X-Men 3: The Last Stand
What can I say that hasn't already been said about the most disappointing entry in the X-Men trilogy... well considering these things have all been already said:
"Michael Bay's Schindler's List." - Walter Chaw, Film Freak Central
"This is a stupid, hateful, ignorant movie" - David Corelius, eFilmCritic.com
"Lacks character develoment and is poorly directed" Just about every other critic's review on RottenTomatoes
I'll admit this isn't the worst movie, but considering how surprisingly good the first 2 were, X3 really craps on the series. It's like Brett Ratner figured there were too many characters, so he kills them all in the first half and replaces them with really, really lame substitutes. For example: Porcupine Guy (He actually kills a guy by hugging him) and Angel - in the comics, a legit and real character, but here he's just a teenage heartthrob who literally has 2 lines the entire movie and just flies around with his shirt off. Also there's Multiple Man, who despite being the funniest character by far, shows up, gets caught and we don't see him the rest of the movie.
In conclusion, Brett Ratner has no clue what the fuck to do with a movie that doesn't involve a sassy black man or Jackie Chan. You gotta believe Ratner was just looking for a way to squeeze Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan into this movie, man. They're his frigging meal ticket of course he was!
This is getting off topic right now, and don't get me wrong, I love Jackie Chan, but is that guy ever not being a complete goof? Every time I see him he's getting into some sort of mischief. Always with a silly look on his face. What's going on with that guy? Should he still be doing his own stunts? Isn't he, like, fifty?
Jesus Jackie would you stop fucking around?
Forgettable Quote: Storm - "Are you ready to do what's necessary when the time comes?". Screw this movie, seriously.
Possible Saving Grace: Just like you thought when you were watching the X-Men cartoon in grade 5, Kelsey Grammer is the perfect choice for Beast.

why the hell did i not know about this sooner?
hahaha because you obviously don't pay enough attention to me and the goings ons of my internet life
it's very kind of Brett Ratner to put his name in all his movie titles so people downloading flicks into their SonyBrain or whatever shit they're going to have 100 years from now will know to stay the fuck away
Agreed!
