve changed it to something way less cool.
Besides, it’s not scary, just goofy!
Get the moderators to actually delete the Off-Topic thread?
Which one?
Also, change your fucking avatar before you give my little girls nightmares.
But…I like this one!
ET is a jedi?
That is now canon for me.
This thread is awesome. Goes to show that ROTS is bad even by kids standards.
bummer, bossk.
I was two when this was posted.
LuckyGungan’s Lil Wayne avatars just keep getting uglier and uglier.
Huh?

Thats weird. I wonder why my new avatar isn’t showing.
LuckyGungan2001 what’s your avatar pic from?
My current one? It’s from a film I watched recently called Attack the Block, where the secondary antagonist gets his nose bitten off. It was a great film, I would highly recommend it. My previous avater was the Predalien from Aliens vs Predator: Requiem, which, apart from the design of the Predalien, is awful, and I wouldn’t make anyone watch it.
I’ve missed something.
Like the first post in this thread?
Yep
I’d go with Kerr’s for episode III. I think that the way he has edited it actually makes me feel sympathy with Anakin, and elevates the film to the best of the prequels. The film is still average, but now at least it isn’t boring.
As a film: 6.5/10
As an edit: 8.5/10What’s your favorite edit of ep 1 and ep 2?
Magnoliafan’s
The best order to view is 6, 2, 1, 4, 3, 7, 5. Works everytime.
I liked it so much that I changed my avatar.
Attack the Block. Nice little indie film with John Boyega. Very good all around. Extremely underrated IMO, seriously, only 6.6 IMDb? I think that apart from developing Moses’s backstory a bit more, it was pretty awesome. Some people say that the characters are unrelatable because they mug people, but I think that their characters become pretty sympathetic after that scene. Extremely good. 9/10.
