Spidey Freak Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 FC had its moments and the acting is fantastic, but X1 and X2 have stronger rewatchability values, despite their shortcomings. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalel009Shel Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 The beach scene is really fantastic yeah, my favorite moment is definitely when Moira walks up to Magneto when he loses his mind, and begins firing her gun, leading to Xavier getting one in the back, this is such a badass moment. Wow my favorite sequence too, along with Magneto getting vengance on thos Nazis, and Prof X helping Magneto to look within for his true potential. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

X2 and First Class are my favorite Xmen films. X2 is definitely the best one .. Then first class and then then the Wolverine 2013 and Xmen1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manu Delpech Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 (edited) Fact is XFC had an extremely rushed production, The VFX teams (among which was WETA) had like a couple of months to do it all. Considering that, the result is pretty impressive. Edited July 26, 2013 by RonSwanson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishstick Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 FC had its moments and the acting is fantastic, but X1 and X2 have stronger rewatchability values, despite their shortcomings. And nobody has the star power of Jakcman. JLaw does but she's in a thankless role there. One wouldn't get all the hype going by FC alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RyneOh1040 Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Given the WOM for Origins I think this is a very good result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said, Jackman as Wolvie is definitely still a draw, no matter how bad his last outing was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People clearly love the character and actor enough to forgive one clunker plus trailers were better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MovieMan89 Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 People clearly love the character and actor enough to forgive one clunker plus trailers were better. I actually think trailers were much worse. Origins had good trailers despite its shittiness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
