X3 and incaseshithappens
May. 30th, 2006 07:59 am Upon second viewing, X3 ups the enjoyability factor, but the game of spot the cameos is still pretty much a lost cause. I found Psylocke and felt like a complete idiot for missing her, sort of. I'm assuming she's the purple haired [again, only sort of] chick running around for part of the movie. I swear, the first time I saw the damn thing, I thought she was only in one scene. So... yeah. I'm guessing on Siryn, but where the bluefuzzy is Jubilee? The only place I can think of is the class Xavier is teaching.
Even the comic geek next to me was no help. He couldn't find Betsy.
Other things that I may have forgotten in the previous rant or just need to be asked again:
1) Other than needing his last name and the money that comes with it, why bother putting Angel in the movie?
2) When Mags does his super impressive building bridges trick, why the blue fuzzy doesn't the bridge crumble into the sea after it's all said and done? It's not even trying to pretend there are supports underneath it.
3) Why does it take the big bad mutant army until well after sundown to walk what, thirty feet? Why?
I still prefer most of the badguys to the actual X-men this go round, which is odd because comic wise, we love everyone actually left on the team, and two of them are one of my favorite former couples. Yet movie wise? Meh.
I do not want to fall off the wagon totally. I do not. I do not need to indulge the comic book addiction. Unless it's filling in the holes on the stuff I already own. That's entirely different. Right?
Last night, in a fit of boredom and the realization that sometime this century his new wig will arrive, I pried that monstrosity off MJ's head. He's now sort of bald. Sort of because his wig was heavily glued right at the very edges, which extend past where you'd kind of expect them to. Which meant the screwdriver? Useless. I just had to pull until it tore away at the glue and then, bam, he's got a crop circle of tufty hair left. Not really a good look.
Hmm. Mail that might come sometime this week:
- Nahh-ato
- Kstarr Wig
- Charmed crack
I can't tell if the room smells funky or if it was the booklet I borrowed from someone about the joys of the Medical Coverage in Hell. I have no idea why I'd bother with it except it might be usefull if I need to go to the hospital. :p Anything I might find important [like dental or vision] is, as far as I can tell, only included if you need them to saw into your jaw or cut your eyes out.
