Saw this today at the apple quicktime site: [X2 Trailer](http://www.apple.com/trailers/fox/x-men_2/sizes/medium.html) Looks interesting - music from the generic ‘we haven’t written the soundtrack yet’ file - _Mars the Bringer of War_ From Gustav Holst _The Planets, Op 32_ ---

The absolute worst part of that trailer was when it said: May 3 2003. That’s half a year away. I finally know why they call them teasers. ---

Not bad, not bad at all. But I wanted to see more of the mutant kids kicking tail! Stupid May 3. Too long, I tell you. ---

Am I the only one for whom it said May **2**? ---

Stupid **Submit** button. What I wanted to say was, are they going to pick up on the hints they gave us in the first movie that something’s going to happen with Jean Grey? (I’m thinking mainly of the long pause held on her while Magneto’s mutant-making machine was working and we saw her flinching as though she were being affected by it.) Doesn’t Jean Grey go on to become the Antichrist or something in the comic books? ---

Jean sorta goes ballistic in the all-too-complicated continuity of the x-verse. It’s in a story arc entitled entitled “The Dark Phoenix Saga” a rough history of how that happened is here : [http://www.uncannyxmen.net/db/spotlight/showquestion.asp?faq=10&fldAuto=63&page=2](http://www.uncannyxmen.net/db/spotlight/showquestion.asp?faq=10&fldAuto=63&page=2) And as for the trailer, mmm, looks good. ---

The trailer was OK, but I didn’t see Nightcrawler anywhere. I know he is in the movie, cause he is credited on the imdb. ---

Mmmmmm… **Wolvie.** Where did I leave that back massager? 😉 BTW, the incredibly slow download time was MORE THAN worth it when it scared the crap out of Mr. Kitty… I had the speakers turned up a little higher than I thought, and he’s here dozing while taking his asthma meds, and then Wolvie (mmmmmm) came on screen yelling, and Mr. Kitty jumped about a mile. The look on his face was priceless. ::snicker:: I’m a baaaaaaaad wife. Oh, and **KtK** , it says the second for me as well. -BK
