"Hey, we've got a great thing here!...and this thing has, in part, put us on top of the world. Oh wait...I've got a great idea!! Let's jump off the top of the world to our death, taking this really great thing with us!!!!! YIIIPPPPEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"



That 'thing' is Bryan Singer's outstanding work on the "X-Men" movies.



Could Fox have done anything more idiotic!!!! (read first)



So it looks like the new "Superman" film will be vibrant with human emotion and great character development, not to mention fantastic visuals. But "X-Men" has seen it's best days come and gone, thanks to Fox not liking their star director playing in other studio's yards; they canned Bryan Singer's contract to direct "X3"!



SSSTTTTTTUUUUUUUUUPPPPPPPPPPPPPIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Cut to Heston from "Planet Of The Apes"...

"YOU MANIACS!...YOU FIRED SINGER!!...aaawwww, damn you....GOD...DAMN YOU ALL TO HELL!!!!!"



This echoes even more my thoughts immediately after the first viewing of "X2"; no matter what happens next, THIS is "The Empire Strikes Back" of the "X-Men" movies. That rings true even more so now. As the Cinescape article says, Singer leapt at the chance to direct "Superman". I recently read an article where he stated the Richard Donner version was his inspiration for breathing life into the characters of "X-Men" as opposed to being just all flash with no emotion. If he continues to be attached to The Man Of Steel I will eagerly await the new film! But it's just really, really, really, REALLY SAD he is no longer Fox's only GOOD driving force behind "X-Men". Now it will dip into "Terminator 3" land. Yuk! Wouldn't be surprised if a few actors who are on the fence contractually decide to bow out because of Singer's absence...and well they should!



Fox...YOU SUCK!!



O.K. so the only way you can make it up to us is to wrestle the ORIGINAL "Star Wars" trilogy from Lucas and put it out on DVD. I'll take nothing less!! ;) Yeah...this'll work!
