Comrade Snoota had this to say about (_|_):
They should have just started Rogue off with her super strength and invulnerability. Or at the very least had her gain them in the first movie before being found by Wolverine. She's nothing without them.
Where's the southern accent?
Guess she absorbs that, too. 
Let's review, with that new information:
Delphi = stupid
Only disappointment to me was the lack of Gambit, but at least there was a reference to both him and Beast. [ 05-03-2003: Message edited by: MorbId ]

ACES! Another post by Comrade Snoota:

Yah, but that's a whole movie's worth of storyline in and of itself. Besides, that was something she gained as a villan. It would take a MAJOR rework of the character to explain how she got those powers.
And I kinda like the idea of starting her off without 'em. With 'em, she was too Superman to be interesting within the plot/character development of a movie.

Comrade Snoota had this to say about Robocop:
And without them, she was the sux and a pointless character.
It made her a better plot device in the first movie.
I can't say anything about how they handle it in the second yet, I haven't seen it. But they do handle it well in X-Men:Evolution, so I was hoping that they managed it here too.
Am I to take it they didn't?
She kissed Iceman. Twice. The first time nothing at all happened. The second time was a longer kiss and he got hurt, but just enough for him to pull away from her. And the only transfer of powers was her exhaling frost after the kiss. There was one mention of, "We're in love but can't touch!" towards the start of the movie, and that was soon forgotten as the next time they're alone together they lock lips and then go on as if nothing happened.

Not really. There are no plot spoilers below, but I blacked it out because people like to whine anyway. Feel free to read why she sucks in the second movie!She kissed Iceman. Twice.

She's wearing really thick lipstick? 
Damn, that rocked
Absolutely rocked
Colossus! I almost got a woody when that giant, armor clad brute stepped through the secret door and turns to Wolverine and goes, "I can help you." I was like, "YES! FASTBALL SPECIAL, BITCH! EEET IT!" and then Wolverine was like, "Help them!" and I was like, "FUCK YOU BITCH! FUCK YOU AND YOUR STUPID FUNNY HAIR!"
Too much iron in your blood...

Gambit. I'll see the movie someday.

A comic book movie sequel that surpasses the original, which was itself a badass movie...
And OP needs to just be forcefed being made to watch the old Captain America, or Flash TV shows, or any other numerous TV/Movies that use Comic book styles and costumes as to just how completely stupid he sounds about wanting to use the X suits, or follow strict storyline/strictures. Geez, Movies do not comic book make, and visa versa. Not an attack on your person, but at least on this subject, it just makes you sound relatively dumb when it comes to design elements.
Batman went the more comic route... Who here can say past the first, the second one being only SLIGHTLY within saving graces, were they even remotely good movies past camp factor harrassment. Well the main reason for that is because then went comic style. Same with Superman, and just about everything else.
The Shadow... Fantastic Four... The list goes on... And if they had done it to the X-Men it would have been laughable, and if X-Men had been laughable, Spideman would not have happened, nor would Daredevil or any of the other coolness comic book movies coming out. As well as thier sequels. Comic fanboi's of which I am one, just not the whiner on technicalities kind, that whine about costumes and strictures whould never ever be allowed to go near a movie studio lot to make thier visions.
That one Magneto scene owned so much.
The one he pinned to the fridge? I think it was the pure savagry of the attack that causes me to remember it so well. He slams both claws home with great force, then poses for a dramtic heavy breathing scene.
It was damn cool.
I loved the entire movie.
Must get DVD as soon as I can.

And I was all like 'Oh yeah?' and Sakkra was all like:
I loved the part in the Alkali Lake facility where Magneto pulled out all the soldiers' grenade pins. Comedy gold!
The whole row of Waistzlings found that hilarious. We were about the only ones in the theatre who did, though.

Comrade Snoota thought about the meaning of life:
A human bad-guy made up for the movie.
He was also in the X-men cartoon show(not the new version), but in it he is thin
THe biggest complaint I have heard is nightcrawler. Many people don't like his looks. Personally I think they did a near perfect job of getting it right. *shrugs*
Rouge was indeed a bit of a disapointment. I was expecting her to pull something at the end. But she seemed to really take back stage to the rest of the team. Even Iceman and Pyro had more prominent roles.
As to why Rogue lacks her strength/invulnerability in the movies...in the books she gets them permanently after virtually draining Ms. Marvel(Carol Danvers) of all her life force. Before she didn't have them. In the movies, it would be logical to assume this is pre-Ms. Marvel leeching. I don't know, I think it adds a bit of character to her, but I miss her comic book persona myself. She desperately needs a touch of Kloie-esque southern accent in the movies.

Close, what more than likely happened is that Bobby created a lair of ice on his lips, and the second time, it just melted away before they were done. I think I remember something like this happening before in some comic or something.
What irks me is the way that Jean turns into Pheonix. I can understand why they did it, it would probably take another movie and more money than they can spend to put together the whole Pheonix storyline, and I can deal with that, but it would have been cool to see it.
I have a question though... Jason Stryker shows up, the name and powers seem familiar, but who was he? Proteous?
Possibly boby was drained a bit for the short peck of a kiss, but not enouph to notice it past standard boy kissing girl bit, then with the longer protracted kiss he started sghowing the popped veins look
So we can hope.
When Wolverine jumps from the second floor and completely obliterates the commandos And when the adamantium chick grows claws and there comes a closeup on Wolverine's face, and he just says,"Holy shit..." And was I the only one who found it funny that they were wearing jungle camo while inside the house?
