JUGGERNAUT!!!

who will be played by Vinnie Jones (Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels, Gone in 60 Seconds, Eurotrip)(Cool guy by the way)

movies.yahoo.com/shop?d=h...29&cf=prev

Greg's source happens to be AICN, the same site that revealed Sandman to be the new villain for Spider-Man 3. Unfortunately, AICN's link is not working. But I am a bit skeptical. Juggernaut? When the ending of X2 somewhat revealed the Phoenix? Could they be in the movie together perhaps?

If that be true, then it'd be interesting. Noting X3 shall have the Phoenix in it, whatever story was building up with Magneto and Pyro and JUGGERNAUT!

Though the amount of CGI that would involve worries me a bit. Still, at least it's not Sinister.

I dunno, the fact that they allow Juggernaut to be in X3 now bothers me. Sure, its no Sinister, but I was hoping it was leaning more toward like...White Queen or QuickSilver or someone else that was more fit for a low key movie role.

{Not low key, but like for a good 2 hour movie with a good plot-who would you have? Juggernaut or White Queen-Hell I'd even take Black Tom Cassidy or that chick that ruled in the Savage Land...Sauron ;_;}

Juggernaut HAS to be a side vilian-he didn't DO anything of significance without the aid of others until way past X-cutioners Song. He'll he didn't do jack 'til Phalanx, and even that was meager....

I'm not really surprised by the choice of villain, but Vinnie Jones? Why? Surely theyed need someone the size of the really big guy from Troy.

Also I'm kinda hoping Sabretooth'll come back (if he's done better). I just hope Colosus gets some freakin' film time other than his little moment in X2.

I heard about this the other day. Different source, mind you, but I have no ideal in Hell where he got it from.

C'mon, sure Juggernaut has been named the 'new villain' for X3, but that doesn't really have to mean he'll be the main villain for that movie, right? *Crosses fingers, and silently prays.*

I guess Juggernaut would be okay but I would have liked to see that Society...with the Black King and the Black queen...for the life of me, I have forgotten the name of it...but the White Queen was part of it and they were also the ones behind the emergance of Dark Phoenix...

Either that or Apocalypse, who is the villain of Xmen Heroes 2...or whatever it's called...bad memory...

Yeah, it was The Hellfire Club who revived Dark Phoenix. Thanks to Mr. Sideburns are too big :p

I doubt they'd feature, seeings as the ending of X-2 seems to have established The Phoenix's existance for use in the third film.

I second that as Gambit is my favorite X-Men.(or is he my 2nd favorite, hmmm?)

It's actually heavily suprising that they were able to go 2 films with Remy and Hank only appearing as cameo roles in the original movie. Noting Hank was an original member and is very well known, and Gambit is just as popular as Cyclops, Storm or Wolverine.

I do hope we see the card master in the next movie. He's getting no love these days.

Personally, I say Angel's been sort of unaccounted for. Really.

Gambit needs the lovin' of all. 😀

Specially the lovin' from the girls. ;D

** notices that he came from one of the most abused to one of the least choosed characters in the Marvel vs. Capcom series (which for the purpose of this post includes X-Men vs SF and MSH vs SF) **

If he were to throw 52 cards in that game wouldn't it be called "52 pickup" XD

Juggernaut is alright I guess, but I agree the Hellfire Club would have been pretty cool. Personally, I'm not so knowledgable in X-Men, I've read the 5 Essentials X-Men. I really do like Colussus, so I hope hes used more than the tiny role he played in X2. If only Wolvie hadn't turned him down...

This casting gave me a great idea for a two-panel cartoon, which I'd post if I had access to a scanner at Uni. Think The Gazza Incident, but replace him with Wolverine...
