I watch this show every Saturday night, basically because I'm so disappointed with SNL. The show lost something great when Cheri Oteri left. I have to say that out of the entirely talented cast, the funniest member is Mo Collins. Her characters, Trina, Stuart's Mom, and my personal favorite, Lorraine, kill me everytime I watch it. Also watch it for Stephanie Weir, Aries Spears, and Debra Wilson. They are much more talented than some of the SNL members, I guarantee it.

X2
(2003)
...still in shock...
26 May 2003
I just saw Matrix: Reloaded the other day, and yes, in many aspects it was far superior to the original, but as far as the best sequel so far this summer, I hafta give it to X2. and here's why...
1) It had much better character development. Neo and the gang were pretty much the same from the first, but you actually felt for Bobby Drake when he "came out" to his parents, and his younger brother's actions. The love triangle between Cyclops, Jean, and Wolverine was top notch. The scenes between Storm and Nightcrawler give the impression of a budding relationship
2) It broke some new ground, special effects-wise. Don't get me wrong, Matrix: Reloaded had some pretty cool scenes, but I felt it was nothing new. The first 10 minutes of X2 is a great example, plus lots more of Storm, Iceman, and Colossus's brief scene stand out
3) X2 had a better set up of things to come. X-Men 3, anyone?? I completely forgot about the guy at the end of 'Reloaded'
4) A very interesting human villain, (granted, he's much different in the comics) which made the X-Men's struggle against humanity feel a little more personal.
So those of you who loved the first X-Men, definately see this if you can't get in to 'Reloaded'. Oh, hell, go see it anyway! A good 2 1/2 hours well spent!!
