Strange. I've never actually seen her in diamond form before. I guess I haven't read many X-Man since 2001.

Not sure I like it but whatever.

The second Genosha story line I assume.

I recently re-watched the first two X-Men movies and I got to say they hold up well. Wish the third was worth a damn, but they did a bang up job bringing these characters to life with 1 & 2.

Are AB and I the only ones who thought the third was entertaining? And this is coming from someone who holds X2 in high regard.

Perhaps the only living human beings who did.

I knew there was a reason I liked you! People that don't like X1/X2 are probably looking for the comic book brought to the big screen (complete with yellow and blue spandex!), as those two movies are extremely enjoyable.

The third one is fun to watch for some of the awful lines ("I'm the Juggernaut, *****!") and action/mutant scenes.

Iceman was awful though.

1&2 weren't bad at all. The starship captain was perfectly cast, Jackman wasn't bad, Gandalf was good, if not a bit old. Halle Berry was awful, guy playing Cyclops wasn't very "Cyclops-y", and the rest of them pretty much blew. All in all, a good way to spend 120 minutes.

One of my favourite things about X2 is Nightcrawler. The opening scene alone kicks so much ass.

Yeah, but then you realize Alan ******* is playing him, and it goes to **** from there. Plus, I never understood all that tattoo bullshit.

If you're gonna reboot I don't understand why not do one of the alternates like House of M or Age of Apocalypse. The latter is probably too much to deal with I guess.

Thanks to TDK, Marvel movies just look unbearably cartoony now.

I tried to re-watch the 3rd the other day. Couldn't do it. Drives me crazy how bad it is.

To be fair, that line was just in it because of the rampant meme at the time.
