LIR "contrarian?" I dunno, but I'll tell ya something: I took so long typing up a list of reasons off the top of my head why I like X3 that it got LIR

Shiv away. :)

Aside from Marsden (OK and Halle!), that movie is pure joy from start to finish (spoils)

The holodecky opening is fun and a decent little fakeout.

Famke is sexy as hell when she wakes up with Wolvie.

Juno is great and pretty, and I like the Rogue storyline that that triggers for her to seek the cure.

Really naked Mystique.

I'm Juggernaut bitch! (I mean come on, people)

The big big fight at the end where lots of X-Men die.

That Latina hottie from Heroes has cool powers, and she dies very well.

The whole scene at the house where Prof. X dies is sad and exciting. (Wolvie stuck to the ceiling, and when he throws what's his name through the ceiling and then he falls down in the next room.

The operatic and very theatrical "Please kill me Logan" scene worked for me as well.

X3 is good times in my book.

When X3 was in the theatres, some guy went off his meds and shot someone during a showing. - the wrong element, bad guy Sep 24, 14:24

The only thing I liked about X-Men 3 (spoils) - Beryllium Sep 24, 13:57 1
- Marvel movies are *really* good about this. -- nm - Spawn Sep 24, 13:58
Other than the Juggernaut bitch line...these all left me cold. -- nm - Will Hunting Sep 24, 13:55 9
- Juggernaut was the Wade Wilson of the movie. -- nm - Spawn Sep 24, 13:56 8
  - Yeah.....he seemed to have fun with it. Although I will say, Ryan Reynolds needs a 2nd character. - Will Hunting Sep 24, 13:59 7
    - or a first one -- nm - shamu Sep 24, 14:03 4
      - It's staggering that even in a thread extolling the virtues of Xmen 3...that you still have the craziest post involved. -- nm - Will Hunting Sep 24, 14:04 3

        He just can't write heroes. - Spawn Sep 24, 14:07
    - I disagree. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. (nm) - musubi Sep 24, 14:02
    - Green Lantern! - Spawn Sep 24, 14:00
You listed most of the reasons it sucked, now tell us what was good. -- nm - Spawn Sep 24, 13:53 2
- yeah, there's basically nothing in there I liked. -- nm - Reagen Sep 24, 13:55 1
  - the main thing is that it did no justive to the Dark Phoenix story, but then it took a couple of years to tell in the comics. -- nm - zork Sep 24, 13:56
