Why Bryan Singer left X-Men 3?

Started by mr.smiley4 pages

Characters done wrong:

Storm. Horribly.
Cyclops. Too immature.
Rogue. She's too timid.
Iceman. Too serious. Not a joker.
Magneto. Too pompous.
Sabretooth. Too stupid.

"The only improvements were Pyro and Toad. The rest were horribly decharacterized. Which is why I am happy that Singer left. Good movies though."

I actualy like sabretooth better in the movies.The comic version,for the most part was a loudmouth

toad was a good improvment.
sabertooth needs to jus...be somewhat louder in the films ..not too much though

mystique is great in the films.
Jean is also well done.
Logan is a perfect match imo. just too much of him
the others i can stand. except X2's pyro. i didn't like him in that one. the first films (in the short scene he had) portrayed pyro much better. as he was joking around in class.

Even if Singer really did not want to direct the third, he already did two of them, dedicating the past, what, six or seven years of his life to those movies. Does he not have a right, as a director, to want to move on to something else? I'm a fan of Bryan Singer even before X-Men. I'm really grateful that he did those two movies.

Besides, Matthew Vaughn seems like an excellent choice. Layer Cake looks good.

it's just funny how singer said everyone was so close knit and that the cast and crew are the same just like the lotr trilogy.

He was full of crap.Don't get me wrong,I like singer,I just think he's making a mistake.I think his take on superman will play like the poor mans spiderman

Singer: I would never live the xmen movies...I love the xmen, I love the cast and crew here I would never leave..never , never , never!

DC big wig: we'll pay you more money to do Superman.

Singer: up up and and away I go later mutatnt freaks!

He wanted to do both X-Men 3 and Superman, but Fox wanted to release this film by 2006 in direct opposition to the Superman Release (May 2006). Singer was given a choice to direct one of them. He chose Superman.

I hope Brett Ratner do a good job with X3. I loved Rush Hour 1 & 2 and the chilling movie Red Dragon.

Obviously the studio is not prepared to wait for Bryan to finish with Superman Returns, because he has indicated in interviews he was prepared to take on X3 at the completion of that project.

I just pray X3 lives up to the first 2, regardless of who is at the helm.
