Omega Red isn't really confirmed and Fox has not released a cast list yet. Any cast list on the internet is not confirmed by Fox. Most of the "new" characters that the writers have given names too are not major characters. The only major character additions are Beast and Angel. Colossus and Kitty have expanded roles. Multiple Man, Callisto, Arclight, Juggs, etc don't have much more than extended cameo's.

Great to have another X-Men fan. ;) From what I read, the Phoenix's power will be really awesome on screen. They are going to have the full length trailer with this Monday's showing of 24. Hopefully we can get a glimpse of the Phoenix.

Spider-Man 3 will probably be awesome judging by the previous two. The reason Spidey is wearing the black suit is because in the comics there is this "alien (symbiote)" lifeform that takes over Spidey. I haven't like really read about that stuff for some time so I may be wrong but Spidey rejects it and it ends up on Eddie Brock who becomes Spidey's nemesis Venom. It's basically a hint that Venom will appear in the movie. I don't know if they will go the whole "alien" route though, they may change it to keep more real.

The new Superman movie looks like it will be good because Bryan Singer is directing it. The only problems I have are with some of the parts of the story and Superman's suit. But other than that I think it should be a good entry into the Superman franchise. :)

Well, I'm not sure how this movie is going to end, but it saddens me DEEPLY to think that this is the last X-Men movie.

Judging by the stuff that I'm seeing in the previews, I feel like it should just be the beginning!

I can't wait. I really wish that there were more movies to come. I want to see a lot more action with Dark Phoenix!!

I just watched the trailer and I'm in awe. Judging from the trailer it looks like there's more to this movie than just mindless action, which is good. Now I'm way more excited than before, and a bit less doubtful too.

Lets just hope the movie lives up to our expectations.

By the way, is anyone gonna play the X3 video game? Its supposed to take place right after part 2 and lead up to 3. It'll also explain why Nightcrawler isn't in the movie.

I'm glad you and Redguard liked the trailer. It seems the way it was cut that Fox/Marvel want us to keep guessing as to what happens to certain characters and things. At this point I am thinking Cyclops will live but the Professor may not, but it's all still up in the air.

I would like to play the X3 game. What's interesting is that there are sentinels in the game...could that mean we may see them on film? Could be.

That would be awesome if sentinals were in the movie but I think that would be pushing it a bit, so many things are crammed into this movie as is. Maybe for future X-Men movies however.

I remember reading an article a few years ago that said sentinals would be included in X2.

I don't know, I have a feeling they may be in the film. My reasoning is the cure is not being developed by the government, but a pharmicudical company. At the beginning of the recent trailer, the president's security advisor (rumored to be Boliver Trask, the person who started the sentinel program) tells the president that he knows what they have to do. That to me would indicate sentinels, at least in the final battle.

yes, that must be why the film was bland. he has never shown a flair for the visual. demme's style of directing is subtle and for performers. demme also had a smaller budget.

ratner wasn't trying to do anything except make a movie as he's always known to make them -- boring.

even you acknowledge it was a mediocre film. to tell someone their movie was "good" is vastly different from telling them it was great.
I think on the trailer I saw The Angel.

Did someone say Juggernaut's muscle suit looks ridiculous? :D

I do like the way that there's football on the TV in the background, Vinnie Jones being an ex-professional footballer himself :p

Hehe, well, he looks like he was in his trailer so that's probably why he was watching football/soccer or whatever it's called now a days. Hehe.

I still don't get why people think his suit looks ridiculous, because to my eyes it looks very realistic.

i'm not sure why folks are giving ratner grief for casting choices and not singer... i mean, Halle Berry has the striking eyes, no doubt, but she's no statuesque Storm and in the other direction, Hugh Jackman is about a foot too tall to play Wolverine :p (in X2 they gave up doing the camera tricks to make him seem short)

i'm stoked to catch the third installment.
