Thanks for the link!

I cannot wait for this movie!
Lets hope its just as good as the others!  8)

i know i'm hoping the same thing. i lovedthe first 2 movies. i hope the new director keeps up the high standard

Thanx fo rthe link MOB.

Where did you see Callisto???

I think i saw Emma Frost....

Oh, oh, oh.. and how awesome did Angel look??

Really curious to know who the oriental mutant is who's standing behind Magento in the forest!!


PS: Trailer looks awesome... they did an awesome job with makeup on Kelsey Grammar me thinks!!

Just praying for it to be aas good as the first two also. I hope Brett hasn't tried to delve to deeply in the lives of ALL the Brotherhood mutants.... in such away it takes the emphasis away from the story at hand!!! however saying that i would like to hear names and powers being used for sure!!! not just stuff blowing up everywhere!!! :o=

Callisto is 4th on the left in the photo gallery

Well spotted on Emma Frost

Helllpppppppppp.  I just keep getting a blank screen then a broken logo  :(  Any help would be very much appreciated  :o=

I've just tried both links and the worked for me.
If it's the film link try going through the Apple Movie trailer site

http://www.apple.com/trailers/

If it's the cast list try

http://www.imdb.com

and type in X-men 3 in the search box.

Reading the cast list I've just noticed Kelsey Grammer as Hank McCoy/Beast

Thanks for the links but I keep getting a message about bad movie atoms  :(

I think I am doomed to wait until it is at the pictures  :(

I got the same message. :(

REally?? I thought most poeple knew about Kelsey (granted i had actually forgotten) but he was cast ages ago :)



Reason you might be getting a broken logo is that you might need to upgrade to Quicktime 7 if you don't already haveit?!?!?!

How cool??

just checked the IMBD.com casting list and its thrown up the following mutants who have been cast into X3:

Multiple Man
Siryn (however i'm sure the character name is wrong??)
Omega Red
M
Leech (wasn't he a Morlock??)
Jubilee

Non Mutnants:

Dr moira MacTaggart
Dr Kavita Rao (is she  mutnat?? don't really recognise the name??!)

She's a geneticist who, in the comics, claimed to have developed a "cure" for mutation.

Wasn't Leech the little kid who hung around with another mutant - for some reason Archie is coming to mind.

Multiple Man?  Is that Jamie Braddock the one who had to wear a suit so he didn't multiply? I don't remember him being called that.

If they are having Moira then they have to have Banshee (wasn't Siryn the daughter of Banshee?).

I hadn't realised how much I had forgotten about the Xmen characters.  Time to leap into some comics me thinks.  ;D

It's Jamie Madrox and he is known as the Multiple Man in the comics.
Jamie Braddock was/is (he maybe dead... or not) the brother of Brian Braddock (Capt. Britain) and Betsy Braddock (Psylocke)

Oh yes  ;D  Told you I needed to re-read the comics  ;)  That is so strange though, I thought Jamie had a much cooler name.  He was the one who lived with Moira though, wasn't he?  Did he go on to join Excalibur?  I remember Nightcrawler, Shadwowcat and Captain Britain were in that.

Speaking of which is Nightcrawler in X3?  I had heard they were going to do a Wolverine film.  It would be a real shame if Kurt wasn't in that film; I used to love the scenes with Wolverine and Nightcrawler having a little dig at each other.

As I am having real trouble getting into the X3 site, can someone tell me what the story line is.  Is it the Dark Phoenix Saga?

Vaugely.
In one shot Jean Grey is standing next to Magneto as he gives a speech and another shows them marching in to battle together at the head of his army

Oh no!  Not Magneto again  :(  Don't get me wrong I love Ian and Magneto is a brilliant villain.  But there are so many more excellent baddies they could use.

Why not do the Morlock story, or the Savage Land or even better the Starjammers  ;D  I suppose I shouldn't moan, at least there is another film being done, although why they never filmed two back to back is beyond me.  They are almost guaranteed to make money so why not do more while the actors are willing to.  Lets face it they only managed to keep Storm because Hallies last few films have bombed.

I just wish all the studios would get together and do maybe a Xmen / Spiderman / Fantastic Four crossover.  Now that would be a series of films everyone would want to see  ;D

You just have to be a bit patient with the trailer.  It does take a while to download.

Awesome looking film though - cannot wait to see it!  Seems liked they've ramped up the action quota.  I also thought everyone knew about Kelsey Grammer but I agree, the makeup looks awesome.  I bet he was hot covered in all that fur!  Odd choice, he certainly has the right amount of gravitas but he's not an action movie actor.

As for Vinnie Jones, well you gotta love the guy but can you really take him seriously as an actor?  Ex British footballer?  Singer of "Wooly Bully"?  Grabber of Gazza's nuts?

The thing that's always annoyed me is the leather x-men outfits.  Granted it's better than yellow spandex (!) but surely they could just wear "real world" clothing?  The outfits don't contribute to their mutant powers.

Halle Berry looks very sexy with her shorter, spiky crop and I'm glad Anna Paquin is in there - she's a babe!  I just hope they flesh out some of the other mutant characters - Mystique and Colussus are in there too.  Unfortunately there are too many to do them justice in a 2 hour movie.  Considering it's been a troubled shoot they seem to have got quite a bit of stuff done so far.

I've got most of the auto cards from the first 2 movies so I guess I'd better get saving for this one  ;D

Please tell me that is not The Juggernaut, as in Charlies step brother  :-\

From what I heard about the ending of X2 (I didn't see it, yet :-[), I was hoping for a third movie about the Phoenix Saga. Well, I guess the story will be there, but it will be intertwined with another one. I didn't read the comics so I'm not too familiar with the stories, but I used to watch the cartoon on Saturday Mornings. Was there a Phoenix Saga and a Dark Phoenix Saga in the comics like in the cartoon?

I'm afraid it is Sharon  :rofl:

I only saw a few of the cartoons but I would say there was a passing resemblance to the comics  ;)  A lot of things were changed in the cartoons that I didn't like, such as the order people joined the Xmen.

The Phoenix Saga and Dark Phoenix were amazing in the comics.  There was the whole Hellfire Club and that bloke who could alter reality (can't remember his name).  This was the point that Kitty Pride (Shadow Cat) originally came into the Xmen.  Then there was the Starjammers which lead to the Savage Land.  And then back to the Dark Phoenix and Lillandra.  The Fantastic Four crossed over for part of the story and, correct me if I am wrong, so did Spiderman.  And then there was Madeline Pryor and little Nathan.  Oooooo I really must open up those comic cases one last time before I finally decide to flog the lot  ;D
