Even though I am not a fan of the X Men movies, I would give them some credit if they were actually trying to establish a prequel to the universe they spent a decade creating in X 1-3 and the Wolverine movie. But if they're just going to set it in modern day, then it's really not a prequel, but another reboot skewing to the teen audience. Hopefully that's not the case.

I really enjoyed the Xmen movies but that's probably because I quit reading the comic back in the late 70s.
Unless they look especially kick ass I'll probably wait for them on disc.

you enjoyed 3? really? i mean i feel that x2 was the best super hero movie made thus far. at the end when they showed us phoenix under the lake.. omfg. it was like the best movie moment ever. (for me.) then they just isht all over it with 3. i almost rage quit that movie.

Yeah, I kind of liked 3 too. All the stuff with magneto was pretty cool. Lot of great effects. I enjoyed the jean grey/phoenix backstory stuff too.
Like almost all of the new superhero movies they flood them with too many characters and the whole thing usually feels diluted but this one was supposed to be a war between mutants so it kind of worked this time.
I think overall I liked it better than the last Wolverine movie though I did enjoy the backstory stuff from it but that last fight scene didn't do anything for me.

3 was possibly one of the biggest disappointments of my entire life. Everyone who had anything to do with writing, and directing that movie should be killed. Painfully.

Also Wolverine pretty much sucked.

You guys should read the abridged version of the script, which takes a very tongue-in-cheek satire approach to how the movie was done. Plus it's more entertaining than the movie itself was.

http://www.the-editing-room.com/xmen3.html

Here's a sample:

EXT. ALCATRAZ

There is a long battle. IAN MCKELLEN throws cars at
people and AARON lights them on fire.

AARON STANFORD

Couldn’t you just use the metal in the cars as
bullets like you did in the last movie? What’s the point of me lighting
them on fire?

IAN MCKELLEN

Well, what’s the point in bothering with any of this
when Famke can just destroy everyone with her mind?

AARON STANFORD

Um.. To needlessly pad the scene with superfluous
action in order to compensate for the lackluster script?

IAN MCKELLEN

Attaboy.
