"I'm the Juggernaut, Bitch!".

Comic book fans are notoriously hard to please. Stray too far from the source material and we'll storm the message boards like Attila the Hun on crack. However, if you keeps things too traditional by sticking too closely to the original comics then...we'll storm the message boards like Attila the Hun on crack. It's a fine line that bigwig producers often fail to understand in their attempts to earn the big bucks through the lucrative world of superhero blockbuster making.

How can everyone be satisfied in that kind of situation? Quite often, they're not and then our beloved comic book icons are left hung out to dry. We've all seen it happen and it's going to keep happening as long as comic book movies keep making money.

There were a lot of issues with X-Men: The Last Stand. I know it, you know it and even Brett Ratner knows it, but one of the biggest problems with the film was how they portrayed the Juggernaut. As one of the X-Men's most powerful enemies, fans had high hopes for his introduction in the third movie installment. They should have known better.

The redesigned costume was lame and it was disappointing to learn that the fraternal relationship between the Juggernaut and Charles Xavier had been cut, but the final straw came when Vinnie Jones opened his mouth. "Don't you know who I am? I'm the Juggernaut bitch!" The accent was terrible, but the dialogue was a thousand times worse.
