The Master Of Magnetism":The Official Magneto/Erik Lehnsherr Thread'

[GNR]

http://pics-11.hi5.com/userpics/711/656/65657711.img.jpg

To join on the bandwagon of recent "official" character threads,and because there was not one thread on all 9 pages dedicated to The Master of Magnetism,this thread has been created to discuss all things Magneto related in X3.

I dont know whats more sad. The fact that there already is a thread on this, or that you're the one who created it. :(

[GNR]

No JP,this one's simply for Mags alone.He certainly deserves his own,cmon!And yes I did make that one sometime ago.

[JP]

I dont see how taking Xaviers name out of the thread changes anything.

[GNR]

It makes the focus of the thread on Magneto alone JP.You remember the Beast and Mystique thread?Well now there's a Mystique for her character alone,just for her.That's what taking the name out does.

[gap5ewl]

i have something to discuss in this thread. how i nthe hell do you spell the guys name??? I stick with eric lehnsherr. the name in the profile thing in x2 was eric lensherr and then in the credits at the end its spelled eric lehnsherr. comics are erik lehnsherr and sometimes erik lensherr. why cant they make their mind up!

[JP]

It still makes no sense. The thread was for all discussion on Xavier and Magneto.. having a thread that is on Magneto alone doesn't change anything.. It's still a duplicate thread.

[Neto Magnus]

cuz this thread is ALL Magneto!

and damn you GNR I was just about to start a thread on him. Me and my slow ass doody dial-up!

[chamber-music]

Magneto is Awesome but I think his going to die in X3. They can't put him in prison again unless Xavier does his ultimate X men thing and wipes magneto's memory to make him belive his an average joe. That could be cool. Either that or he turns into a good guy his done it a bunch of times in the comics, clones not withstanding.

[JP]

Okay, so I guess it's okay to disregard the Jean Grey/Phoeinix thread and start a new thread called 'Famke/Jean Grey' ... cuz there is a big difference.

I think this occured before X1.

[Crimson Warrior]

Lol^

[Mister Sinister]

Magneto's probably my favourite X-Men character. Just the idea of this guy able to control any kind of metal is unbelievable.

[GNR]

Hahaha,that pic is jokes.

[X-Maniac]

I have previously argued that it might be good to keep Magneto alive in X3 so there is continuity between X3 and the Magneto spin-off (which is bound to feature McKellen in some form, even just as a voiceover).

However, I think it could also be good if he died in X3, then Moira MacTaggert could clone him from the tissue and we'd get a younger version.... (I've borrowed elements of this from the comic storyline in which he was reverted to infancy by a mutant he created, raised and genetically modified by Moira, then brought back to a younger adulthood by Shi'ar agent Erik the Red)

Without being cruel, McKellen does look very haggard in some of the shots (the prison scenes especially). Surely he can afford surgery to remove those massive eyebags!

And the hair needs something done to it. Magneto's comicbook hair is white and wavy... McKellen's is grey and the wrong sort of wavy. It needs to be more like the comicbook version, or cropped into a sharper crewcut style that helps McKellen look younger and more dynamic.

Hope all that didn't sound mean.. Magneto is actually my favourite character and the movie version has been excellent. For the 'comicbook costume lovers', he's had the most accurate costume of them all... and his power displays have been impressive and very well done (except the raising of the cop cars in X1, which was done too casually and made them look obviously yanked in the air by a crane... it needed the 'humming' magnetic-pulse sound that is usually put over his power displays, and to be done more slowly and deliberately).

[GNR]

He would look so badass if Ian grew his hair a bit longer.

[Neto Magnus]

It be nice if Magneto is dying in the spinoff and then founds out he has kids and so on. Told in flashback I guess.

In X3, I think the best thing would be for Xavier to mind-wipe him of something.

[GNR]

ahhh....who can forget X-Men issue 25.I could see that happening Neto.

[Neto Magnus]

Yeah I liked your line of thinking.

