'X2: X-men United', Now that you've seen it...
Okay, first off I'd like to brag about the fact that I was amongst the first in the world to see X2 at a public screening down here in New Zealand. Yup at 11:59pm on Tuesday the 29th of April the lights dimmed and the pictures rolled.
Having followed this movie since day one my anticipation and expectations were incredibly high. Surely the final product would not be able to lice up to these high hopes. I was proven wrong, oh, so very, very wrong. The movie in a word is Amazing... no Astounding... no Uncanny... hell, any word that can describe the "oh my god" factor of leaving the theatre only to want more will fit in here. I don't want to spoil the plot nor any scenes in the movie but it is with strong enthusiasm that I say go see this movie!!! One thing I will say however is that comicbook geeks such as myself will love the little references such as Hank McCoy on TV or Gambit's (Remy's) name on a computer file. And the muchos gracias reference is to the great Dark Phoenix storyline but I'll say no more of that. Go see it! NOW, and if you have seen it, what do you think? p.s. one thing I didn't like about the movie was the fact that I had downloaded so many trailers, making ofs and countingdown.com x2 clips that it spoiled a lot of the movies "moments"... actually that's my fault. |
hey just as a notice.. if you are going to post spoilers please state that before the body of your post....
I'll add "spoilers" to the name of this thread when that happends so it doesn't ruin the mvoie for those who hhaven't seen it yet. |
I will probably see it in a week. Can't wait.
|
I am there this friday!
|
*SPOILER ALERT*
. . . . . . . ok, i saw it yesterday. thought it was a really great flick. but why did Jean Grey have to do what she did at the end? is there an reference to the comics that i didn't get, or was it some other reason? |
gonna see it tomorrow, the Dark Pheonix stuff does make me want to see it even more though!
|
Dark Phoenix?!?! Sweet!!! I've been looking forward to this movie since I saw the first one, and everything I've heard since has just made me want to see it more. I will be going tomorrow (Friday), and enjoying every minute of it!!!!

