As you can all tell, I love Marvel and one of the reasons is because of the amazing villains. A lot of that has to do with their designs, personalities and awesomeness. So here I'm going to tell you my 5 favourite Marvel villains.
5. Magneto: I know in other countdowns of the best Marvel villains, Magneto is the one that's always number, but I feel that there are 3 more that are better. However I do see why he's said to be really good. His best portrayal ever in my opinion was the live-action movies with Ian McKellen and Michael Fassbender. He's very sympathetic with how we see his flashback. And the way he does things is really awesome.
4. The Green Goblin: As I've said before, the Green Goblin is my favourite Spider-Man villain. I think a lot of that has to do with the fact that he's very fun to watch. I actually think he's Marvel version of DC's Joker. They both laugh insanely, they love to have fun while doing crime, they always smile evilly and they look kinda similar. But I prefer the Green Goblin more because I think he's more fun to watch.
3. Loki: Thanks to one of the best villain performances ever with Tom Hiddleston, this villain has become one of Marvel's best villains ever. He's been causing trouble for the Avengers for years and is always entertaining both in the movies and in the shows. The master of illusions and mischief, this guy is no mess around.
2. Doctor Doom: It turns out that Doctor Doom is actually Stan Lee's personal favourite villain. And can you blame him? He's awesome. I mean look at his design.
That is unbelievable to look at. I don't know who came up with this design, but who ever did is a true artist. But on top of that, I like how he's portrayed in the comics and cartoons. I also liked his backstory. Apparently, he was a gypsy as a kid who's father died and mother was a witch taken by the devil. And after he tried to save her as an adult, the machine he was going to use blew-up and gave him a scar which made him angry because his once always perfect face was tainted. He ran away to the Himalayan mountains where he met a group of Tibetan monks and had them make him the suit and he had them put on the mask while still hot which messed up his face even more. I like that. He's also the smartest Marvel villain ever. And the fact that he's the Sothern ruler of Latveria makes him absolutely cool.
And my number 1 favourite Marvel villain is... Thanos: Do I even have to explain this? I mean it's Thanos. He's awesome. I can't wait to see how he's portrayed in Infinity Wars. Considering the fact that even though we've see very little of him in the M.C.U movie but every time we have seen him, he's awesome. So with that, he even said "Fine, I'll do it myself" in the end credit scene of Age of Ultron, must mean he's going to do something soon. But on top of that, I also like him in the Avengers Assemble cartoon. Like Doctor Doom, I also think his design is awesome.
And that's all why Thanos is my favourite Marvel villain.

The Late, Late Toy Show
As I'm sure a lot of you know this, but if you don't, the Late, Late Toy Show is a show hosted in Dublin every year around Christmas. This year's show will be shown this Friday at around maybe 9:30PM and I'm excited. I've been watching it every year with my family and we always have party at our house while watching it. We always get excited about it whenever we hear that it's going to be on and this year all my family will be here to watch it because my dad will be coming home to watch it too because he works in England and we live in Youghal. We all haven't watched it together for at least 9 years. That's how long he's been working there. The rest of my family told me that they all do the same thing. And another we do while watching it is that we always try to win that contest that they always do where they give out a prize to go somewhere to someone who can correctly answer a question they ask and we always lose. But we still always do it. Also, I can't remember what year it was but one time when one of my friends was singing in the show. And I'm sure you all watch it and love it like we do and I cannot wait until this Friday when they show this year's one and I hope all of you who watch it, enjoy it too.

Sora in Smash Bros.
Yeah, I really like the Smash Bros. games. They might be some of my favourites. My favourite character is Sonic. And recently, they revealed that Cloud from Final Fantasy 7 be a new character. Watch.
