The more I read about this, the more I like. The story sounds cool. Just hope they can maintain quality of the intimate character scenes and relationships...
"Bryan did a brilliant job of interpreting what existed in the comics, taking all that information and really doing a great visual interpretation of the movie. If you give the same comic to 10 different directors, you'll get 10 different movies. But going through the other two movies, I really understood why he made certain decisions, and they made a lot of sense. I think I would have made different decisions. But because these two movies pre-existed and I love them and I'm a fan of them, I was able to follow the tone of the first two movies, which helped me decide on the type of movie that X3 was going to be...."
"...What I didn't change was the plot. The plot of this movie, in my opinion "” the concepts of ''The Cure'' and the Dark Phoenix "” is brilliant. What I changed were set pieces, the location of where the third act would take place, for example. Every day we were working on making the script better and when I say ''script,'' I mean the relationships among the characters and the placement of the scenes because I'm very much into transitions. When you make a film, you're not just shooting like 50 little movies. Every scene has to connect with the next. It was a much bigger canvas because it was a much more emotional story. The story "” whether you're an X-Men fan or not "” is very relatable. ''The Cure'' is a very strong issue. "