SPOILER FILLED POST
Quote:
You may have noticed that throughout the film Jean's powers were going odd, they were weak, then too powerful and each time she used them her eyes lit up with fire. In the comicbooks, back in 1996 (I think) there was a story called the Phoenix Force. I dare not explain it otherwise X3 will be ruined for you but I'll just say that this force is insanely powerful, powerful enough to destroy an entire planetary system. This force is within Jean. In the final shot of the film you see the Phoenix rising from the watery grave. It's late, gotta get into bed, laters! |
I saw this movie at the midnight screening last night. The crowd was awesome and the movie was great. I'll have a review later, but hot damn! I cant wait for some Phoenix action!
|
movie rocks !! can't wait to go watch it again :-)
|
phoenix rising sounds insane.
thanks deflok... |
I watched it again last night, even better the second time!!! The Deathstrike vs. Wolverine fight is hardcore!
p.s. Ian McKellan is god. |
How much money you think this will make opening weekend?
Will it beat spiderman's 114 million? i think so =) |
Excellent film.
But one question: How come female mutants are never unattractive fat chicks? |
I caught the McCoy reference, missed the Gambit reference.
Was the kid stroking the Sabretooth tusks at the beginning a reference to something? |
Heh.. the whole theatre gasped when they saw the name LeBeau, Remy on the screen.
|
Saw it Friday Nite.
Pretty good flick I thought, better than the first one. I haven't followed Xmen in years, but I still know enough to appreciate what they've done with Jean Grey and the Dark Phoenix overtures. Also, I thought Magneto was done VERY well in this picture. |
"You are a God amongst insects"
|
anyone else having the same feeling like me ???
I WANT TO GO AND SEE IT AGAIN !!!!!! can't wait, amazing movie :-) ps: where did gambit show up ? I guess I must've missed it :( |
Good movie, even if your someone like me and didnt even realise that half the references were references in the movie =)
notable scenes are the first one with the german guy (OMG that ruled), and Wolverine vs the nail chick (a close second). many other excellent scenes, but i dont think i'll watch it again... or not until i've read some more about the X-Men backstory :D |
I saw it last night and it was totally amazing. Best parts were right at the beginning w/ nightcrawler and when Wolverine just went postal on all the soldiers in the mansion. Special mention also goes to the one scene w/ collossus and when Magneto ripped all the iron outta the guards blood. The matrix trailer they showed before it was tres cool too..
|
The movie was awesome.
I loved it, it was well done, i loved the small details. |
If you missed it, the Gambit reference was in the scene where Mystique was looking through the computer files at the plans for cerebro 2. There was a list of names and one of them was LeBeau, Remy. Nightcrawler was freakin' awesome! He's always been my favorite character and I thought that they did a great job with him. Some of my friends didn't know much more about x-men than what they saw in the first movie, so they thought I was nuts when I got really excited at the last shot over the lake. They didn't expect anything, so they didn't even realize that they were seeing anything more than a funny reflection of light.
Yeah... I'm gonna have to see it again... |
I just got back from seeing it. It was a pretty good sequel though I was somewhat disappointed. Nightcrawler was bad ass until the cathedral scene where he starts spouting off religious references. Why the fuck didn't Collossus have a bigger role? He would of torn all those special ops guys up. He's russian, why did he speak perfect english? Also how come Wolverine didn't remember Yuriko a.ka. Deathstryke? They hooked up in the comics. I didn't like how they killed Jean Grey off like that in end. She could of easily gotten out of the way after they x-jet away. Fuck you hollywood.
|
Jesus Pimp, don't worry, Jean isn't dead!
I agree about Yuriko though, that's two of Wolverine's Nemesis' (or is it Nemeses?) that they failed to develop! I hated the fact that Sabretooth was useless in X-Men 1, and was disheartened by Deathstrike not wanting revenge upon Wolvie... but hey, both movies have been of an incredibly high standard, who am I to complain, at least Wolverine got to snikt some ass. "YOU WANNA SHOOT ME THEN SHOOT ME!!!" |
