I would love to do a re-edit of this film. I loved the first two films, but thought the second one focued too much on action and didn't really payoff on what had been built up. Not to mention the pointless death of Scott. I'm not against the killing of characters and thought the Xavier scene worked well narritively, but Scott's death was a joke.

The real question on my mind is whether the film can be salvaged with these. Most of the ones I've seen don't really help. The Golden Gate shot sound's intrigueing. I thought it was ridiculous in the film that one shot is dusk, the next, which seems mere minutes later is dead of night.

The Magneto/Jean scenes look promising. As does the voices in the Xavier scene. The Rogue scenes might help too.

It makes me wonder if one could cut Cyclops' death out altogether. Maybe just have him leaving. It's been a while so I can't remember.

I'm not even sure if I'm getting this. I know my sister absolutely hated the film. Before I saw it she called me in tears about it. I know when i saw it I kinda just freaked out over it. I wish I had a recording of it. I didn't outright hate it, but I knew several things didn't work for me.

I'll see if mom'll pick it up as well tomorrow. If so, i may attempt something. No promises though.
