So basiclly they turned a major villian into a short hit and run. But honestly I don't remeber a guy with tallons in that scene. I'll have to go a watch it on DVD b/c all I remeber is the guy fireing stakes at Wolveriene.
But I think that this is a perfect example of how much stuff they tried to cram into this film. I mean even the Danger Room scene was ass! I mean really all this movie was about was lets see how much junk we can dump into this movie. Ex. Angel really small role, Beast never had his past explained which I think would have made more sense for the cure storyline, Juggernaunt being a mutant first off but his role was also super short, I felt that the Phoneix storyline was kinda there, it really didn't do much except cause another problem for the X-Men, I mean Wolveriene and friends.
Speaking of Phoneix, I might be off here but my understanding of the way the Phoneix story was progressing based on X1 & X2 the reason Jean started to have Phoneix powers in X2 was because of the events in X1. After Magneto's mechine is destroyed Jean is the only one who coughs and she looks "affected" by the event. Then in X2 Scott even says to Jean that she hasn't been the same since Liberty Island. So I thought that Phoneix was going to be the result of Magnetos mechine. I suppose you could argue that the mechine released the dorment Phoneix but I still had the feeling that this storyline was dropped.
Personaly the only good things I can say about this movie was the action, CGI, and when Iceman went all the way ice (that scene was bad ass!). Otherwise this film was very dissapointing.