Colossus should have had a bigger role, when he transformed he looked so groovy, no1 could've beaten him !!
damn though guy :-) |

|
She died in a similar fashion in the comic didn't she?
|
I just saw it and it kicked ass!!!
|
I heard from someone that it was her Phoenix powers that were fuxxoring the jet and that's why she had to get out. I"m seeing it again tomorrow, so if that becomes clear, I'll let you know. It didn't seem to be really obvious...which made her death seem stupid.
|
It does look more obvious second time around, you see that her right hand is with the X-Jet and her left hand is holding back the wave. Nightcrawler also says that Jean won't let him teleport and Storm says "She's controlling the ship!", there's a short shot of the X-Jet's landing gear coming out of the snow thanks to Jean too.
|
I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of cameos in the flick. Collosus was cool, and Siryn! Very nice surprise! Jason Wyndgarde (or Stryker) as Mastermind....didn't hear ANYTHING about that.
Something else I noticed on the computer screens as Mystique was hacking the files....there was a file that said, "Guthrie (x2)" obviously refferring to Sam and Paige a.k.a. Cannonball and Husk. NICE throwaway to us geeks. I felt this movie felt more like one of the comics, what with the mansion being attacked, the team split amongtst the country, and the characters were already established. Can't wait for a third one, when it will be all about Pheonix and Gambit (hopefully!) |
I loved it. I never read any xmen comics so I don't know where or how the characters fall into place. I loved it cause there seemed never to be a boring part of the movie. The best part I thought was when wolverine went apeshit and started stabbing and cutting the swat team that invaded xavier's school. Great special effects and action scenes. Definately one of those movies that I will buy on dvd asap.
|
"You... Put the Knives DOWN!" "I cant!"
|
wow i just saw it ...FINALLY.. and i must say it was great. except the way jean died at the end didnt really make sense, she could have just controlled the ship from inside...oh well have to make way for the pheonix i guess. i hope colossus has a bigger role in the next film, he is my second favorite........next to archangel, who should be in one of these....please?
|
Don't worry, Colossus has been signed for X3 already. :D
|
sweet... more metal man! I wonder what they're going to do with Pyro in the next one? It's been so long since I've read any of the comics that I don't even remember what side (good/evil) that he was affiliated with. Do you think X3 will have his redemption? I'm really hoping that they bring Gambit into the next one. I'd also like to see Rouge take Ms. Marvel's (I think that's the right one) powers so she can start doing more.
On a side note, did anyone catch which of the kids was Jubilee? |
Just saw the movie yesterday. It was great! I really wish I knew more X-Men backstory, then I could apreciate the movie even more. :) I'll just have to do some good 'ole internet research. I can't wait for the third film now. What was the shot of the phoenix in the last shot some people are talking about? All I saw was some water. :p
|
Woo. I saw it today. It was just.. Good lord. I don't wanna lie, so I will just say that it's the best movie I have ever seen. Some of the things I felt made it really good were:
a) strong character development b) lack of ridiculous amounts of poetic license (It could have been worse, y'all) c) accurately capturing a wide range of human emotions I had adrenaline pumping through me through every second of that movie, and I can't say that there are many other movies that have that effect on me. The movie kind of yanked me in, and I was feeling what the characters were feeling, at least on a small level. I cannot wait for the third one. I want to go see the second one again. I don't have too many complaints about the movie, though I know some things were out of place. I liked the movie too much to let a few things that weren't exactly like the comics ruin it for me. If you think about it, if things were exactly the way they were in the comics, the movies would probably be long as hell. I know plenty of people who would complain about that. :p That's an awful lot of details to cover. I can't wait to see Colossus in the next one. That's gonna kick ass. And since they threw Beast (in human form) in there, he -has- to be in the next one. And.. ach. I've rambled on enough. :p |