And for the past few weeks ever since the Smash Ballot started I really wanted to see Sora from Kingdom Hearts to be a character and I thought of his entire fighting moves. Like, his regular fighting moves. And I was think what he could do with something like the final smash. Maybe his final smash could be him using Final Form and using the Oath Keeper Keyblade and the Oblivion Keyblade when he activates it. And his regular weapon could just be himself in either his Kingdom Hearts 1 or 2 out (I personally would like if he was in his Kingdom Hearts 2 outfit because that's my favourite outfit of his out of all the games. And maybe if he's announced, the thing could say "Sora unlocks his way into battle." Like something did with Cloud. And it'd also be cool if Kingdom Hearts characters were assist trophies like maybe Riku or King Mickey or something like that. And the last thing I would really love if he was in it is that I think it'd be cool if they added a stage related to Kingdom Hearts like The Keyblade Graveyard or Destiny Islands or Hollow Bastion or the Land of Departure. And that's how I see Sora working in Smash Bros. And I hope he gets picked to be in it.

My top 10 films I'm looking forward to see as of right now
These are the films that will be coming out in later years and I'm really looking forward to see and I'm sure a lot you are too.
10. Kung-Fu Panda 3: I actually saw the trailer for this yesterday and it got me really excited to see the movie. As you all know, I really like the first Kung-Fu Panda movie and I absolutely love the second one, so I wonder how they'll top it. But I hope they do a good job with that.
9. Batman V. Superman: Dawn Of Justice: I've heard that this is one of the most anticipated movies ever. It's actually the sequel to the Man of Steel movie and that movie didn't get many good reviews. But seeing how I love DC, but I love Marvel 100% more, I do think they're going to this DC Cinematic Universe pretty well. Though I do think the Batman costume here is a little weird. Not the suit itself, I mean the ears. In the Dark Knight, everything on the suit look perfect and cool, but here they seem too small. But aside from that, I'm really looking forward to it.
8. X-Men Apocalypse: In my Days Of Future Past review, for now, that one is my X-Men movie but when Apocalypse comes out, maybe that will be my favourite. It supposed to be the last X-Men movie and I hope they do well and don't end up doing X-Men 3 or Origins again, if you know what I mean. And with Bryan Singer back, I'm sue it'll be a great grand finale.
7. The next Disney Classics: Like I've said before, I'm collecting the Disney Classics that are coming out and have come out from 1-53. I don't know what the next one will be but when I hear about it, I'll be going to it and when it comes out on DVD I'll be adding it to the other ones I've got.
6. The Untitled Spider-Man movie: Now I'm talking about the one that Marvel Studios will be making because they got the rights to Spider-Man back from Sony. And I'm really excited to see Spider-Man in the Avengers. It's one of the things I've been most exciting in Infinity Wars ever since I saw the first Avengers movie seeing Spider-Man's my favourite superhero ever.
5. Star Wars Episode VII The Force Awakens: So you've all read my Star Wars reviews and I said how I'm really excited to see Force Awakens this December. Seeing the new trailers coming out makes me more and more excited. This morning Chris Stuckmann finished his last Star Wars review and I've been following him ever since he did his review for Phantom Menace in May. If you have the time, do check out his reviews, they're very good. He's actually what inspired me to do review for them myself. But aside from that, everyone wait and hoping this movie will be good, and so am I.
4. Deadpool: I'm not sure how Ryan Reynolds is going to do as Deadpool, but hopefully he'll do as good as the Ultimate Deadpool actor. But on top of that, I really like the trailers of this movie and I've seen a lot of reactions for this that are funny and also the choreography of the characters fighting looks really cool. I'm excited to see a movie based on my favourite anti-hero ever.
3. The Good Dinosaur and Finding Dory: The reason these 2 movies are on the list together is because they're both Pixar movies and they're both highly anticipated movies. The Good Dinosaur is coming out near the end of this month and the Finding Dory trailer was released the other day. And given the fact that Pixar is my favourite film studio ever, I do believe that they'll be great films like almost every other Pixar movie ever made.
2. Captain America: Civil War: I've heard this is the most anticipated Marvel movie ever. And while I think there's one that's better, I agree 99%. The fact that a bunch of Marvel heroes are coming together in the biggest like in the Avengers and introducing more and bringing in the ones from other movies like Ant-Man. They're also introducing new heroes like Black Panther. And I think they might also be using the Punisher because that what it looked like in the Captain America Civil War trailer. But still, a lot of people are looking forward to this and so am I.
