Better check it out before the studio has it pulled from the site.

I guess it could be considered spoilerish.

Colossus ain't that shiny!

Looks more like the LeadMan!

That was disappointing. More bad one-liners per minute than I remember. And yeah, Colossus doesn't look right

Still, it's a must-see!

But it is very disappointing to see Wolvie in that leatherjacket + jeans-outfit all the time.

Why ain't he never wearin' the yellow/blue or yellow/black outfit?

The only thing different about colossus is that he doesn't have his red tights on, or his green flattop.

In the books, he was pretty damn shiny...I always thought he looked like aluminum or something.

I'd think they would go for the shiny metal-look a la Terminator 2, but it seems they went with dark metal aka leadman instead.

I think that was just the lighting. It looked pretty shiny to me. He was wearing a dark "shirt" over it though, and it was a rather dark setting. A "Terminator" look would have taken away from any possible "realism."

Well he is supposed to look something like this, not dark black metal!

Shiny as T2 model but with lines/stripes!

Comics also aren't real!

I know what you mean though. The biggest problem I had with him was how small he was when compared to the comic version. Similar to the Juggernaut. BUT..I would rather them be smaller than be animated/CGI'd too heavilly.

Green Flattop? I dont' recall that. Blue maybe!

His sister Illyana Rasputin (Magik) was a cooler character!

Known Superhuman Powers: Magik is both a superhumanly powerful mutant and a highly expert sorceress.

Magik's mutant power is the ability to teleport herself and others through time and space by creating "stepping discs" of an unknown form of energy. If she teleports herself or someone else from one place on Earth to another, the person being teleported passes through Magik's limbo in the process. Magik can also teleport herself or someone else into her limbo or out of it. Apparently she can mentally scan her limbo while on Earth in order to locate whoever she wishes to teleport to Earth from it.

Magik has succeeded in teleporting herself and another person across a continent on one occasion, and across centuries in time on another. However, Magik has not yet mastered her teleportational ability. The greater the distance over which she teleports, the greater the possible margin of error in terms of her arriving at the point in time she desires. Hence, when she once teleported herself and a friend from New York State to California, hoping to arrive within seconds of the time she left and her friend instead arrived one week later, having accidentally traveled into the future. Magik is continuously practicing the use of her teleportational power in order to master it.

Magik is the sorceress supreme of her limbo dimension. The extent of her powers there has yet to be defined, but she can probably cast any magic spell that Belasco could, having had access to his store of sorcerous knowledge. For unknown reasons, Magik's magical abilities are far more limited in Earth's dimension. On Earth she can perform astral projection and sense mystical presences. However, her magical powers on Earth are primarily limited to the use of her soulsword, which is the ultimate embodiment of her mystical might. The soulsword will have no physical effect on a non-supernatural creature; it will pass right through such a creature as if it were intangible. However, the soulsword can release a nonsupernatural being from any magical spell that it is under. Moreover, the soulsword can physically injure arid even kill a supernatural being such as a demon.

The more that Magik uses her magical power on any occasion, the more mystical armor appears on her body. The nature and origin of this armor is as yet unknown.

For unknown reason, the soulsword can physically injure Kitty Pryde, alias Shadowcat, even when she is using her phasing power to become intangible. Pryde is also the only known person other than Magik who can wield the soulsword effectively. When Pryde does so, Magik's armor begins to appear on Pryde's body. Moreover, when the Beyonder once freed Illyana from the influence of her darksoul, Pryde gained the ability to produce and wield the soulsword. Illyana later took the darksoul influence back upon herself in order that she could again wield the soulsword to save Pryde's life from a demon. The reason for the mystical connection between Illyana Rasputin and Kitty Pryde, each of whom is the other's best friend, is unknown.

"Logan-"
"Oh, don't get your panties in a bunch."

"That was my last cigar!"

The dialogue and one-liners make me cringe. Honestly, how fake the throw looked bothered me more than Colossus' appearance. I can only hope that clip isn't representative of the entire movie.

probably not as polished as it could be.

Ok, so actual comics are real, but the stories they tell are not real/did not happen! (for the most part)

sorry winnow, maybe it was blue. I just remember he had an odd colored flattop.

Kwon, 99% of the reason he isn't shiny in that clip is most likely because it's dark outside, and there are no lights shining on him. Metal requires light to reflect and shine. No light = no shine.

Animalor · Post by **Animalor** » May 3, 2006, 8:26 pm

I'm not sure how they would've fucked him up after they had done him so well in his X2 cameo.

That clip may have been from a rough cut also and may not be representative of the full product.

Kwonryu DragonFist · Post by **Kwonryu DragonFist** » May 3, 2006, 8:31 pm

Well, as long as Juggernaut looks like this, i'm satisfied

Oh wait...

Trailer didn't have LENS FLARE, that is why he didn't look shiny enough.