X2 was one of the best comic book-to-movies I've ever seen. The action was just out of this world! Nightcrawler couldn't have been done better! They definately out did themselves with Wolverine, I couldn't believe how many grunts he stuck his claws in! Now all they need is Gambit in X3...
|
You know, I hope to God that the movie people read things like this online. Because, I have been to several sites boards since the films release, and EVERY board has had some discussion about how they want Gambit in X3.
GIVE THE FANS WHAT THEY WANT!!!! ;-j |
That was great!!!!! I can't wait until part 3! Since I had already heard about the LeBeau file on the computer, I was scanning the rest fo the files...one was for Jamie Madrox, Multiple Man, and there was also a file for Franklin Richards! God, I love being a geek sometimes. All the cameos were wonderful, too.
I think that they did what they did with Yuriko because this movie was about Wolverine's past. Now that they got that out of the way, they can have more to do with the rest of the crew. The Dark Phoenix stuff will be great! Finally, I think that the Sabertooth skeleton in the beginning was a reference to the fact that the actor who played him, Tyler Mane(sp?) died before the second movie...at least I think he did... |
Quote:

The movie rocked. I didn't look at my watch once throughout the 2.5 hour running time... All the references were greatly appreciated. Great action scenes, that was unexpected from Singer. Wolverine was truly savage. Nightcrawler made teleportation even more cooler. Magneto really used his powers. Pyro is good. Yuriko's appearance was good and exciting, albeit short. CAN"T WAIT FOR THE NEXT MOVIE!!!
On another note. I'm sad that the scene with Gambit was cut from the movie, I'm hoping that he'll be in the next film. |
I loved X2. Loved it.
As Nightcrawler is my all-time favorite X-Men character, I was jubilant that they opened the film with him. However, they really didn't delve too much into his past, like why did he have that same patch of skin at the back of his neck that could be used to administer the mind-controlling drug? When did Stryker capture him? Why did he have to be so meek during the rest of the movie? (He is more confident in the comic series.) Regardless, Alan Cumming was perfect in this role and I hope we get to see him again in X3. I'm also a huge fan of Mystique and Beast (Hank McCoy), which has nothing to do with them being (or becoming) blue. I love heroes how have great fighting abilities. Wolverine was great, especially when he let out that primal berserker scream when stabbing the first special forces guy, but he relies too much on his blades. Nightcrawler and Mystique have bad-ass acrobatic, martial arts skills and if they use the fully mutated Beast in X3, we're in for a serious fight fest! I can't fucking wait! |
I liked it, I thought it was great, and I'm a fan from way back. The 3rd one had just better not be called Xmen in Space.
The name that stuck out with me the most on Strykers computer was Jamie Madrox, or Multiple Man. I just wish there was more of the characters, and the best scene was Magneto getting the guard with the iron in his blood. That was awesome. |
This movie was the shit and definetly the best comic-book driven movie ever.
|
I just saw it yesterday and I was really impressed. I couldn't believe that it was over two hours, it sure didn't feel like it. I watche dthe cartoon on FOX quite a bit when I was younger but I never read the comic. Does anyone know a website that provides a kind of overview of the major plots of the comics? Gambit was always my favorite in the cartoon so I hope he is in the next movie. My favorite scene had to be when Nightcrawler was attacking the President followed closely by Magneto pulling the iron out of that guy.
|
What i thought was best about the movie is you didnt need to have read the comics to get absoulte full appreation. Also X2 ruled over the first xmen movie and that rarely happens. This is one sequal that kicked the first ones ass!!!
|
my girlfriend and I went to see it with 8 of our friends and we loved it. Even the girls of the group who never read the comics loved it, and follwed along well. I think after the matrix:reloaded we'll see some Jamie Madrox action in X3 using the technology that fuels the "burly fight scene". Though i hope they leave all the Xfactor/Apha Flight references out..and go for a empahsis on the Dark Pheonix saga and the Goblin queen stuff from the old X-force in the 70's. (please someone lend me a hand here.. i cant be the only person who remembers this stuff).
|
Alpha Flight, bunch of Canadian Superhero homo's that don't get along with the X-Men, they suck and should've been killed off ages ago.

Haha. And I thought I was a nerd just for picking up on the Pheonix Saga. I saw it. It was good. I just have one request for the third movie LESS GOD DAMN WOLVERINE. I mean damn he is cool but there are so many other kick ass charectors that either aren't in the movie at all or just get one line (cyclops for one..) and for what? So wolverine can get another one liner? I mean really. A good chunk of the first movie as well as a good chunk of this one was about wolverine and his past. Make a wolverine movie if you must but in the mean time give some of the other charectors some air time.
|
That's what I think is the problem for when/if they make a Wolverine movie, it'll be no different fromt he X-Men movies! So I'm not sure if it'll be all that great/popular.
All I seriously want out of X3 is Colossus take out whole bunch of dudes like the Burly Brawl in Matrix 2. |
I want a solution to the iceman/rogue cant-have-sex deal... seriously!
|
Because I'm a loser and need to rub it in I have to say it: I'll be watching Matrix 2 before the rest of the world!
HAHAHAHAHA! |
In the Age of Apocalype Saga (from the comics) Magneto and Rogue are able to get jiggy because Magnus was able to create a magnetic shield over his skin that refelected Rogue's powers (I think), anyway that rocked.
|
Plus was it just me or did it seem like Bobby was slightly resistant to Rogue's powers?
|
Quote:
However, I agree that Wolverine gets way too much airtime and Colossus should have been given more ass-kicking opportunities. Also, why couldn't they find a guy with a Russian accent, fer god's sake! |
Quote:
I was referring to X-factor and Alpha Flight because The movie scould take a turn that way considering the whole Jean Grey/ Madelyne Pryor connection when Scott goes back to Alaska for some R&R. Plus that would give the writers an excuse to waste even MORE time on the wolverine side stories. If i were Brian Singer.. i'd ignore the X-factor years alltogether. *whew* okay.. does that make any sense now? |
yeah I found it strange too
|
Quote:
I think i know what your referring to now. But i'm not sure that Alpha Flight had anything to do with Maddie. If i recall correctly, Maddie was a clone created by Mr.Sinister that he created in order to sample Scott's dna and to bring forth a child from Scott/Maddie. The X-Factor referrence makes sense to me since this entire storyline was resolved when Scott was a member of X-Factor. But i still don't get the Alpha Flight referrence. |

