*squeals loudly*

X-Men 3 trailer description! *bounces around the room like a Tigger on crack* See, I have my problems with the production so far, but at the same time, I desperately need to see that trailer. Oh, yes. Know why? For this ...

Pyro: "Bobby, didn’t your mother ever tell you not to play with fire?" (Igniting fire in his hand that lights the cave)

Iceman: "No, John, my mother told YOU never to play with fire." (Hovers an ice ball in his hand)


Oh, my God, am I seeing what I think I'm seeing? Did they give my baby more of a backbone? And snappier dialogue? And put him and Pyro in a cave together to fight it out?!

*flails like mad while loving on Bobby like WHOA and falls to the floor completely and totally dizzy*

Dear God ... I don't ask for much, but please, please, pleeeeeeeease make this movie not suck.

AAAAAAAAAAAAHH!!

I need to see that trailer NOW, damn it! NOWNOWNOW.

Especially that shot of Iceman and Pyro. For the thinly veiled homoerotic subtext dramatic tension, see.

Wow, that's really exciting! It actually sounds like it could be halfway decent.

That's pretty much the watchword in movieverse fandom these days, isn't it?

I know ... for all the problems that I've had with the third movie so far, the trailer doesn't look like it'll be bad. (And only sixteen days until it's released. Woohoo!)

And you're excited about this dialogue? Fantastic Four got crapped on for "Now, let's not fight..." "No, let's" and this is roughly a billion times clunkier.

This description of the trailer looks really really fake to me, because it's designed around making geeks fangasm instead of actually promoting the movie to the mainstream.

Honestly. *has already chewed fingernails down waaaay too far*

I will give it credit, though -- if that's correct, it could make a really good trailer. (Of course, that doesn't mean the movie won't suck, but still. *crosses fingers*)

Are you KIDDING me!?! "No, let's" is just stupid. This one actually makes sense with the characters and their history in the movies so far. Plus, it shows that two best friends are seriosuly fighting. It's not just bad guy vs. good guy. That's a pretty significant insight into the plot. In Fantastic Four, we know Dr. Doom is bad and she's good. That's totally different.

I'm really hoping some of that dialogue was slightly mistranscribed from memory, because the grammar makes me cry.

Ah, fans. All these spoilers have been yanking us around but still we hope. :P

Dude! That makes me happy just knowing there's going to be Pyro-plot resolution at all! For the longest time, there was no information on IMDb or anything whether Aaron Stanford was staying on.

Uh, right. All I get from the scene is that Pyro's mutant power involves fire, and Iceman's mutant power involves ice. That's real deep insight into their conflict.

Yeah, the two characters have an interesting history, but I only know that because I watched the last movie, not because the dialogue here reveals so much about them. And "didn't your mother tell you not to play with fire" is a really cliched line for a guy weilding fire to use. I feel like I'm reading the script to The Year Without A Santa Claus, and Iceman is about to say "You always were a little...hot headed, John!"

Yeah.. John's line is pretty cliched, but I don't think Bobby's is. I only think it WORKS because of their close friendship. That's not shitty writing. "Let's not fight," "no, let's" could be used between any two people, this couldn't. That's why it sucks less.

Then again we obviously just feel differently about it. I like it, you don't. It's just.. how could you say it's worse than the fantastic four line? Jeez.

I love you fandom crack dealer :)

John/Bobby is one of the few slash pairings I actually support - this makes my fangirl heart flutter!

You'll probably hate me, but supposedly this isn't real. Then again, these days on SuperHero Hype, they're disbelieving everything. There've been a LOT of illegitimate spoiler 'leaks,' so keep that in mind.

That said ... Wheee!

It would sure be nice if it IS the trailer ... not least because it sounds as if Cyclops has a decent part and isn't getting offed in the first 5 minutes of his screentime! :-D

You get cocky Bobby, I get Cyclops acting like a leader.

Amen. I'm not asking for much. I just want Bobby to get more screentime and some better dialogue and some more time to go all out with his powers. :)

And if it isn't real ... well, hell, I wouldn't be surprised, but it makes me happy, so I'll live in denial for a little while longer. ;)

I'm going with fake, unfortunately. If it's real, its not a very well-written description.

Cyclops has tears in his eyes. We can see his eyes?

Rogue screams for Iceman. Wouldn't she yell Bobby?

Yeah, I know it's nitpicky, but its two things that make me feel that, if it is real, the guy didn't give a really clear description.

Bwahahahaha! Even if it's fake, somebody needs to write that as fic. Oh, yes.