Not kissing your ass or anything but you made some valid points about appearances and effects of the character as well as the neccessary condensing/altering of comic stories to fit the movies.

[X-Maniac]

No probs, Will. I was trying to logically see what might happen to Magneto, and to take into account the fact that McKellen may not (want to) return for another X-movie. Cloning a younger version would solve that, it would bring in the younger version that appeared in the comics, and Moira could use her assistant Jamie (the super-cloning Multiple Man) to discover the cloning techniques needed....

I personally think I should be Lehnsherr because that is german for: "liege" which has quite some symbolic character ;)

PS: It should be pronounced: lens hair (with a longer e in lens/ dont know how to write that)

[X-Maniac]

Yes, it should be Lehnsherr. This is German for a medieval/feudal lord, a liege...

In the comics, it turned out to be a name he used but not his real name. It would make sense that he took a name that meant 'lord' as it would be seem unlikely that the German name Lehnsherr would be the real name of a man born to Polish gipsy/Jew parents.

[GNR]

Hey guys,let's bump this beautiful thread which I created and get the positivity going again!

Now,there have been rumours of this scene which crew members are calling "hell".This scene has potential to be Magneto's defining moment in any of the movies.Hopefully they have enough time to make the effects top notch and putt it off."Pushing" the Golden Gate bridge into the Alcatraz is utter madness and I can't wait for it to appear on screen.

Also,assuming Sentinels are in it,Magneto has to take on the Sentinels in this movie.I just want to see him man handle them effortlessly with a grin on his face.

A scary resemblence I came upon.Now despite the fact that no human alive looks anything like a Jim Lee drawing,McKellen was born to play Magneto.

[BigMac]

I completely agree, on both points.

[JP]

Ian was definately born to play Mags. I can't see anyone else.

[Downhere]

That Magneto cover is one of my all time faves. It just show's how awesomely powerful he is.

[Downhere]

him and stewert have really good chemistry.

I totally agree...especially the end of X-Men with them playing Chess....that scene is one of my favorite out of any film!

[BigMac]

They both were born for the role. I have been calling for Stewart to play Prof X since the early 90s.

Whoa, interesting spin on that. ;) Hehe.

Wow, I just went down memory lane. My friends and I were sitting in the back of my Dad's van. We were driving to Chicago for the day, and we talked about the cast for an X-men movie. Keep in mind this was 1991. Let me see if I remember them. Keep in mind I was 8 years old, so my taste wasn't there.

Prof X- Stewart
Wolverine- Stallone
Colossus- Dolf Lundgren

There were a lot more, but my mind has gone blank.

Prof X - Stewart
Magneto - Richard Gere
Jean Grey - Julia Roberts
Wolverine - Mel Gibson

well not exactly........the other gaurds got beat up too and they seemed nice

they were beat up by cyclops then killed by magneto.........poor gaurds :(

X3 is dedicated to all those who fell at the hands of the Master of Magnetism.

Head of prison:m`am your husband died yesterday.
wife of gaurd:what? *starts crying* ....b....ut..........how?
Head of prison:well heres the thing............

He was found with a fork embedded in his spine.

[xwolverine2]

He was found with a fork embedded in his spine.
.......right before being beat the crap out of by some superhero by the alias cyclops.

[BigMac]

So he had a fork in his spine and a hole in his head. Did he at least get a good look at Deathstryke before he went?

[xwolverine2]

Lol...... we should make a thread about this. it would be funny

NO, DON'T MAKE A NEW THREAD! You have your whole life a head of you.

LOL......i would better than another "i want juggernaut not thread"

Actually, I think it would be great to do little stories about the people who are effected by the X-men/Brotherhood. Kinda like the internet show called "Troops;" which is based on the Storm Troopers in Star Wars.

I can see the story about the guy who had a bullet touching his head (stopped by Magneto). He was never the same after his crapped himself in front of his partner.

Don't tell that to a guy we used to have on the imdb messageboard. He claims that Stewert was the worst casting in the X movies. He said it was typecasting and stupid. Can you believe that? He said he's posted on here, so I don't know if any of you have dealt with him.

