I thought the movie was awesome! I saw it twice this weekend. One I paid for the ticket and the other I had a free ticket that I got when I bought X-Men 1.5 DVD. Not a bad deal. I bought the DVD for $16.99 and the movie ticket where I went was $9.50 was free.

I'm glad that X1 did well so the studio gave a much larger budget to make X2. Also, its great that the movie raked in alot of money so they can make X3. And so on.

I liked seeing Wolverine's Berzerker rage! He was all over the place. The Yuriko story line comes from the Wolverine saga. I guess they didn't want to mix them both.

I also picked off Beast in the newscast and Gambit's name on the computer. Not the other ones though.

Magneto's powers were incredible!! Ian Mckellan is perfect for that role. I wonder if Hale Berry would return as Storm now that she won the Oscar for Best Actress. I hope she does. She is so hot!

There is so much history in the X-Men. Its hard to choose which story line to go with. Remember, the writers and the director have to make movies for the mass audience not just for XMen fans.

I remember Mystique being Nightcrawler's mother but isn't she also the Scarlet Witche's mother too? I'm not sure.

Lady Deathstrike, Magneto and Nightcrawler were being controlled by a secretion from Jason Stryker's brain.

I found an anomoly with the movie. If Xavier couldn't use his powers because they were being nullified by the (?) thing Stryker put on his head. How could Xavier be using Cerebro with that (?) thing on his head?

I really enjoyed the movie. My heart was racing from the beginnig. Nightcrawler, Wolverine and Magneto were fantastic. Through in Storm and Mystique causing havok was also great. Xavier controlling reality. This movie just plainly rocks!!

Some great lines: Not verbatim.
"Logan, if you don't turn off that cigar especially in here in Cerebro. I'll have you think you are a six year girl for the rest of you life. I'll even have Jean braid you hair."

"I guess I am just an animal."

"Rouge, you wouldn't hurt me."
