***IMPORTANT – THERE WERE SOME TECHNICAL ISSUES WITH OUR HOSTING COMPANY WHICH MADE THE AUDIO EDITION UNAVAILABLE FOR A FEW HOURS. THE PROBLEM IS NOW FIXED!!! THE WAR ON TERROR CONTINUES!*** Today on the Audio Edition, to commemorate the opening of X-Men 3 on Friday, Doug and I submit for your approval and entire episode dedicated to the X-Men film franchise. In this episode we cover:
1) How Superman set the standard for Comic book movies and then went to crap with #3 and #4
2) How Tim Burton’s Batman redefined the comic book movie and started whispers of the X-Men
3) Batman 4 killing the genre
4) Casting rumours for the first X-Men
5) X-Men resurects the comic book genre movie
6) X-Men 2 tops it
7) The crap hit the fan with Director troubles, Halle Berry demands for more screen time, too many characters, the loss of Nightcrawler, budget restraints, short production schedule… things didn’t look good for X-Men 3
8) Promo material for X-Men 3
9) The ending after the credits that we had on The Movie Blog but had to take down.
All this and a few things more.
