trinityvixenThey can change the ending, but can they make X-Men: the Last Stand not suck for the rest of the movie?
It's hilarious (that's sarcasm so deadpan, I can't even italicize it) that they actually advertise that they're putting trailers on the DVD. Not trailers for the X-Men movies, just trailers for other new releases. I can't wait. After I get through listening to Brett Ratner's optional commentary track (I like that it's optional; god help me if I ever had the misfortune to watch that movie again and listening to the man who cheerfully ruined the franchise was mandatory), I'll be sure to surf right on over to watch the trailer for Ben Stiller's latest hysterical farce. I mean, if it's soooo funny that it merits mention next to the "Easter eggs" (WHY THE ABUSE OF PUNCTUATION!?! WHY?) that promises to be dynamite (Beast reads Shakespeare? Get out! He can read!? That totally blows my perception of him as being just a fuzzy animal dude! Wow!), it must be one AWESOME Ben Stiller movie. That fact that it's being bundled with X-Men: the Last Stand doesn't say anything about it, nope. We can just conveniently blame the studio for making both steaming piles.
And no offense, I love Stan-the-Man, but releasing a "collector's edition" set of with a comic book he wrote isn't exactly a draw. I've read some of his recent stuff...ayeah, not his best. He's old. Let him rest on his laurels, won't you? Make him show up in every Marvel adaptation ever, even those he had nothing to do with (is he making a cameo in Iron Man!? I don't know!) until he dies so that we might have a veritable legacy of three-second shots to remember him by (Aww, remember when he wa getting a hot dog at the beach in X-Men when Senator Kelly came out of the water? Or when he was talking to the old TV-show Hulk playing a security guard in The Hulk? And saving people from falling debris in Spider-Man 2? Awesome!).
