Just tell me what you tought...
For me, it’s at least 10x better than Spider-Man!
The best scenes...Magneto’s scape from prison, Pyro ’pyroeing’ the cops, Magneto saving the X-wing, after that fantastic hurricane sequence from Storm...but I found the end a little silly...well, not as big as the entire movie or not as cool as in Spider-Man, despite that the whole movie is cooler than this one, as I said
Now...I’m looking reeeally forward to watch the Matrix, in another full-filled movie room, like the one I went May 2nd! I watched it in a neighbor town, Piracicaba (hey luizfernando!)...go, Neo!

X2 is AWESOME!!! I saw it on... Tuesday and going to see it again tonight.
Spiderman was cool. I liked it, hopefully part two would be better.
Hulk looks like it is going to suck!! The character is WAAAAAAAY too cartoony.

Jackie: Remember the tv series with Lou Ferrigno? He’s got a guest shot in the movie (Hulk), so I’m gonna see it on account of him. I met him YEARS ago when I was very little, like around 4. His biceps were as big as my head in relaxed pose!!!! This time round, tis a different matter since I added 24 years ;o)
Seen X-Men 2, and just to screw with everyone, the ending was done as it is the birth and rise of Jean Grey’s “alter ego” The Phoenix. Stay tuned for more from Phoenix and Stan Lee at a future date (Yes, he’s working on X3, unless he scraps it for various reasons).

I just watched this movie ....... and I LOVED IT!!!

X2 is ok....better than the first one.....as for awesome? its a matter of taste.....but anything would have to have been better than spiderman coz that really did suck for the entire film.....not holding out much hope for Hulk being alot better. ;)
*waits for Matrix Reloaded*

LittleSpooky: do you read X-Men?
I love the TV cartoon, in the 90s...
But I think the Phoenix thing is so stupid...it’s something that doesn’t match with the elements, very strong, social, and deep (at least for a comic) in the X-Men universe. I’m looking forward to Bryan Singer finally include The Sentinels and maybe another mutant enemy, instead of Magneto...like Dr. Sinister or other, or maybe Dr. Task, the Genosha Island...(yeah, there’s something like it in X-Men 2, the human element agains the mutants, but that’s the whole thing behind X-Men...humansXmutants...)
Vixzter...Aaaahhh...only ’coz Kim Barret it’s Matrix Designer...
hehehehe...

Yep! Jean is definately turining into Phoenix. I saw the movie.. umm Again on Saturday and was freaking out all over again that I paid a bit more attention to details.
One thing though, they better get their asses in gear cos the kids in the movie are getting like older! And Logan is aging as well. LOL! ;)
I was sad that Scott wasn’t more in this one. :(
And very happy to know that “Iceman” who I thought is a cutie is actually my age in real life! Can’t say I am robbing the craddle anymore!! *grins*

Vixzter...Kim Barret it’s a british designer, she’s responsable for the whole black wardrobe (and Morpheus’ cool green ties...what a nice combination...). She chose from glasses to shiny vynil wear...
I read that Gambit, Archangel and The Beast would appear, but the final editon cutted’em out...what a pity...maybe in the DVD...
Now, one thing must be said for sure...the men wing can’t complain about the girls in this movie...specially for Rebecca Damn-Beautiful-Romjin-Stamos and Kelly (Woo)Hu(!!!)
You can easily see how beautiful Rebecca is even under those tons of blue makeup, and about Kelly...well, I must confess I hardly noticed girls with japanese traces in my life, but (I know she’s from Hawaii) she’s specially pretty...she’s veeery charming...
And about Matrix...Carrie-Ann is obviously that kind of serious women that attracts you exactly ’cos her smile is something rare...you silenciously beg to see it...

X2 is awesome!!!
The best part is the fight between Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) and Lady Deathstrike (Kelly Hu) and the attack of the school.
X2 blows Spider Man away!
I´m gonna go see it many times.

i hated spiderman, thought he is a wuss. sexy lasses in X2 aswell . frankie yum. liked her in bond lol.
tinytim said on May 15, 2003 14:37:
Hmmm...Spiderman is still good, it’s very cool, c’mon! Everybody here loved it last year...the problem with movies it is...when something new is released, everybody forgets the previous one completely...
I think for X-Men 3...Storm and Jean won’t be present...maybe some small appearances, but just this...for those who know the cartoon or comics...I believe they’re gonna finally include Beast, Gambit and Psylocke.
And...to those ones who might get interested...here it goes the link to The Matrix Revolutions (yes, the Matrix 3) trailer...someone uploaded it from Enter the Matrix game - for Playstation 2 - you can get it when you finish the game...
If you don’t want to screw the surprise (I love to do it, ’cause anyway, I always get the gorgeous feeling of being inside the movie theater and seeing it there, on the live screen, no matter how many times I saw trailer, sub-trailers, commercials, pics) so, don’t watch it (or better, download - 13 MB)...but, in the next Friday, don’t leave the movie room until the credits to finish...the trailer will appear in the end of the movie, after all the credits...

I tasted from this trailer...that Neo and Agent Smith will keep their fight forever...he will upgrade more and more than in this about-to-open ’Reloaded’...and I think Neo will die...not for the trailer, but, after all...he’s the ’Messiah’ of the story...You’ll see that Agent Smith can even fly, too...It seems such a Dragon Ball Z thing...but it’s OK...the Wachowski Bros. are big animé and nippon stuff fans...
Anyway, I also read that when the humans finally destroy the Matrix (that has to happen of course) they will change the nature of many things...the fire will behave like water and the water like gas...hmmm...that’s a thing I’m very up to see...18 months of filming (actually only 4 of shooting) and 300 million dollars, I guess are quite enough to make something remarkable for more than a decade...and that’s a lot for today cinema standards...
