Re: X-Men 3
I thought it was a fine "stupid comic book movie." Its an action film, we're not talking about making Citizen Kane or Metropolis here guys. I've been a long time comic nerd and X-men collector and I can appreciate this for what it is.

Its like getting a couple months of comics written or drawn by someone you don't think is quite as brilliant as Chris Claremont or Jim Lee.
It was still decently crafted and presented, obviously a little less than what we've had but still not as horrendous as the early 90's Captain America or Punisher films. My only negative points: If they'd filled a whole 2 hours it would have been easier to pace the scope of the plot and Nightcrawler needed to appear again.

More power to Synger for doing Superman. There is no bigger turd of a superhero around and it will take a lot of talent to make a character so shallow and lame into a decent film. Good luck man, good luck.
