Two Hours I'll Never Get Back

Went to X-3 today with maevebran. (It's her birthday today, BTW, in addition to my parents' 30th wedding anniversary).

Others have said it better, and all over my f-list too, so I won't repeat too much. But I do have one question: Were any of the characters ever actually in character, in that entire movie? Magneto, maybe; some of the lesser characters I don't know so well, probably. But the rest? *blinks* I love these people, and I just could not believe the way they were acting most of the time, not to mention how utterly shallow the plot was. Whiskey tango foxtrot, my friends. I think I will live in denial after this as far as movieverse is concerned.

OTOH, I did get to see the trailer for Dead Man's Chest again. OMG, I have such an unholy lust for that movie, I may spontaneously explode the day it comes out. *drifts off into thought, drooling*

Well, you could always wait until you have nothing else to do and then take in a matinee, just so you'll know what exactly all the WTF was about.

There were some intriguing moments. And lots of pretty, pretty special FX. And some great one-liners; even Jean-whipped and whipsawing between running off like the rogue he is and running back to be Campus Daddy, Logan is entertaining to listen to, and Beast is a good addition. Just, you know. Brace for impact before you go in. =)

Not at $6.50 (or whatever exorbinate amount they're charging now) a pop.

I'll wait until it hits the movie rental place.
