Title: X-Men 3
Post by: Trough on 01 June, 2005, 11:42:14 PM
Anyone mentioned this yet?

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/film/4600291.stm

Not arsed about the director, but I didn't know who was playing Beast (assuming it's actually true).  Good casting.

Sorry if this has been mentioned here already, but I can't be bothered to go trawling to check!

Vinnie Jones as Juggernaut? Surely somebody is having a laugh!

Hopefully Hugh Jackman will slice his big stupid bollocks off.

Jones's, that is, not his own.

Although that's got to be a constant threat when you're having a slash (arf!).

Well Matthew Vaughn (X-men 3 director) has got a fresh rating of 79% on RottenTomatoes with his movie Layercake- certainly gives my hope

Gambit - first drawn by our own Mike Collins, IIRC.

TBH I've always found Gambit extremely annoying.

Heh. I in no way wish to imply that the whole annoying "I'm so 'cool' and I have an endearing accent" schtick of Gambit is Mikes fault, and fully admit that getting to create an X-Man is a pretty damn cool thing - It's just a shame it had to be Gambit.

It could be worse, It could be a member of X-Force or something.

Yes, because I'm actually Rob Liefield, and I want to know what the hell you're implying, Wyatt!

Now, I make it a rule never to dis a fellow artist- I know how difficult this job can be, and how outside circumstances can affect the work you do- things that the buying public never knows, nor needs to know. I'm always polite and would rather not comment than judge another's work.


...well, apart from Rob Leifeld, obviously.

I really, REALLY don't get at all- I mean what the f**k is it about his stuff that sells? Is that meant to be HUMAN anatomy or some strange race from a parallel reality?! Dammit- I just... (rant fades off into the distance...)

Mike, you've just made my day!

Indeed, Leifeld is the only artist I have ever heard another artist say unkind things about.