And the number 1 film I'm the most forward to seeing is... Avengers: Infinity War: Being the sequel to one of my favourite movies of all time, or sequels because this movie is going to be split into 2 parts like Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows movies. But on top of that, Thanos will be in it. Do I even need to explain anymore? I mean, it's Thanos. One of the coolest and best Marvel villains ever. But on top of that, it'll be the biggest collaboration of heroes we'll ever see in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It'll have every single hero we'll see in all the movie that have come and will come and that is beyond absolutely awesome. And given how much we've seen so far, that's going to be so amazing that we'll have to shoot out our brain from the awesomeness. But on top of that, I think the fight scenes in it will be some of the best we'll ever see in our lives. And that's all why Avengers: Infinity Wars parts 1 and 2 are the 2 films I'm looking the most forward to seeing as of right now.
10. Kung-Fu Panda 3: I actually saw the trailer for this yesterday and it got me really excited to see the movie. As you all know, I really like the first Kung-Fu Panda movie and I absolutely love the second one, so I wonder how they'll top it. But I hope they do a good job with that.

My top 5 superhero cartoons
These are the cartoons based on Comic Book Superheroes. I really like a lot and I managed to fit my favourites into a list.
5. Justice League: I actually have this on Kix on my TV and I watch it and I like it. I always think that the Justice League was just like Avengers but Avengers and Marvel are way better without a doubt. But, with great superheroes in the Justice League like Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, the Flash, Hawk Girl and the Martian Man Hunter, they do make a great superhero team and one of the best. But also, I think they're shown as the best in the show. It is a really cool T-V show to watch. Also, after the Batman vs. Superman movie there's going to be a Justice League movie. And then there's going to be a Wonder Woman movie, then a Flash one and then another Green Lantern movie, all in the same universe, just like the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Ah, it's so cute watching DC copying Marvel but always being outdone by the greatest superhero universe company ever.
4. The Ultimate Spider-Man: Something that's on this list a lot are Spider-Man cartoons. And that's because as you know I love Spider-Man and every cartoon I've seen of him portrays him perfectly. What I like about him the most here is that he's incredibly funny. The funniest Spider-Man I've ever seen in my life with great voice performance of Drake Bell. My favourite episode is the Ultimate Deadpool. This one has my favourite Deadpool ever with the comedy and my favourite Deadpool actor. But I also like other things about it. I like the parts in episodes when Spidey's talking to us and the screen goes grey when he's talking That always makes me laugh.
3. Spider-Man The Animated Series: Yeah, one of the most classic Superhero cartoons ever is my number 3 choice. But the reason for that is because if the campiness and the amount of cheesy parts in it. I know it was made in the 1990's, but, wow is it really cheesy a lot of the time. But what I like about it is that it follows the comics really well and what happens in the comics a lot happens here and it's very well done. I especially like the way they do Venom here. And actually, even though at times the actors can be a tad bit wooden, they do still do good performances. And finally what I like as well is that Spider-Man himself is tied much more to the way he was in the comics like I said a second ago.
2. The Spectacular Spider-Man: As I said before, this is my favourite Spider-Man cartoon. I watched the whole show from beginning to end ever since it started in 2008 and ended in 2009. It has my favourite Spider-Man animated action. And I also like the story it's telling. It's also the villains a lot of depth with explaining what happens to them and how they become villains. And the first episode with the Black Suited Spider-Man is awesome.
And my number 1 favourite superhero cartoon is... Marvel's Avengers Assemble: Yes, Avenger's Assemble is my favourite Superhero Cartoon. Why? Well, it has great action scenes, the villains are awesome, the animation is great, the acting's really good, the characters are exactly the same as in the comics and the characters are likable. Given the fact that it's a spinoff show of my favourite superhero movie ever, that's sure to mean that it's awesome. My favourite villain in this is Thanos. He's just so cool and well animated. By the way, this show is on Disney XD like the Ultimate Spider-Man. So yeah, those are my 5 favourite superhero cartoon ever. If you haven't seen them yet, do.
