X-men: The Last Stand

I walked away feeling rather unsettled. I didn't know that there was a continuation after the credits. I feel so cheated now. Sigh. Nevermind, I shall try to be as unbiased as possible (disregarding personal feelings at the moment).
X-Men was enjoyable. I didn't plan on watching it. But the story line was not bad, it wasn't great either. I just feel like I should've watched the other 2 movies to understand it better. Maybe I would have.
Cinematically, wonderful effects. Like Storm's weather inducing abilities. And the lake scenes with Scott were good. But, gah, things happen. X-Men, they become decimated. Which was why I felt unsettled. So many died. So many withered. How can they BE the X-Men any more???
Getting back to shots. Some were really good. The Golden Gate part was. There was this scene, a white room with a caucasian guy dressed in white and the blue guy in black. I thought that the colouring struck out very much. White representing the pure humans, black the mutants? Hmmm, something to think about. By the way, who's the director eh?
