couple quick things! first, the movies looks fricken awesome!!! although I still am a little more excited to see POTC:2 Dead Man's Chest.
second, Ian McCellan and Hugh Jackman fits their characters perfectly!!!!!!
Patrick Stewart is a perfect fit. Some of the rest are decent but could be better. While maybe its the writer's fault, Wolverine is a wuss compared to the comics (they didn't even have him say bub until the second film), and while Ian does a decent job of getting Magneto's personality right, he's too scrawny and old for the character. Don't get me started on the horrendous job they did on Sabretooth and a few of the others.
Not to mention one of the biggest oversights of all, Gambit (he'd be one of the easiest characters to write for, and would add some nice comic relief).
Now, if they'd make a Wolverine and Gambit movie and let it have an R rating, then we might have something.
All the same, they have been entertaining, just not up to the level of the comics, or even the old animated TV show. I will see the third film, although it sounds like its going to be worse than the other two from the previews I've seen. Not sure if I'll catch it in theaters, I probably will if any of my friends want to see it, otherwise not.