5. Justice League: I actually have this on Kix on my TV and I watch it and I like it. I always think that the Justice League was just like Avengers but Avengers and Marvel are way better without a doubt. But, with great superheroes in the Justice League like Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, the Flash, Hawk Girl and the Martian Man Hunter, they do make a great superhero team and one of the best.

X-Men: Days of Future Past
So now we come to the most recent X-Men movie and the best one so far. Maybe when X-Men Apocalypse comes out, that'll be my favourite. But, for now, it's this one. What's the story? It takes place after The Wolverine and Storm, Logan, Charles and Magneto are arriving in Moscow and it turns out they're in a war against machines called the Sentinels and they've already been around the world and killed many mutants and humans. When they get there, Bobby, Kitty, Bishop, Colossus, Warpath, Sunspot and Blink are all there and they explain what they're doing there. Apparently, Kitty not only has the power to walk through walls, but she also has the power to send people's consciences into they're younger body so it's like time travel. Charles explains that the Sentinels were originally created by a scientist named Bolivar Trask played by Peter Dinklage in 1973. And the reason they were able to create them is because Mystique wanted to kill him because he captured, tortured and killed so many mutants. So one day she found him and killed him but she was captured and tortured herself and the scientist who working for Trask copied her power and gave them to the Sentinels to adapt to any mutant. Charles then gets the idea to have Kitty send his mind into his younger body so he can get to her and stop her from killing him because originally the government wasn't going to allow the Sentinels to be created but after she killed Trask it persuaded them to create them so mutants would never kill anyone ever again, but Kitty says it wouldn't work because he was talking about going back decades so if she tried it, his mind would be torn apart. Logan then volunteers to do it himself because since he has his healing power, his mind would be fine. So later Charles, Magneto, Bobby, Kitty and Logan go inside a room so she can send him back. She does and he wakes-up in his younger body and goes to the X-Mansion. While he doing that, the Mystique from that time is trying to find Trask. Logan arrives at the mansion and meets Hank and Charles, who are still played by the people who played them in First Class. Also Charles can walk because of a serum that Hank made for him. But, so long as he takes it he can't use his powers. Logan explains to them about Mystique and the future. Charles at first doesn't really care but after some think he decides to help. They explain that Erik is in a prison in the Pentagon. They decide to see Peter Maximoff, A.K.A Quicksilver, to help them get Erik out to help them. They do and we get a hilarious scene with Quicksilver showing off his powers. Watch.
And the rest, I won't spoil. So what's good about the movie? Well for one thing, this one has the best action in any X-Men movie yet. And it also combines the cast from the original series with the X-Men First Class and that's really clever considering the fact that every actor does do an excellent performance. Another actor who I think does a brilliant performance is Peter Dinklage as Trask. The fact that he's a great actor already as I've heard and he supposed to be really popular with his performance in the t-v show Game of Throne. I just think he's amazing. What I really like about the film is actually the story and the way it's told. And the end is amazing. I won't spoil it but it is brilliant. I can't believe they were able to do what they did. And also this was the movie that brought back Bryan Singer as the director and he was able to create a really epic movie that everyone loved and was considered to be one of the best superhero movies ever. And when I made my 10 favourite superhero movie picture list I put this one on it. And hopefully when Apocalypse comes out we'll be able to see every single X-Men we've seen come together to have a huge fight with Apocalypse like when all the Avengers will fight Thanos in Infinity Wars. So, everyone, that was all of my X-Men reviews. Hope you all enjoyed them and if you haven't watched them yet, definitely do. Next to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, this is the 2nd best Superhero franchise ever.

