yeah, i really don't want to publicly admit how hard the last stand made me cry at points. especially the whole plot involving rogue. hello, destroying the sympathetic character much?
I just...second movie puts in this hardcore comparison to teh gay, right? And then there's the original flawed concept of anti-mutant bigotry = racism (with Professor X as MLK and Magneto as Malcolm X, supposedly), and then you have these people who are mutants voluntarily surrendering that the moment a way out is offered. Like, what message is that? "Assimilation is good?" Idgi.

I'm still saddened by the shift of Brian Singer from the X-Men movies. That guy knew his stuff.

I'm just saying, I was already disinclined to check it out. :(
Want X-movie reboot, plz. Well, reboot back to X-Men 2, anyway, with Singer-directed 3 and no stupid mutant vaccine.
Or rather, a more interesting way to handle the intended elimination of mutantkind.
