Kelsey Grammer's been cast to play Hank McCoy aka Beast.
Masterful casting imo.

That's a pretty cool choice. Beast is a brainy well spoken furball.

"And movie three features Angel, Beast, Kitty Pryde and Juggernaut"

I hope they choose well casting for Kitty Pryde. Great character but is supposed to look rather normal. If they get some breast enhanced woman with a plastic face, they don't get it. (can always introduce some other characters for visual appeal)

I don't think I will be able to get Sideshow Bob out of mind when I see the movie. I guess the guy they cast as Hank McCoy in X2 didn't have the right voice.

so are you saying X2 was good?

because it wasnt.

to be fair, I only watched 15 minutes of it on HBO, but it was the climax. and it was stupid.

Winnow · Post by **Winnow** » May 19, 2005, 1:16 pm

Hell yes Xmen 2 was good. 15 minutes doesn't do it justice. The best part of Xmen is the character development.

The final puss boy scene where cyclops cries like a little girl when Jean Grey decides to sacrifice herself is not a good sampling of the movie!

Doesn't the 'climax' in that movie go on for like, 65 minutes or so?

"Oh, it's over. no... wait... okay... alright, now it's over... nope...? Still going? okay... There we go. Now it's all- God dammit..."

I mean, I liked it and all, but Cripes on a Cracker...

Voronwë · Post by **Voronwë** » May 19, 2005, 1:24 pm

the part i'm talking about mostly centers around the X-men stopping time or something stupid and putting some plan on the Presidents desk during his press conference.

anyway, i'm just trolling, carry on =)

Fairweather Pure · Post by **Fairweather Pure** » May 19, 2005, 1:32 pm

X2 was great! You don't know wtf you're talking about

Magneto escaping his little plastic prison was fucking sweet. So was wolverine going ballistic and killing a dozen soldiers. The subtle and continued use of Mystique was constantly entertaining. I think it had everything an X-Men movie should have.

Fairweather Pure · Post by **Fairweather Pure** » May 19, 2005, 1:35 pm

Oh yeah, they are doing a Wolverine movie and also a Magneto movie / spin-off. The Magneto movie will revolve around his transformation from childhood and optimistic young man, into the brutal "man vs. mutant" guy that he is today. Highlights would include his friendship with Xavier and clash of ideals. McKellen says he is onboard if needed, but thinks it would only be a cameo role as the older Magneto.

The best part of X2 was the Deathstryke v. Wolverine fight.

They didnt stop time, Xavier was just freezing the humans in place. Hes just that own.

You aren't kidding when you say you caught the end ;P That's basically just the standard superhero posedown at the end of the movie. Ignore it, the rest of the movie was excellent.

Nightcrawler

Yeah, Voro, watch the first 10 minutes and I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. Dregor isn't kidding when he says "<3 Nightcrawler".

when i was a little kid i was never really into comic books so my opinion isnt as informed as the rest of you....but of all the ones ive seen the Xmen series (mediocre imo) is the best comic book movie i have seen, all of the others, specially spiderman blew...il watch it and il most likely be entertained, but im not expecting anything spectacular

Yes, but we all know that you're a brain-fried simpleton so it doesn't really matter!

X-Men, Xmen 2 are the best comic hero movies ever IMO but the first Spiderman ranks way up there. His origin played out very well on the big screen and the acting was first rate.

Keverian FireCry · Post by **Keverian FireCry** » May 21, 2005, 12:18 pm

He's too thin for Juggernaut. He's supposed to built like a...juggernaut isn't he? I'm sure they'll make it work fine, but I would have thought some big burly dude would play him. He's deffinately got that badass attitute for Juggernaut though.

Fash · Post by **Fash** » May 21, 2005, 12:38 pm

if you liked xmen 1 and watch xmen 2 start to finish, you will love it.. it's not often a sequel is better than the original, and that is the general consensus, or was shortly after it came out.

Kwonryu DragonFist · Post by **Kwonryu DragonFist** » May 21, 2005, 12:39 pm

Maybe Vinnie Jones voice inside a big suit + cgi?

You only see Vinnie Jones mouth when he talks, the rest could be CGI etc

Juggernauts arms are HUGE, Hulk-size arms.

Or maybe he will be inside a Rubbersuit a la Godzilla

Tegellan · Post by **Tegellan** » May 21, 2005, 4:29 pm

Vinnie Jones will probably fit the role as Juggernaut well, but he will need some serious buffage, i am sure a big suit and cgi can do that though, so i am confident he will rock.

Shashonna · Post by **Shashonna** » May 21, 2005, 5:31 pm

I liked Xmne2, I dont think I would if Nightcrawler wasnt in it. I love him and Alan Cummings. I went to imdb to look up Xmen 3 and found that Maggie Grace is listed as Kitty Pride, Im not familar with that Xmen character there wasnt a head shot but you can see her in the Photo Gallery,

Was Kitty a blonde with big boobs, maybe its the dress?
http://www.imdb.com/gallery/granitz/267 ... ,%20Maggie

Anyways that was what I saw on imdb can change Im sure

Keverian FireCry · Post by **Keverian FireCry** » May 21, 2005, 6:10 pm

It's that dress making her boobs big. Her face is right for Kitty IMO, very hot, but also cute and youthful. They will be making her a brunette though, that's what Shadowcat always was.

Winnow · Post by **Winnow** » May 21, 2005, 8:16 pm

Voro:

Here's the opening Nightcrawler scene the posters above were referring to.

Thanks to the help of:

DVDshrink (Re-authored and ripped chapter one from my original X-Men 2 DVD)

Virtual Dub (extracted AC3 audio from .vob file because Dr. Divx didn't recognize it)

AC3tool (extracted wav file from ac3 audio file because ripped audio volume was too low)

CoolEdit 2 Pro (boosted audio by 25db)

Dr Divx Pro (combined ripped avi video with wav file)

What a bitch to make a short clip from a DVD. It's almost perfect but there's a slight ms audio delay that I said "aww fuck it" like that guy with the cool wookie costume and cheap mask.

Here it is:

Opening X-Men 2 Scene 3min27sec ~27mb

It's in AC3/Divx so if you need the filters go here:

If you need the Divx codec (any self respecting pr0n watcher should already have this) go here and get the free one:

Yeah I'm worried. I hope Singer finishes Superman and then comes back to do X-3 or something =). Though I guess there are plenty of great directors out there, so hopefully they can find someone who can keep the series going strong.
