X2

[Impactor returns 2.0]

Just watching it on ITV - Hmm, its better then X3 init.

[spiderfrommars]

Probably. But I still really enjoyed X3.

First scene of X2... maybe best opening to a superhero movie ever?

When I think about it, Christopher Nolan's a better director than Brian Singer. He's managing to reel out cool movies (The Prestige) inbetween his Batman duties.

And Memento > Usual Suspects.

Anyway, I digress.

[Best First]

i think X2 is probably technically better from a depth persepctive, but x3 is probably more fun.

i really liked X3, i think the reviewers were well off with it.

Plus X3 has Shadowcat goodness. And the Beast. And way more Collosus. And less James Marsden. And cool Prof X obliteration. And Rogue actually gets a senseible ending to her strife rather than everyone judging her as some kind of traiter every time she tries to do something about it.

Hmm, on the xmas list i think.

I bought the Xmen box set with X3 - I find that X2 is a better 'film' so to speak, it feels more complete, and the characters seem to have more depth to them. there more meat on the bones.

X3, i love the bit with Captain Picard getting blown apart, and the final sequence between Logan and Jean is one of the best I have ever seen. coupled to an amazing bit of atmospheric opera music I so love - SW return of the Jedi, Luke V vader; does the same thing.
