Just enjoy the movie as a movie and stop worrying about how faithful it is. I didn't see anybody kvetching about how many changes The Two Towers made from the original book. That's because we were all having fun in the movie theater, and we didn't really care. Why can't the same be true for an X-men movie?

Two Towers was far too well done for me to care. Some movies, however, get to the point where flaws can tamper with enjoyability. X-Men 2 is a fun movie, and I'd watch it in the theatre a few more times given the opportunity... but I'd have enjoyed it even more had it stayed remotely close to characterizations and timelines.
It just reminds me of how Spiderman kinda just squirted out webbing, rather than making cartridges. It messes with too broad of an area, methinks.
