Just the first 2. Ive not seen number 3. Don't get me wrong I'm not an x-men snob, I'm not one of those up in arms because of big screen protrayal of the comic book characters wasnt up to scratch. I just thought the pace of both movies was wrong, I found them very slow and ultimately uninteresting. Thats just my opinion of course, I know there are many people that disagree. I know Singer didnt direct X-men 3 so I might get around to picking that up on DVD, but I wont be watching it at the cinema.

Yeah, the third installment was directed by Bret Ratner aka the Hollywood socialite. He's good friends with a lot of famous celebrities, and he's frequently reported in tabloids.

Ratner also directed the Rush Hour movies and my personal favorite Family Man. He also made Jessica Simpsons' Boots Are Made For Walkin music video. It was... okay.

I haven't seen X3, but most folks who were fans of the first two complained that there wasn't much story. Basically, the third film is "supposed" to be the final X-Men movie - believe it or not. I myself, do not believe it, but at least during the production, everyone including the director Bret Ratner believed it was the last X-Men film. Hence, it's just a fun little showcase of all the old and new mutants who they thought would look cool in the big screen.

Well like other recent remakes, It got cooler visual and sound effects. The story? Didn't notice much .

Hey, so you say this movie has nothing new? What about the fact that superman "did it" with lois, and they have a child? That is a *small* stretch, since how could the little fella have pushed that grand piano perpendicular to the man attacking his mom?

Oh, and if anyone here is old enough to remember actually seeing Superman (I and II) on the big screen, then this was a welcomed experience; being in a theater and hearing that same old score as before.

But the kid thing was immensely obvious and as for the 'welcome experience' of being back in the cinema hearing the old score again if that was the main point of it they could of saved a ton of money and just re-released the old ones!!
