roguem: (X-Men - Logan X3 poster)
I was among the lucky ones to have X-Men Origins: Wolverine open in theatres last night. So here's the review.

X-Men Origins: Wolverine is hitting cinemas around the globe, but will it live up to the standard set by Bryan Singer, or end up in the dumps with Brett Ratner’s X3?
 
Being a fan of the franchise I was really looking forward to another film, but after X-Men 3: The Last Stand I’ve learned to keep my expectations as low as possible, and I actually managed to enter the cinema without any big expectations.

I am surprised by the amount of negativity for this film, but I think the level of expectations has a lot to do with that; personally I just went to see a movie. And I had fun. There were a few small things that bothered me, some interactions, and maybe not enough time with one or two characters, and one scene featuring a sink that seems to have been put in for cheap laughs; they really could have left that scene out of the film.

There were worries about the inclusion of so many characters in the film, but I never felt that took anything away from the story, there’s really only one or two characters I felt got pushed aside. It was actually nice to see some new faces and learn something new about the familiar characters. This is helped a lot by the strong cast, the inclusion of so many characters could have easily have been overwhelming or just plain bad if the actors didn’t put their all into the few scenes they had. I found everyone’s effort to be top notch, and many new characters endeared themselves to me despite their short screen-time

Any continuity worries I had with regards to the X-Men films were snuffed out, save maybe one or two, but that’s nothing another movie or your imagination won’t take care off.

If nothing else you’re getting a good action kick, but I can’t help but hope that there would be an unrated, slightly bloodier, version when it comes out on DVD and BluRay, as some of the more violent scenes reminded you this is a PG-13 movie.
It’s hard to compare it to the previous films in the franchise, but one thing I can say for sure, it’s much better than X3. Considering all the aspects I will say that X2 still holds the top spot, but where Wolverine lands in comparison to the first X-Men movie is hard to say, go see it and make up your own mind.

4/5

Have a lot of pictures I've been wanting to post. Mostly of the areas where I live in Norway, London and even Poland. These pictures have been taken from mid january up until now, so there are quite a few. So if you want to know a little more about where I live, follow the cuts. :D

Am enjoying myself with the possibilities of a paid account. :D
Got myself a new mood theme! Took me half the day to get it uploaded and such, but it's up and running now and I love it. *squee*

Had a quiet couple of days. Have enjoyed the latest 'Supernatural' eps, will hopefully get around to some reviews. I loved them though, I have to say that much, so great to just have fun and watch it again. :D

[livejournal.com profile] isil80 stopped by today. Was very nice. She gave me my birthday present; Marvel Legends with Wolverine, Rogue, Beast, Magneto and Gambit. Very cool. I loved it.
She also got me the 'Serenity' DVD!! *squee* Awesome. I loved it. I finally got my own copy of it. *does happy dance*

Been a quiet couple of days, and I don't see that changing. Hope everyone is doing well.

I'm leaving tomorrow, don't really want to. Right now, crawling behind the sofa and staying there until thursday sounds more tempting, but it'll pass.
Wish me luck Wednesday morning, I'm going to need it.

Had a quiet day today, packed my stuff and sorted some stuff.. Saw "Back to the Future, part 1". Been feeling a little nostalgic, so I just had to watch it, still get stressed at the end. Saw "Phone booth" with my dad. Mum started out watching it with us, but got bored. Dad, on the other hand, liked it.

Am bored right now, so guess what!? That's right, another me quiz, maybe you'll learn something new. Feel free to nab and use yourself. I've stolen this one from [livejournal.com profile] curbsideprophet. If you wanna know, go on to the madness )

From Sci-Fi Wire:

X-Men producer Lauren Shuler Donner told SCI FI Wire that a third movie in the Marvel Comics franchise is slated to begin filming in Vancouver, B.C., in June 2005, with a release date of May 2, 2006. "I just had a conversation with [director] Bryan [Singer] today," Shuler Donner said in an interview at the Saturn Awards in Los Angeles on May 5. "We just started to talk about what the possibilities are. We're pretty sure Wolverine's going to come back."

Shuler Donner added that she's going to push to add the new mutants Gambit and Beast this time around. "I'm dying to put Beast in," Shuler Donner said. "I tried to get Beast in the first one and the second one, but it was always too expensive. So, yeah, I'm really dying to get Beast in, and I'd love to get Gambit in, because he's such a cool guy. And there's some really good casting ideas for Gambit." She declined to say who was up for the role.

As for Halle Berry - the Oscar-winning actress who has said she's reluctant to return unless her character, Storm, has a lot more to do - Shuler Donner said, "I certainly hope so, because I love working with her. ... We would only write a big huge role for her, so she's right in that respect, and we would make sure that that would happen."

