Deleted X3 Scenes
Filed under: Action, Fandom, Comic/Superhero/Geek, Remakes and Sequels
The DVD version of Brett Ratner's installment in the X-Men franchise, X-Men: The Last Stand, is coming soon to a store near you. However, If you find yourself unable to wait for the scant week remaining, and you just must have some new X-action now, you can surf on over to Comics2Film (make sure you find the posts for September 25th) and check out five new extended/deleted scenes from the upcoming DVD release. It is nothing phenomenally mind blowing, and the DVD will certainly have tons more to offer, but it is new material with Marvel mutants in it, which has to be worth something for the X-Men fans out there. Oddly, I don't actually own the second X-Men film, and I'm not in a big hurry to go out and purchase part three, either. I enjoyed both of the flicks at least enough to merit an interest in DVD purchasing, but I'm wary of buying them before they launch in a fancy trilogy set which I know I'll desire. Anyone want to place wagers on how long before the X-Men boxed set including all three movies and yet more "never before seen footage" appears on shelves everywhere?

The Tuesday before "Wolverine" is released in theatres. Obvi.
But maybe there will be a set with all 3 movies + Wolverine + Magneto + some other spinoff someday. So you may want to wait until 2015 just to be sure. Oh... and pick it up on Blu-ray.
In the mean time, how long till they give me the animated series DVDs?

I'd say there's a good chance the super box set (which will no doubt be announced with groan-inducing headlines featuring variations on "X-Box") should drop into stores some time around the release of the Magneto movie.
They may suddenly develop an urge to make less money next year and postpone the box until the more high-profile Wolverine movie in 2008, but what are the chances of that?

This entire film should have been a deleted scene.

There's a set of all 3 movies at Target on Tuesday (not sure if this is an exclusive or not), right along side X3 by itself. No doubt they'll release another edition whenever another x-verse movie hits.

Yeah, by that logic you should wait until the inevitable "X-Men Trilogy and spin-offs" set - and that's assuming they don't make any more direct sequels.
I like the films, but not enough to care overly about extras. Besides, one making-of featurette on a popcorn blockbuster DVD tends to be pretty much any other - the only half decent extras that were really worth anything came on the Lord Of The Rings expanded DVDs.
So I'll be picking this film up in a couple of days.
