X-Men

X-MEN 3: go see it! be sure to pay attention when rogue goes nuts because wolverine told her that he is going to kill professor X… watch her face, it’s hilarious. and then be sure to watch when archangel loses his wing to magento… the graphics are awesome.

I’m sitting here (Wed May 10, 2006)
