Isn't she in the second movie briefly?

Jubilee?

Can't remember.

No, Kitty. During the raid on the school.

She was, but she's played by a different actress (Katie Stuart).

Watching the extras and I find it interesting that Singer wanted it to not be like a comic book movie at all and also didn't want the actors to study the characters from the comics to learn their personalities.

Nightcrawler in the White House is one of the best scenes in a superhero movie ever.

We then move onto a scene where the Phoenix is somewhat foreshadowed, but this plot is ruined in the sequel so let's forget about it.

Pyro and Iceman don't like each other, how odd.

Storm learned to speak fluent English in the weeks that past since the last movie. How nice.

Cyclops was being a douche to Logan, but it was warranted and in-character, so I'll let it slide.

I like Stryker's computer full of juicy easter eggs.

Scott got to kick some goon's ass before he jobbed to Lady Deathstrike so that she can Wolvie's cool enemy later on.

Storm had an accent?

A really bad and really ambiguous one, in the first movie.

What's on Stryker's computer screen?

Will you watch X-Men Origins? I thought that one is more enjoyable than X-Men 3

The whole invasion is just insanely great. Kitty #2 shows up and leabes, Siryn cameo, Colossus cameo. Wolvie is a badass.

Also, the Dutch subs use Wolverine instead of Wolfman. Yay.

A multitude of mutants, both know (Maximoff siblings, Gambit) and unknown (Danielle Moonstar, Karma), as well as stuff like Omega Red and Franklin Richards.

Origins is a complete abomination with nothing redeemable in it aside from Jackman and Schreiber. At least X3 had a great cast and Kitty Pryde.

Between the motorcycle with turbo jets and the sports wagon, Cyclops has some good taste in vehicles.

Makes me wish I have my motorcycle driving license, I didn't even have a learner's permit

I think all the X men movies are good. Origins Wolverine had good action

Magneto's escape from prison is just so... classy.

The scenes at Bobby's house were a bit too MUTANT = GAY metaphor, but they were still well done. Pyro going insane was also cool.

Jean overdoes it on the telekinesis and here eyes become flames for a second, but screw that, it's all because she's a schizo!!

Magneto and Mystique giggling about on the X-jet is hilarious.

Pyro becomes evil?! Never saw that coming!

Jubilee was stuck in a prison cell, I say good fucking riddance.

Jean burns up in a pillar of Phoenix shaped fire but who gives a shit, she's a schizo.

Yeah, Kitty totally stole valuable government documents like a total ninja!

...offscreen.

Wow.. the ending... what was happening in that sea.. man I can't wait what Bryan Singer is going to do with the plot threads he left dangling... what? He's not involved? ...who's Brett Ratner?

didn't David Hayter do something for these movies? written some stuff or produced or whatever
