X-Men, the Good and the Bad

[przed]

Saw X-Men with a couple of mates tonight, and enjoyed it immensely. I continue to be a big old Michael Fassbender fangirl, and the scenes with him and James McAvoy were lovely and slashy.

But if anyone heard an agonized scream around 9:20 p.m. EST, that would have been me realizing that they hadn't included Take That's Love Love single in the end credits of the North American cut of the film.

Bastards.

Ah well, at least they don't seem to be blocking the video for it here in Canada anymore, so you can watch it here

We didn't have this either, so thank you for heads up.

I have never seen Michael Fassbinder before - I reckon he ran away with the film!!!

I reeeally want to see this movie. Hopefully I can scrape together enough $$ to go to it. And that video was really great, so thanks for sharing!

Well, it's somewhat comforting, if baffling, to know the song's not just missing in the North American market. I mean, heck, you actually know who Take That are over there.

I'd seen Fassbender in Hunger, a fantastic if tough arty film about IRA hunger striker Bobby Sands, and he was fantastic. He and Christopher Waltz also pretty much ran away with Inglourious Basterds. I'll pretty much watch him in anything these days.

I'll be keeping my fingers crossed you get to see the movie. It's pretty fab.

Glad you enjoyed the video. (I'm determined to spread the Take That love, one person at a time. *g*)

Not at all? *annoyedface* They didn't have it at first when we went, but after, you know, the credits that people actually watch with the pictures and stuff, it then came on. Flatmate #2 and I stayed till the bitter end doing the Love Love dance moves (along with a bunch of other diehards who were I think hoping for a post-credit teaser thing and were also rather disappointed!)

Yay for unblocked video though! *g* I do love that Take That have got involved with hands down the least subtextual big screen m/m love fest of the year - it seems appropriate *g*

I also stuck it through to the bitter end (I always do; comes of being a film major) and no luck on Love Love.

Definitely yay for unblocked video. And Progressed has shown up on iTunes Canada! I'm downloading it as I type. (I gave a bunch of the songs a listen on hellyeahtakethat last night and was suitably impressed. Can't wait to give them all a thorough listen.)

Since they're the least subtextual m/m love fest band on the planet, yes, it is appropriate. *g* (The Erik/Charles vibe was lovely. And oh, the hurt. And oh, the comfort. *veg*)

I've seen Robbie Williams live, does that count?

Clearly I need to get of my arse and see Inglourious Basterds!

You definitely need to see Inglourious Basterds. It's a bit uneven, but there are some brilliant set pieces, and Fassbender is brilliant in it. (It is also, being Tarantino, way violent, just so you know.)
