It’s hard to explain…he’s like a monkey.
Well, finally went to see X3 last night! I enjoyed it, though not nearly as much as the second one. There was a new blue character (they seem to feel the need to add someone blue to every film…)X1: Mystique (coolest mutant EVER. I want her powers…and her body)
X2: Nightcrawler (also very cool, with the WOOSHing and the almost killing the President and all that)
X3: Beast (mostly just blue and hairy. Had no idea what he did until about the last 20 minutes of the movie.)
(BTW: I am aware of the hilarity of this picture. I chose it because it went well with the subject heading of this post, which was Lawrence's explanation of Beast when I asked what his powers were...)
Anyway, it was cool. And I want to go back in time and be in whatever brainstorming session it was that they came up with all these crazy powers. From the last movie alone, I noticed mutants who could do the following:
-Create shockwaves by clapping
-Grow rhinoceros horns out of their wrists as projectiles
-Be a giant ember that blows hot smoke
-Extend and retract porcupine quills out of their entire body at will
And those were just the weird ones.
You know what I find odd though? The mutants only have powers that could be used as weapons…I mean if the mutation was THAT random, wouldn’t there be someone out there whose mutation was say…the ability to poop bunny rabbits? Or, being able to control the length of your nose-hair (which, granted, could be useful if you’re a 65-year old man…but otherwise not so much)? Talk about a raw deal eh? I think I’d rather be blue and have something cool than be normal-looking but have a crappy power.
Mostly I just want to be Mystique. That power would be waaaaaaaaay too much fun :D.
