Has any of you guys read these books. I mean 1 and 2 and if you guys did, are they any good. at amazon.com I read a small ecerpt which was kinda cool but i would like to know if they are any good
thanks

I read the first one.It was quiet good and I read the whole thing even after seeing the movie.Their's a few things they add in and things that they add more detail to.

cool

Ok thanks mr. smiley i think i will buy all of them. i never knew they had these.

One cool thing about them is they add in the intro scenes that never made it into the movie,so you get more of a history about Cylclops and Storm.

Hope you enjoy!

I read both books. They are great. Even after seeing both movies you notice new things in the books and they expand on some things that they couldn't do in the movies. It would of been nice if some of the things that happen in the second book had made it into the movie but you can't have everything. I also read the one based on Fantastic Four movie and Spider-man 1 but the X=men ones were the best.

Yep, and there's a part in the X2 novelization when, at the moment that Professor X was targeting the mutants, a certain Cajun ( ) from somewhere was playing cards and it suddenly exploded. Hank McCoy also transformed into his blue form because of it. In short, the mutants all went nuts and their powers went haywire during the Dark Cerebro scene in the book.

It wasn't included in the movie however, because Bryan Singer said they didn't have enough money to do it.

I can't wait to buy these books. You guys made me really curious.

are they released before the movies? dontgetit

Yes.

And I forgot to mention, in the X2 novelization, Jean Grey never "died". She was just blinded because of her fight with Cyclops. That's why when the X2 movie came out, everyone, as in everyone was shocked towards her death and the hint of the Phoenix at the end, lol. Nobody saw it coming. Even the part in the trailer where she parted the water was very subtle, lol.

The book does portray her powers evolving though.

well, then it cant really give you away what's gonna happen, unles they change this on X3. Better thi way...

i see no sense on buying it bfore you watch the movie they should be released later...

Exactly, lol. I know some diehard fans who were pissed (but in a gentle, "oh shucks" way) because they read the books before they saw the movie so some of the scenes were already spoiled for them, lol.

you guys are making me drool big time

BuffyMitch also try to get the jr novel they have photos in them also. I lone my eldest neicee my Jr Novels and she tore and stoled the photos from the Jr. Novels which got me mad. I'm also going to get the i can read Xmen books for my new necee so when she gets older I can read them to her.
