The Rise and Fall of the X-Men
Posted on Tue, 14-Jun-2005
Aint it Cool has snagged a first-hand account of the forthcoming "X-Men 3",
courtesy an insider who has got his gloves on the frosty screenplay of the
next nifty money-spinner.
Based on what's said, I've gotta say, this one sounds like it's going to be
a twister-esque blow for the franchise. It so needs Bryan Singer to steer
it. If anything, it'll be mediocre to good, at best. The film will no doubt
have it's moments, but there's some untasty chunky bits to swallow too.
Among the spoilers (that's your cue to turn away now, the Caps Lock key is
too far to reach, so I'm skipping a bold warning) the report spills are :
The deaths of two major characters (one of them, Cyclops, played by James
Marsden - who will die at the hands of the resurrected Jean Grey), a
romantic sub-plot for Wovlerine and Storm, a new leader role for Storm - no
doubt streaming from Halle Berry's demands for a bigger part in the series,
a love triangle involving Rogue, Iceman and Kitty Pryde, Mystique being
transformed into a human and a note that Wolverine has jack-all to do in
this film.
"Wolverine feels like he's been neutered (or is it just pussy-whipped by
Storm?), and really doesn't do much except hang out with Storm the whole
time - not the best use of the most well-known X-Man around", says the
scooper.

"Is this a case of your equipment malfunctioning? Have you been suffering
from some premature pyro? Hey Silent Bob, you can say anything anytime.
Hello? Maybe I'll just bring Lita down right now. I have a better idea. Why
don't I buy you a box of Kleenex, a carton of Hagan Daz. I'll take you to
Blockbuster Video then you can rent the Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya
Sisterhood. Go home and have a really good cry. What do you think about
that, Junior? "
