http://www.apple.com/trailers/fox/x3/large.html So dark phoenix is working with Magneto?
are we going to see some sort mental confusion along the lines of White Queen fucking w/ phoenix? And how can they create a truly horrible cosmic force be scary if it's just working for magneto? We're gonna have to wait and see how this pans out.
So someone dies? (S P O I L E R S)
I'm not really against this. Early reports have suggested that Cyclops and Prof X get the axe. Now how can they make a dark phoenix story line without her husband? Oh right because they made cyclops an uptight asshole who is barely in the other movies to create an admittidly more interesting, but adulturous relationship between Jean and Wolverine. As for killing off Prof X that could be good, because comic writers have always had a hard time tying up the professor (because after all if he is as powerful as he's supposed to be he could simply just use his powers to stop every problem in the world), and so this would be a convenient way to take him out of the equation. However, this would leave Storm as the leader of the X-men. I have no problem with this except that Halle Berry is the worst thing to happen to these movies (and partially how Storm has been written, but mostly just her).
Beast and Angel and Kitty Pride and Colossus and Juggernaut and no Nightcrawler?
It's cool they're bringing in these new guys even if villains like Juggernaut and Calisto (which means morlocks too) and others are just there for fights. But how could they get rid of one of the coolest characters of the series so far? and replace him with what? Angel has never really been an interesting character, he has wings and he's rich, yeah who cares? god loving teleportation demon? that reeks of depth. At least Beast seems to be showing off the dual role of smart guy and fighter, he could be a good addition.
At least it looks like we'll be getting a good and large fight between Mutants which has been sorely missed in both of the movies so far. And storm flying? it could be interesting, but I want them explicitly say that she has a strong Mutant ability to keep her lunch down if all she's able to do is just spin around like they show. At least the secondary mutants they show make it seem like that the powers will be different enough that it's not just simple pair ups like we've seen although I foresee Iceman and Pyro goin' at it, and probably Colossus and Juggernaut, damnit never mind.
But really it's a pretty decent trailer, at least it doesn't give too much away and is fun to watch.
