I like the comic books more. The comic books are more in depth. The movies are pretty good, but any movie adaptation tries to condense the story too quickly and loosely. Comic books have a little advantage over this by having several books, volumes, and ultimate collections. These usually interest the smaller fanbase that want to experience more of the X-Men world. For the general audience though, the movies suffice in their condensation.

I think before someone actually makes this distinction, they have to have actually experienced all three, comic books, cartoons, and the movies. The trick is that cartoons, comics, and movies are three totally separate entities. First, the comic is usually stylized, and can be drawn to compliment the story itself (i.e. a funnier X-men comic could be drawn more like a cartoon). While a serious one is drawn with high contrast, and detail. This obviously is the first step or tier, off where the other two stem from. Now, who wants to see the same exact story three times? Cartoons are usually based more towards kids, and a lot of violence, blood, and death is taken out. The movies try, and take a step beyond the comic to wow us with visual effects. To keep things changing up, they change the story, the characters, and do things like kill off Professor X and Cyclops. I personally like all three. And while, I enjoyed the last movie, and many fanboys would argue against it because it strayed so much from the comics, I believe that they should change the story to appeal to a wider audience. Plus, anyone who has read the comics knows that dead never stays dead. I personally prefer the comics, as they are more flexible in their style of telling a story.

The comic books work for me. The storyline in the movies was played out more than twenty years ago in the books.

the cartoon X-Men Evolution was a good show, but i think they took it off the air... i han't come across it in several years. i love the movies (though i have yet to see the third one)... might be half the reason i love that show Heroes (it is the equivilant of LOST meets X-Men)

i prefer the comics myself- simply because they are more authentic and that it was the X-men's original origins. plus, in the films the directos matthew vaughn (x-3) and bryan singer (x-men 1 and 2) left out gambit and didn't make jubilee one of the members of the x-men.

I like BOTH the X-MEN comics and the X-MEN film franchise.

Both. But X-Men 3 sucked.

I'm a big fan of Collossus and Wolverine. I'd like to have seen Gambit as well.
