Xmen 3 trailer (the one that was on tv last night)

Post by **Jackal** » Wed Mar 08, 2006 2:43 pm

The thing is that Juggernaut needs to be CGI. He's easily the size of the Hulk. He's supposed to be able to practically palm Wolverine.

Exactly.

i just hope it doesnt suck.
I'm done getting worked up about the different x-men, they messed up rouge from day one so I just kinda take it how it comes

I'll bet dollars to dimes that Juggernaut will be a mutant in this movie and that Rogue will get her super strength from him.

I wasn't aware you could mess up a color.

I bet you're right. I'm more bent about Juggernaut looking like a normal human than that though. If they made him the badass he's supposed to be, I could probably overlook the fact they screwed up his origins.

We need Gambit on the scene

Post by **Jackal** » Wed Mar 08, 2006 7:34 pm

Gambit is the lamest X-man ever

Post by **R00k** » Wed Mar 08, 2006 7:57 pm

I kinda liked gambit's abilities, but the character himself was pretty lame.

There will be word of a mutant cure, Beast will be torn between being true to himself and fixing his appearance.
Cyclops will go back to Alkali Lake (he will be all disheveled and pissed off) but Phoenix will suddenly rise. Yay, we're all happy. Cyclops and Phoenix will kiss and she will accidentally fry him on the spot. Wolverine will then show up and take her in. Meanwhile the Brotherhood will attack the government, releasing all the bad mutants they need for their war. This will prompt the government to use the powers of this young boy (Leech) in order to take away (cure) the mutants.
This will piss off the Brotherhood.
Meanwhile Jean will find out Prof. X has placed mental blocks in her mind in order to control her powers. This will piss off Jean and she will go fight on the side of the brotherhood.
They're saying the final battle will be in a suburban neighborhood so I'm betting Jean will go visit her family and probably accidentally kill them. She will also fight Prof X at this point (im betting it will be a fight on the astral plane where Prof X will be able to walk).
Eventually Jean will see the error of her ways and either A) Kill herself or B) Kill Magneto or C) Fly off into space.
Oh yeah, and Iceman and Kitty will hook up, and I bet Colossus will be gay.

i though that dark phoenix wasn't jean grey at all?

Gambit's power was cool, but the character was lame. A deck of cards? Gimme a break.

The Phoenix Force is an extraterrestrial entity that bonded itself to Jean Grey. So she's still Jean but also the Phoenix at the same time.

Hmm, it's only a trailer, but I get the feeling it's not going to be of the same standard as XMen2.

juggernaut looks fucking gay

Post by **R00k** » Wed Mar 08, 2006 11:54 pm

I'm telling you guys, he's Ram-Man from the He Man cartoons:

Seriously.

lol they should have had that Markus Ruhl dude play juggernaut.

Post by **Quadhore** » Thu Mar 09, 2006 12:22 am

Any reason why he wasn't made in CG? Obviously it can't be budget restraints, so I wonder what the real reason is. He looks crap in human form. He literally just looks like a guy in a juggernaut suit.

Post by **Jackal** » Thu Mar 09, 2006 12:33 am

I bet it was totally budget constraints. When you consider how many actors they're paying it makes perfect sense.

Post by **Quadhore** » Thu Mar 09, 2006 12:52 am

I would've thought a film like x3 would have no upper limit on how much can be spent. They do have some pretty good talent for the genre, though, so maybe you're right. That being said, just because there's a reason doesn't mean there's an excuse. He should never have been played by a human

Vinnie Jones for one. Don't get me wrong, I love the guy, but I'm sure his salary could have paid for a little ILM work.
