I was the first showing today, and I was happy happy joy joy. This is a sequel that is as good as or better than the first.

If you liked Mystique in the last movie . . . . ooowe la la this time.

Nope, Its good sci-fi action adventure, I knew you would be your usual self, and its a given that we are all waiting for The Matrix.

Thx for stopping by, come back when you have something decent to day.

So, did you go to the Cinerama?

I love that theater... Nothing is better than digital projector + big-ass screen.

**Krell** · May 2nd, 2003, 03:54 PM

Lowes Cineplex on Aurora. It was doable. They dont have the best sound system there.

yah I want to see The Matrix on that digital screen.

You're right. That's an example of an uneducated opinion.

I just got back from the theatres. It was awesome! A lot better than the first one, they should just "delete" the first movie... it was totally pointless compared to this one.

*SPOILERS AHEAD*
Nightcrawler was by far the best character. Not only in special effects, but in acting as well. Storm (Halle Berry) dissapointed me. I want to hear "Storm! Mistress of the Elements!" and see some dramatic acting, she just walks around and lights up her eyes like one of those bimbo witches from that show "Charmed". Jean Grey made up for it though, she was awesome. Wolverine suprised me... actually killed people...

The ending was suprising. Jean Grey "dies". However, X-Men fans non-newbies like me know she'll turn into the Pheonix. However, how will they handle that? The entire Pheonix thing is pretty much in space. And it's a horriably complex story (including Jean Grey's daughter in the future etc. etc.). I hope they can pull that off.

Few mistakes I noticed... Colossus was in the movie, yet he didn't speak Russian (and wasen't in Russia!). And the timeline is all screwed up (or at least, compared to the comic book and TV Cartoon)... Pheonix already? Yet where is Gambit? And Rouge has yet to take Marvel's powers yet..

Overall, great movie. Can't wait to see X3.

to be honest, i didn't like the first x-men and found it dull. but since the sequel sounds better, i think i'll check it out.

I was thinking about seeing it next week sometime down at the Cinerama before the Matrix Reloaded takes over the screen... the Oak Tree is okay... easier than going downtown or to Lynnwood (and the U-District rarely has anything but art-flicks--except at the god-awful Metro--only good for a foreign film or something with no explosions). It is the closest to me so I have gone there a few times.

I wonder if the Matrix would really be better at the IMAX than the Cinerama... The IMAX is tall, but it cuts off the sides. The Cinerama is longer and both have digital projectors... I just wish that they had "film geek night" when they would crank the volume since the people that complain aren't there (I hate quiet movies and the people that still complain).

SOCK, your avatar is nasty as hell. :green3

**Ken17625** · May 2nd, 2003, 04:46 PM

I seen the first one in theaters, it wasn't that good. Maybe this one will be better than the first though. It is supposed to have more "characters".
