    well....in so many words.....yes.....

    in the marvel universe, jean grey and the xmen were on a mission in which their space craft was falling apart. in the porcess of trying to save her comrades, she gave up her life. in return, the entity known as the phoenix bestowed on her the greatest power known to the world. better than any mutant.

    after awhile she bacame bad and started killing and destroying. so the alien race known as the shi'ar killed her during a trial for her crimes (on the moon)....

    we later find out that jean grey wasn't really dead, the phoenix took her form and life as she lay on the bottom of the ocean healing. so the phoenix died but jean didn't.

    there have been two other phoenixs as well. madelene, who was a clone of jean made by apocolypse and jean's daughter from another timeline (i forget her name)....


    this is of course, just the mere tip of the iceberg...

    WRONG !!!!!!!!!

    always base the thread on the THEAD NAME and the 1st POST... the eventual replies can never be controlled....

    I was asking about the COMICS or whats with this SAGA thing in the comics..nothing directly releated to the movies....

    so i mention here the DVDs... you will move this thread to the DVD sections... geez... you guys are so UP TIGHT....

    Hey he's mentioning DVD's. This is nor the DVD news forum Tisoy.

    Yeah then ending was to do with the phoenix saga. GF, as the credits started to role the camera panned over the ocean near where the events of the film took place, well you see this weird Orange shape in the water. That shape is of a mystical bird known as a phoenix and was the identifying Mark of Phoenix in the cartoons and comics. Still they better come up with a good explanation as to why she became the Phoenix because I don't recall them going to space in the last 2 movies.

    On a side note very nice to see that Jubilee had another cameo, and was it just me or was Rogue HOT in this film.:angel"

    Thumbs up

    nope.. not just you.. she was hot.. as was Storm, Jean Grey. I loved what they did with Mystique this time around. It was just so nice to see it all turned up a notch this time around. Everyone using their powers more intelligently and more effectively.

    Spoiler:
    I love the way Mystique set up Magneto in the prison with the extra iron in the blood. Very smart of her. Also very similar to what Mag did to Wolvie in a certain comic when he pulled all of his adamantium from his bones through all of the pores on his body. Killing wolvie in the process.

    I have heard that the robot Sentinels will be a big part of the next movie.

    Continued next message.

    Everyone notice the little cameo of Dr. Henry 'Hank' McCoy/Beast on the TV in one scene. NO he was not big blue and hanging from a lamppost. It was him before he conducted the experiment that is responsible for his odd physical change. It is rumored that he was written out of the scipt early on due to CG limitations and time. Now that the Hulk is on the blocks I would say it is VERY possible we would see ol'Beasty in X3.

    Spoiler:
    I would also have to say it is very possible that we may the the Pheonix in the next movie. If you can envision what it would be like to see some of the same teamwork we saw in this one take place in the next one - up against the ever so huge Sentinels!!! with the Pheonix on the X side!!!! wow. (drool).

    Continued next message.

    On the final note I will simply add that I really love being a manager at a movie theatre sometimes. This YEAR being one of those times. I really enjoyed this movie and you might be suprised at how few movies do get such a review from me but I find that all in all, more often than not; these days movies lack a certain degree of effort. While I do admit that some deffinately step above the bar and set new standards; many will simply rely on intense visuals and a very poorly acted/writen work at play.

    Blah blah blah.. shutting up now.

    End of Rant.