The Wolverine
Like First Class, I never saw this film until this year. And to be fair, this film isn't really great, but it's not bad, I'd say it's just O.K. What's the story? It takes place after the 3rd movie and Logan has left the mansion and is traveling the world. One night he goes to a pub to find a man who killed a bear. Then a red haired Japanese woman comes into the place looking for Logan. He then goes into her car and they talk. She explains that a man he saved years ago is dying and he asked her to get Logan to say goodbye. She tells him that he's in Tokyo and after talking with her some more he agrees to go see him. When he gets there, the man offers to strip him of his healing ability so he can have a real life but he refuses. That night the man's Daughter tries to kill herself but Logan stops her. That night a woman named Viper comes into Logan's room and steals his healing ability. The next day, the funeral starts and there's a huge fight that's actually really cool and intense. After that Logan begins to take care of the man's Daughter and we get another cool fight on a train. Watch.
And after that, the movie gets boring and predicable. So let's go over the problems I have. Well, the pacing isn't really that good, it can be boring, the ending is really predicable, not every actor is really the best if you know what I mean and another problem I have is that they cut out a really cool scene I'll show you in a minute. So the good stuff. Most of the cast is good, the action's pretty cool and the twist after the credits is really cool. Watch.
And like I said they cut out a scene with Logan on the plane getting his original Wolverine costume from the comics and cartoon. Watch, it's really cool.
I wish they kept it for the rest of the films. So yeah, this film isn't the worst, but it would go in 5th place if I was ranking them all. I'd say check it out, but don't expect I to be spectacular.

X-Men: First Class
After a long time of 2 bad X-Men movies, we get a really good X-Men movie again. I've never actually watched this movie before until recently. And I thought it was pretty good X-Men movie. I'd rank it as the 3rd best X-Men so far. What's the story? It start with the same opening as the first X-Men movie with Erik as a young boy in the camps and discovering he has mutant powers to control metal. But it's shown that afterwards he was brought to another mutant named Shaw who wants him to move a coin or else he'll kill his mother. Erik tries to move the coin but Shaw shoots his mother and he gets really angry and he begins to move everything in the room metal. We also see Charles as a boy who meets Raven/Mystique and over the next few years they grow-up together. When they're all adults, Charles is named a professor and is given a job to use his powers to test a machine called Cerebro with another mutant named Hank McCoy, A.K.A Beast. Also one night Erik is trying to kill Shaw as revenge for killing his mother. However he almost drowns by doing so but Charles saves him. Some time later some mutants are locked-up like Raven, Hank and a few others. Then Shaw infiltrates the place to try and recruit them. One does join him and one dies when Shaw shows that he's a mutant too with the ability to absorb energy. When Charles and Erik arrive and see what Shaw's done and decide they need to fight him. And with that we get a really entertaining scene when they're all training. So what's good about this movie? Well I love the cast. The best ones being James McAvoy as Charles and Michael Fassbender as Erik. They do some of my favourite Marvel performances ever. However I never really got into the movie until after the scene when Charles saves Erik, but it wasn't bad, I just thought the rest of the movie after it was just a lot better. My favourite part of the whole film is the ending with the fight and the scene when we see how Charles lost his feeling in his legs. Watch.
Another thing I like is the way they portray Beast. I think he's portrayed the best here next to his role in Days of Future Past. Mystique is also portrayed really well here and you can sort of sympathise with her in this with what she has to deal with. And I also like the other X-Men who are helping out at the end. And Shaw actually is a really cool villain I really like him at the end and the way he dies is awesome and ironic. And it explains how Erik got the helmet to keep out telepathic attacks and mind control. And actually Logan is in this for a split second and it's hilarious. Watch.
So yeah, I hate the 2 movies that came out before this but this film saved it by having a good story, good acting, good action and a good ending. It is great definitely check it out if you have the time.

