    X? Your thoughts puleeeze

    I finally was able to watch this Movie, and I just have to say it was the worst unredeeming work I have ever seen. What I mean by unredeeming is the storyline. The action was awesome, the animation superb, but I just hated that story.
    Right now I am trying to get some of the OVAs/TV series to see what that it is like, hoping it will be a bit better..

    Please, for the sake of Heaven and Earth, if you have seen this movie, please comment :)

    Yeah, I heard the director of X was going for a battle movie, so he didn't care about not letting people in on the plot. I haven't seen it, guess I'm not going to.

    Since I'm so interested in CLAMP, though, I'm anxious to find out if the new TV series is better. That format gives a little more time to work on the story and character development that were in the manga.

    I liked it. I liked the fact that all these people had powers. It could have been a ton better, but it was good.

    I know it's probably a dumb question but there's a movie? How is it? Is it good?

    It's my Favorite Movie! Along with Mononoke Hime! I watch it every time it comes on T.V. (which isn't very often) and I gotta get the DVD. See? My sig is Kamui! I need more! Gotta watch the movie again but they won't play it for me!

    Earth dragon, Heaven dragon, What the hell, Why does fate have to be related to alternate dimensions and dragons loosely connected to the characters, that aren't developed any way.

    Now that I've said this, I wanted you to know that I only saw one movie if there is any others and it started with a stupid girl in a bubble explaining fate... Then suddenly in a park with a strange water producing man where the girl gets taken in a red ooze and the best friend follows suddenly losing all emotion (all character) shortly after. the main character might as well be fighting him self for god sakes. I found every thing gay and boaring other then the action scenes and the best character develoment in this where the lightining guy and the katana women like eachother o and the little girl added somthing too.

    So the story line is pathetic attemp to support the action scenes blew and they would have been better off making the "dragon people" mutants*_* They could have done alot better.

    <What the hell does all this babble mean? Please edit it to make sense. And next time, Use the Spoiler Code.> -DS

    Yes. I actually have the DVD so.... i can watch it whenever i want...


    I think the movie shouldnt have started out of nowhere.
    Also, i like how some of the poeople die...
    The dragons could have looked cooler.

    Top complaints about X:
    • What's up with all the Rose Petals?
    • The movie started in the middle of nowhere
    • The dragons could have been so much better
    • The big dipper... Seriously, come on ..
    • They should have talked a bit more.

    I have only seen the movie but to tell the truth it was really stupid. It didn't really make much sense and it was pretty confusing.

    I love it. The powers and how everybody is so cool. The only people I don't like are Fuma and his sister.