Not to mention the fact that she's HIS MOTHER!!!!! Some SERIOUSLY fucked up kids!! |
does anyone know if Gambit is supposed to be in the 3rd movie?
and Rogue did get her powers from Ms. Marvel, her powers put miss marvel in a coma. But if they do bring Gambit in what happens with that relationship. If i remember the comics right Gambit and Rogue have very weird relationship. |
Quote:
====================================== Alpha flight has nothing to do with Madeylne Pryor.. I was referencing Alpha Flight to help move along a possible wolverine side story. For instance: Scott, all weepy because of Jean's death, goes to Alaska to do some soulsearching/mourning. Wolvie in an effort to learn more about his past/ do the whole "lone rebel" thing.. goes to Canada to check out the now destroyed base of operations from X2's villain (Stryker).. There he runs into *shudders* Alpha Flight and then the whole thing degenerates into a musical.. whaaat??... it could happen! |

I really wish that I would have read the X-men comic books as a kid. I am trying to catch up now, but does anyone know of a good website that will give a rundown of the characters and their bio and stuff??
Awesome Movie.....can't wait for the next... |

Well, shit. I forgot all about that, but thanks to the link above, my comic book knowledge has been restored. Heh. Both have blue skin... both have yellow eyes... and yet... *Brain fart* |
Dude.. I totally forgot about that Mystique/Nightcrawler thing... but that's also kinda fucked up... Alan Cumming is like.. 10 years older than Rebeccca Romijn-Stamos
|
Don't forget Mystique raised Rogue, and Rogue had Miss. Marvel's powers before she joined Xavier in the comics.
|
i heard on the radio today that someone counted 42 actual mistakes in the film.
they said continuity mistakes like glasses being cracked and then not, and such stuff was plentiful. i didn't notice such mistakes at all. perhaps these mistake counters were mutant haters. |
I saw it over the weekend. I wasn't terribly impressed. I think I simply expected too much. I didn't understand the ending until now (because of the explanations above). That's just because I haven't read the comics.
|
I noticed a fair few mistakes myself (movie flubs) one major one being when Wolverine kills the first army guy in front of Bobby, when we releases his claws from the army guys chest there are no holes nor any blood.

Here is the list of names appearing on the computer for those that want to know:
Kane, Garrison (Weapon X) LeBeau, Remy (Gambit) Lensherr, Eric M.

Ganguro...I hope that Alpha Flight is nowhere near X3. I think that they've wrapped up the Wolverine backstory, at least for now. Maybe we'll see the Hellfire club...
|
Some Emma frost action wouldn't be soo bad.
The problem with this is unless the writers really bust their balls to write a good story that is somewhat beleivable but doenst mirror the comic books exactly.. the movie is going to suck. This seemingly upcomming period of X-Lore gets really wacky.. with the whole Phoenix issue, clones, and whatnot. If they make the movie scripts mirror the storylines to appease fans it's going to make for a horrid movie. Remember folks, they are basing this stuff off 20-15 year old comic storylines.. so it's not like they started with the best material in the first place. |
good point about the 15-20 year old storylines. I mean someone did mention, this could become X-men in space if the writers aren't careful. Remember the whole Shiva thing and Phoniex destroying that planet in the comics. Hell, they might even really mess with things and bring Rachel Summers in from the future O_o
|
So if they go the Dark Phoenix path will they have <a target=new href="http://www.marveldirectory.com/alienraces/brood.htm"><b> The Brood!?</b></a> and <a target=new href="http://www.marveldirectory.com/alienraces/shiar.htm"><b>The Shi'ar</b></a> I have all the originals from that series, its still one of my favorites

