Matthew Vaughn who was attached to not only X-Men 3 but also the Thor movie before leaving both, had some words with MTV on what could have been.

When asked about X-Men 3 Vaughn had this to say.

"I was a little bit shocked when I saw it."




"This is my love letter to superhero movies," Vaughn told MTV News of "Kick-Ass," which hits theaters Friday. "And I tried to put all the ideas that 'X-Men' gave me into it and then working on 'Thor' [as well]."

"I've been thinking about doing a comic book movie for a long, long time, and I was just bored of nearly doing it and not doing it. ['Kick-Ass'] is like an explosion of everything coming together."

"No offense to Ratner, but I just felt that it needed more heart," Vaughn said of the finished product. "That's what I thought was missing. I was a little bit shocked when I saw it."

"That sort of thing makes an audience really fall in love with the characters," Vaughn said of the importance of building an emotional stake, rather than just throwing people in tights on the screen.
