Are you all ready for the third X-Men movie or what!! Okay, I've just gotta take a second to thank you all for your amazing comments on X-Men 2. Turns out I missed the hint at Gambit when Mystique was going through the files! Also, I think my TV might be too dark because the big shape at the end looked like a mysterious blob, not a phoenix hahaha.
The Dark Phoenix's story line is one of my most favourites... I actually named the first PC I ever built Dark Phoenix! So I was also really surprised at her being in this series of movies at all! They went a very different way with her story from what I know of in the cartoons, but I thought it was still super interesting!

X-Men movies followed a rocky path. They aren't bad but the lack of careful planning evident in the Avengers sequence shows. Marvel made their world stand out with the complex continuity that ran through and across titles, so it's no wonder comic fans take shots at these films. Nevertheless they are entertaining and the stories aren't bad. IMO they do a better job of handling moral ambiguity than the Marvel Captain America/Avengers movies. The problems of individual differences and calling things diseases and claiming you have cures are much closer to real life problems here. This is the reason the X-Men became the top comic in Marvel"s lineup. It also makes it harder to create these movies than to go with the tried and true Thanos type of story line.