Geez |
some of those moviemistakes are very hard to spot, but most of them are just stupid ... when you watch a movie like a normal person you don't see things like that
|
If they wanted to make it suitable for kids... they would have cleaned up the language a little bit... I mean the teens calling each other Dicks and the S word being dropped several times kinda upset me... (only because I had my 5 year old with me.)
Had he not been with me I wouldn't have cared... Anyway... Maddie Pryor was a clone of Jean Grey and she became the Goblin Queen. Gambit is popular with the fans and the only way they can even possibly bring him in is if they bring in Apocolypse or Mr. Sinister... arguably the #2 and #3 Villians the X-men have ever faced. Test from the WWF could easily be Sabertooth... as could Sean Ohare... Anyway... no one has mentioned the fact that Both Storm and Iceman have the ability to control the weather... Storm with overall control and Iceman with... well... water and Ice. they could have frozen the lake had they really wanted to save her. Why didn't they? Because they really didn't know the danger they were facing... from what I recall they were in the plane already when the Dam broke and didn't know what was going on behind them. I think possible storylines for X-3 could involve The Rebirth of Apocolypse... possibly in the Savage land... which means we would get to see Sauron... who rocks! And we so need to see the Sentinels. |
Sentinels brings in a whole big can of worms, no way i'd put sentinels in the some movie as Apocolypse and his Horsemen, if Apocolypse comes in then you need to bring in Angel/Archangel and others.
|
As much as I would love to see Apocalypse I doubt we'll see him in X3. He's one major bad-ass. I reckon soon enough though (once X3 is made) they'll make X-movies based on these characters and give the series a more comic/cartoony edge, adding in characters like Cable and Sinister and most definately the Sentinels. I'd really like to see the "E is for Extinction" and "Imperial" stories turned into film. Seeing Genosha wiped out would be so scary.

I just got back from seeing it! I absolutley loved the movie.
One of my favorite parts was where Pyro goes ballistic on the cops. You can just see the anger building up in him when he says "You know those dangerous mutants people have been talking about? I'm one of them!". I love dark revenge scenes in movies. (Although I loved kicking his ass in the X-MEN arcade game.) I was excited about that scene ever since I saw the preview. I almost wished Rouge didn't stop him. I am mostly worried how they will do X3. It will be hard to live upt to X2. Personally I'm not too fond of the Dark Phoenix series becuase things just get way out of hand. And yes I do not want "Mutants in Space" I stopped watching the FOX TV show when the Phoenix Saga came on because it was just too rediculous, even for a cartoon. But it was a nice suprise to see the fire on the lake. The Sentinals were always my favorite villians, though I still think they would look stupid on the big screen. |
"I'm the worst one."
I hope Magnus' Acolytes are in X3!!! |
Quote:
Oh... and I agree about the whole Apocolypse thing. Bringing him and the sentinals in in the same movie would be to much... Although I do have a couple of ideas on how it may work. 1. Apocolypse could be behind the Sentinal program... making sure scientist find exactly what they need to find to so they can build the right technology to analyze and counter a mutant's powers. He'd see it as cultivating the strong from the weak... cause only the truly strong would survive. 2. He could rise up after sensing the Pheonix force and kinda be a background character trying to capture it... It seems in the movies... the birth of the Pheonix is an evolution in Jeans Mutant's powers... The kind of Evolving Apocolypse predicted, if you know what I mean. So while the X-men are trying to stop her... he cold be pulling the strings so that he could contain the power for his own good. In the end... it'll look like she died... but she'll actually just be captured and used as a test subject... of course leading into X4. I can say one thing... I've never cared about a movie enough to consider the direction they can take. Someone said Singer isn't interested in doing a third movie... if that's the case I'm not sure what the hell they can do or where they can go. |
Wasn't Deathstrike hypnotized? So her past with wolverine wouldn't matter, as long as she did what stryker wanted her too.

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." Here is a website about Comic Books turned into Movies: http://www.efavata.com/CBM/ Glad |
http://www.superherohype.com is another good one to see the progress on the latest comicbook films.

Info on the making of |
Another flub not listed is the file that is given to the President at the end of the movie disappears and reappears in different shots. It's really easy to spot because the file is bright blue.
But I'll be damned if that's gonna stop me from loving the bejesus out of this movie! |