My thoughts of Toy Story in Kingdom Hearts 3
I heard about Pixar being added to Kingdom Hearts 3 and I am really excited about that and I started thinking about how some movies could work as worlds in the game and here I'm going to tell you how I think a Toy Story world could work in it. It could start with Sora, Donald and Goofy being turned into toy versions of themselves about Woody or Buzz's size and they're in Andy's room and they meet his toys and they all talk about what they're doing there and the toys explain about Andy. Just then Heartless show-up and maybe Woody or Buzz can be your partner. As you're fighting Andy begins to come into the room and Woody tells Sora, Donald and Goofy to freeze and they do. And maybe through the fight you could constantly have to press the Triangle button to freeze as Andy keeps coming into the room during the fight. When the fight is over we see Woody is jealous of Buzz and we then see Sid outside the window. That night Woody accidently knocks Buzz out the window and everyone sees it and the other toys insist on having Sora use his Keyblade to kill him but he refuses because he believes Woody when he says it was an accident and because they're friends. Just then Andy comes into the room looking for Buzz but can't find him. So he takes Woody, Sora, Donald and Goofy, after seeing them and thinking his mom got them for him. As they're going in the car Buzz sees Woody and leaps onto the car. When they get to the gas station, Buzz pushes Woody out the car and they fight and Sora, Donald and Goofy get out to try and stop them but then Andy and his mom drive off. Buzz and Woody separate leaving Sora, Donald and Goofy. They fight some Heartless and Woody convinces Buzz to come with them to Pizza Planet. When they get there Buzz goes into the crane game and Woody, Sora, Donald and Goofy follow him. In the game, maybe some of the alien toys could be Heartless, though not likely. Sid then gets Sora, Donald, Goofy, Buzz, Woody and one of the aliens in the game and take them back to his house. There they try to escape but meet Sid's mutant toys and think they're going to hurt them so they go back in the bag. The next morning he torchers Woody and he already done something to Buzz, Sora, Donald and Goofy. And all that stuff and when Woody makes a plan with the mutant toys, Sora, Donald and Goofy, they get out and get Stud out. They eventually manage to scare Sid and try to run to the moving van but Scud follows them. Buzz, Sora, Donald and Goofy jump on to Stud to help Woody. Woody then tries to get R.C while Sora, Donald and Goofy are fighting Scud the same way you fought Lucifer in Birth By Sleep as Ven. And while Buzz is on R.C trying to get to the moving van, Woody is getting beat-up by the toys in the van. And maybe you can be fighting Stud some more while trying to get to the van. Maybe when it's over the keyhole could be one of Mr. Potato head's parts or something else and maybe the Keyblade you get could be called Play Time. And maybe when you revisit it you could meet Jessie and Bullseye and you could fight the Prospector and Lotso, and that's the way I see Toy Story working in Kingdom Hearts 3.

X-Men Origins: Wolverine
And now we come to the worst X-Men movie ever, one of the worst superhero movies ever and one of my least favourite movies of all time. I've recently watched reviews of this movie and they all said it sucks and I agree 100%. I could not believe how horrible this movie was when I first saw it. Nothing in this movie is good. What's the story? It starts off with James Howlet, A.K.A Logan as a boy who is sick and who's father has just been murdered and he then realises he has retractable bone claws and he murders the man who killed his dad, but it turns out that man was his real dad, I'm sure they stole that from Star Wars. He then runs off with his brother named Victor played by Liev Schreiber and as they grow-up they fight in both World Wars and are soon recruited by William Stryker played by Danny Huston to be part of his group to get something. While going they meet Chris Bradley/Bolt, Fred Dukes/Blob, John Wraith, Weapon XI and Wade Wilson/Deadpool played by Ryan Reynolds, who is portrayed his worst here. They go to a camp and steal a meteor with Adamantium. When they leave they fight more people Logan tries to stop them from killing anyone. He then decides to leave. Years later he falls in love with a woman named Kayla and while they're together we see some of the most boring stuff I've ever seen in a superhero movie. Then one day Victor kills Kayla and Logan finds her body and swears to avenge her. He finds Victor at a bar and they fight. Victor wins and breaks his bone claws by standing on them. The next day Stryker finds Logan at a hospital and offers to fuse his bone with the Adamantium in order to help him defeat Victor. So later he takes him someplace that is not Alkali Lake which is stupid and he gives him new Dog tags with "Wolverine" on them and they start the processor. As it's going the heart monitor that Logan is attached to flat lines but eventually it starts up again and gets angry when Stryker says to one of his workers to erase his memory and he gets out and it looks absolutely nothing like it did in X-Men 2. He even cuts his way out instead of going out the door. He then goes into a shed belonging to a man and woman who give him the jacket from the other movies but he leaves it behind at the end so how did he get it back? And on top of that, we have to watch even more boring scenes with them. And we see horrible C.G.I scenes with Logan checking out his Adamantium claws. And the rest, I won't say. So I'm going to say the 10000 problems I have with the film. The special effects look horrible, the acting is horrendous, the story is all over the place, the pacing is really bad, they don't even try to connect it to the other films, Wolverine is so out of character and they make look like a baby, Gambit is only in it for 5 minutes, the fighting looks really weird, none of the actors, even Hugh Jackman, barely try to make the characters charismatic, the story is told really bad, nothing works, nothing adds up, it's really weird to look at it at it and you all know my biggest complaint is the way they portray Deadpool. They sew his mouth shut. What idiot thought of that idea. He supposed to look like this...
