X-Men 3 Starts Shooting

Despite all the bad news and the departure of Bryan Singer, I’m still looking forward to X-Men 3. Yes, the X-Men franchise is probably about to take a turn to suckville… but I’m still excited about seeing it.

Having said that, the wheels appear to be fully in motion as shooting has begun for the 3rd installment of the X-Men saga. The good folks over at SuperHeroHype give us this:

The official New Zealand website for director Brett Ratner’s X-Men 3 has already come online, however some of their cast and crew info is old and has changed. Just click the link to check it out.

Also, scooper ‘Corvalis’ sent us these first two pictures of second unit shooting for X-Men 3 that took place on Sunday, July 24th in San Francisco. The shoot involved a crew of 15-20 members and involved a shot of a camera looking towards Alcatraz.

The 2 pictures he’s referring to are just of a couple of camera crews.. .but still it’s good news. I have to admit that for a little while there I was starting to doubt this film was even going to get made at all. Heck… I still have my doubts. I still half expect Fox or Marvel to pull the plug on this thing. Here’s hoping it keeps rolling.

  1. Such a bunch of naysayers! give the film a chance most people thought the original X-Men would suck, me included so how about a little optimism here. I know Fantasic Four was a HUGE mockery of all comic movies have achieved in the last 5 years but hey the comic has really cheesy too!

    I still feel that this movie still has potential Star Wars went through all these kinds of problems back in 1977 and look how successful that turned out to be (not including the prequles)

  2. When are we going to see climactic battles with the HUGE CG SENTINNELS????? COME ON already!!

    Still not going to see this one. The comic book movies are getting worse than those fake ads we used to see in old comics.

  3. No, Magneto wouldn’t let a shotgun bring this movie down. He would bend the barrels or stop the blast with his powers. So no matter what we do, this horrible movie will be made. Maybe if someone made an exspensive thick plastic gun and used frozen hamburger for bullets, then the shooting should begin with a blast from a rifle or gun.

    Here come the spin-offs!