Donner also confirms that writing duo Mike Dougherty and Dan Harris (X2) will return to pen the third entry, which will focus at least somewhat around Jean Grey's (Famke Janssen) transformation into the powerful entity Dark Phoenix. Hit the link below to read it yourself!

On tuesday I had a good day, got a msg from Isen asking if I wanted to hang out. So i went, was there until 17:30. Saw the "Smallville" episode with Christopher Reeve, was ok. Afterwards we saw "Where the heart is" with Natalie Portman, was very cute.
When I got back home I just took it easy for a while, tried out my "X-Men" game on the Play Station, was cool. I used Wolvie to beat the crap out of Gambit, amusing.
[livejournal.com profile] beluga  dropped by in the evening, we just dropped on the couch and watched some TV, she stole my chocolates! ;P We saw "Bend It Like Bedkham", very cute movie. Afterwards we saw "Friends".
All in all a pretty easy going day.

Yesterday was "help-mommy-day". Went to the store and bought a whole lot of food. Then I had to go buy coffee and peal the potatoes. Was ok.
We took a break and watched "Gilmore Girls", Isen dropped by to hand over some cash so I can get some stuff for her in London. She left and I  did a little work on my homepage.
I the evening she dropped by again, we tested the "X-Men" game. Then we drove to the cinema, met up with [livejournal.com profile] beluga . We saw "Hidalgo". Was an oki movie, my main complaint is that it was rather slow paced, might have been a big hit a couple of decades ago. The acting and imagery was very good though. The biggest kick I got was the "Van Helsing" trailer before the movie began. :) Must admit it made me like horses a little better, had about a month when I was a kid where I was horse-crazy, but then I lost interest and couldn't figure out what the big deal was. 

Today I had some stuff to do for my mom as well. Went to the pharmacy and the post office, and took the dog to the vet.
I worked a little more on my homepage, decided to stay in today as my asthma was bugging me.
Made spaghetti and saw "Finding Nemo" with my mum.

Enjoy watching for X2 DVD, but feel like something's...missing? You're not the only one! While the DVD release had some great extras, fans noticed that a few things were missing.
It begs you to wonder if FOX will be releasing another X2 DVD somewhere down the line? While nothing's confirmed just yet, there's lots of extra things that can be included in a future release, and double DVD's seem to be a new trend.
We expect X2.5 to be released around the holidays before the release of X3...just like with X1.5. Not only is it a good marketing strategy, the studio knows that fans will be desperate to get any extra goodies that they missed out on, to hold them until the next film. Here's an outline of some things notably missing from the original X2 DVD release, and what we want to see.

UX3 cannot confirm nor deny if Remy LeBeau aka Gambit will be getting his own spin-off film. Where the information originated is classified, but the rumor began popping up on Dark Horizons and other entertainment news sites.
No further info besides "Gambit is getting his own film" was given. X1/X2 Producer, Lauren Shuller Donner already announced in the past that the WOLVERINE spin-off was hoping to begin development around the same time as X3, but she never gave any clue towards GAMBIT...or did she?
In a previous article a few months back, she mentioned: "I have a great idea for Gambit, but I can't say what it is." His cameo scene was also mysteriously cut from the final print of X2. Could there be good reasons for this? Will FOX/ MARVEL follow X3 with solo character spin-offs? Or is this just a clever rumor?

Stay tuned.

I've been to a few discussion boards where they keep complaining that Wolverine gets too much screen time in the movies, and how sad they are because Gambit's cameo got cut.

I liked both these characters very much, they are pretty much my favourites, but I have another view to the whole thing:

I didn't think Wolverine got as much screen time in X2 as in X-Men in spite the fact that X2 was built up around his past. But this might just be me. Wolverine is after all my fave, so I have another point of view that the people who have other faves.
As for the whole Gambit-cameo, I must be the only one that's thrilled that they cut it. Now don't get me wrong, I would love to see Gambit in the movies, but give the guy a propper introduction!

Now, this is a possibility for how they could do this:
We know that Wolverine is staying in the mansion and that X3 will probably be "the Phoenix saga". So I would like it to end with Jean giving Logan the final message that she has no interest for him. (I know she kind of did this in X2, but I have a point.) He then leaves at the end of the movie to give her space, and maybe the professor gave him another clue...
Then they can make X4 (this absolutely kills me to say,) without any Wolverine what so ever. Then they can give Gambit a propper introduction and a real amount of screen time. And then the fans will get a new love triangle to get into. :p
By X5 (hopefully we'll get this far) Hugh Jackman will have been replaced by another actor, so then they can have the new guy playing him come in.

Just a little thought. I doubt the Gambit fans will want to wait until X4 for Gambit, but with the way they're going I think it would be the best way to go.