... but instead he looks like this ugly thing.
And even then, he's defeated way too fast. And you all know I love Deadpool and so here I hate it. There's going to be a Gambit spinoff movie and I hope they portray him better there and make him look like he did in the comics and cartoon and hopefully we see him again in X-Men Apocalypse. And the continuity was all off. We even see a horrifying C.G.I looking Patrick Stewart as Charles. So yeah, this movie is rubbish. There was absolutely nothing good in this movie. And coming from me, that's saying a lot. I'd say definitely skip this horrible movie.

X-Men 3: The Last Stand
And now we come to the first bad X-Men movie, and I agree. Why? Well, let's look at the story first. What's the story? Sometime later after the 2nd movie, it starts with Logan and Storm training Rogue, Bobby, Kitty and Colossus. Also Cyclops is still sad about Jean's death. He then leaves to go to Alkali Lake. While he's gone, Charles and Storm talk about how he wants her to take his place as the principle of the school which he was going to give to Cyclops but ever sense the whole thing with Jean, he's changed. When Cyclops gets to Alkali Lake, he hears voices in his head and shoots a laser from his eyes into the water. And somehow Jean comes back. They then kiss but something has happened to Jean and when they do, she accidently kills him. Logan and Storm go to Alkali Lake themselves and Logan finds Cyclops' glasses floating in the air. They then find Jean and bring her back to the Mansion. Charles finds out that another personality inside Jean has awoken and is taking over her. Later Jean wakes-up and Logan asks her where Cyclops is and she remembers what she did to him. She then leaves the mansion and Charles tries to use his powers to find her but she's now stronger than ever and is trying to block his telepathy. Later Magneto releases some more mutants to join his brotherhood like Juggernaut and he's trying to destroy a cure that can stop you from being a mutant. Then Logan, Storm, Charles, Magneto and his brotherhood all go to Jean's house to find her. However only Charles and Magneto go in and Charles tries to talk to her but Magneto keeps interfering and saying things that make things worse. Eventually Logan and Storm fight 2 of Magneto's servants while Jean begins to literally disintegrate Charles and he then explodes. And that is a huge problem. Magneto then takes Jean away and Logan and Storm come inside the house to see Charles' wheelchair empty. And the rest, I won't say. So I'm just going to say the 1 or 2 things I kinda liked in this film. One thing is that I thought Kelsey Grammer as Beast, he was pretty cool and some of the action scenes are O.K. But aside from that, it boring. Not the most boring, but still boring. And my main problem is that they kill off main characters like Cyclops, Charles and Jean. Also, why was Jean back? They didn't need to bring her back. And also this movie wasn't directed by Bryan Singer. And that's another problem. The reason is that he went to direct Superman Returns and both those movies came out the same year, 2006. And also why did Jean go crazy, I didn't like that either. And what was the point of having Angel in the movie, he was completely pointless. So yeah, I couldn't find much to like in this movie. A lot of the action didn't look that good, the cast didn't really offer that much and the story was all over the place. It's not the worst but it is the 2nd worst. To be honest, I'd say skip it.
