Sexy mutant for X-men 3?

To be honest it was fair… Its not even in the top five, maybe ten, comic book movies of all time. (IMHO)
This I agree with. I'd put Batman Begins, Superman, X2, Spidey 1&2, Hulk, Blade 1&2, The Crow, Hellboy and Sin City ahead of it. The first X-men had some very cool parts but overall didn't do much for me. I wasn't even looking forward to X2 until right before it came out and the trailers got me interested.

What is the #1 comic book movie of all time? Christopher Reeves's Superman? How can you beat a movie that has Marlon Brando? :\

Anyhoo...

Rumor has it that Nick Stahl of Carnivale may be a shoo-in for the "Angel" role in X3.

Blade 1 AND 2?!?!?! Can't agree with that. The first Blade I can see if you REALLY like Blade. The mere presence of Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellan put X1 above Blade 2.

Well Beast has been confirmed to be in X3. Kelsey Grammer is going to play him. Big, furry, blue him. Also I doubt Angel will appear in X3 because the wing x-ray in X2 was the start of the wings for Angel but they cost too much money to finish.

Check out this tread And Angel will be..

Oops missed this, I'll have to give it some thought but as much as I love Christopher Reeves portrayal of Superman it suffers cause its not my favorite character. (It is quite good though and does beat the first X-men movie, and might beat the second one too.)

Let me think on it...
 

Does anyone else keeping thinking Angel the ensouled vampire instead of Angel the winged X-man every time his name is brought up?

Nope, a winged mutant named Angel has been around far longer than Angel the show…

First Appearance: X-men # 1 (Uncanny)
Lost Wings: X-factor #14
Became Archangel (metal wings): X-Factor #24 (with a cameo in #23)

That’s all from memory so maybe I’m just programmed to think the other way around. ;)

nope, it could be a generation thing - how old are you?

but I'm nowhere near as erudite as Brother Shatterstone:)

Actually if you want to know my dirty little secret everytime I hear the word angel I start humming Amy Grants song 'Angels Watching Over Me!!!!!!

Ah, thanks. :o (Its easier when you have most of the comics in question, I don't have X-Men #1 (The series that turned into the main uncanny title, and also have a "full" run, I'm missing 2, from issue 150 to the current issue. (#462)
 

And I'm 19...though I've had an uncle who's 11 years older that had all the comics. Most of my first exposure to X-Men was through his comics, and they had Angel. Angel was always the coolness...never liked the whole Archangel thing, though.

But, from what I've found, very few people know of Angel. They usually think of metal-winged Archangel.
