A Welsh Girl In Leeds favourite, Mr Hugh Jackman to the left there(see here, and here), has been lighting up my life again in Xmen 3: The Last Stand. I staggered along to see it Saturday afternoon with a steaming hangover, hoping that the combination of popcorn and Wolverine's body hair and muscles would make it better.

And it did! Its a very good film, although I was a bit disappointed that more X-Men weren't included. The focus was very much on Wolverine which, lets face it, isn't a bad thing, but being an X-Men fan, I wish more of the blue-suited ones had been included. I have a few suggestions for improvements-
  • Wolverine should have forgotten all about that simpering Jean Grey and got it together with Rogue, as we all know should have happened.
  • Wolverine should have been shirtless more often.
  • When Jean Grey made his belt fall apart with the power of her mind, she shouldn't have stopped at the belt.

But yes, a good film - go and see it. Apparently a few other people agree with me as well. It had the fourth highest American opening weekend ever.

See - never underestimate the power of good body hair.

    Wolverine cures hangovers... why didn't you mention it before?

    There's me suffering away for the last 10 years, all I needed to do was look at a mutant.

    I'll remember for next time!

    I finally got to see it this week, can't believe it's taken me so long. Unfortunately, most my friends aren't big on SuperHeroes! What losers they are!

    I was on the edge of my seat, couldn't believe how many people lost their powers or "died" ;)

    But yes, I totally agree about Wolverine needing to remove his shirt more. Infact, with the upcoming Wolverine movie being an almost definite, we should form a letter to 20th Century Fox just to make sure there's plenty of nekkid Wolverine!!