Wolverine- Stallone
Colossus- Dolf Lundgren

No offense, but I'm so glad those ones didn't turn out. Dolph would be better for Omega Red. But Stallone, no way.

I like the fact Mags looked haggered he was in prison after all. I don't think ian mackellen should have plastic surgery I mean that can be fixed by prostetics and make up. Surgey is a little drastic and he could end up more messed up than he looked before like Mickey Rooke.

[GNR]

Thank you for getting back on topic Chamber.

Who said 'just for movie'? It would make him look better generally!

Removal of eyebags is a common procedure, especially for those who want to look younger! No one is forcing him, it was just that he looked so ancient in X2 !!!

It looks Magneto will fly:eek: :up: This is what special effects advisor Chris Palmer had to say!

From Chicago Tribune:
Published February 5, 2006
Q. What was notable about, say, "X-Men"?

A. X-Men had more rigging--flying and suspending people--than anything I've ever worked on. In one scene, Ian McKellen flies across his hideout. The underwriters were concerned. He was 100 feet off the ground.

The underwriters generally have an absolute stunt exclusion on the main actors. But we're often able to work with underwriters to lift the exclusion.

You'll hear an actor say, "I did all of my own stunts." Generally, that's not true. Jackie Chan does all his own stunts. Pierce Brosnan as James Bond did a lot of his stunts. But there are risks that insurance carriers won't allow the actors to take without precautions.

If the actor can't perform because of death or disability, cast insurance pays for delays and sometimes abandonment. That's a huge potential loss because daily production costs can run $150,000 to $500,000.Source: http://www.chicagotribune.com/business/chi-0602050186feb05,1,6298025.story?coll=chi-business-hed

Cool news Retro, thanks

[Retroman]

^^^Don't mention it.

I can't wait to see the flying in this film (Angel, Storm, Phoenix, Magneto - wow). Apparently the best riggers in the biz worked on it, including folks from Superman Returns.

[jusblaze21]

It would be nice to see a battle in the sky, with all the flyers in this film.

[JustABill]

Hmm. I think there's actually going to be too much flying in the movie. Has it ever actually been confirmed that we will see Phoenix fly?

[TheWeatherMan]

Hmm. I think there's actually going to be too much flying in the movie. Has it ever actually be confirmed that will see Phoenix fly?

Not to my knowledge... the writers would not respond to that specific question at thexverse.com. However, I am guessing that she will fly.

[Retroman]

Question is why would Ian need to be 100 feet off the ground?

[Svenhorn83]

Which mutant will fly in X3?

Angel
Storm
Magneto
Dark Phoenix
and perhaps Sunfire (if he is in :confused:)

I hope we get a battle in the air

[BBraddockLover]

isnt it gonna be kinda weird that no one could fly before but now we have at least 4 people flying

i mean why couldnt storm fly in the first one at ellis island, she says "it doesnt work that way" but now it does?

jean makes a little more sense. her powers were blocked so much that she didnt have the power to fly, but now with them gone she can

[Electrix]

Hmm. I think there's actually going to be too much flying in the movie. Has it ever actually been confirmed that we will see Phoenix fly?

Storm flew somewhat in X1. So did Magneto, and he also did in X2.

[PWN3R]

Yeah, no one talks about that, BUT she did fly for like a second in X1.

lol

[Specter313]

Question is why would Ian need to be 100 feet off the ground?

Surveying all his followers? Command respect? Just plain showing off.

[X-Maniac]

i mean why couldnt storm fly in the first one at ellis island, she says "it doesnt work that way" but now it does?

The real explanation: They didn't have the budget, and the movie kept everything 'grounded' (literally on the ground!)

The movieworld explanation: She's been practising her control in the Danger Room? Everyone was evolved by Magneto's machine? Kinberg or Penn said Storm had 'evolved'... i don't know how literally to take this...! Perhaps her ccomment in X1 meant she couldn't control it like that if she flew someone else on winds - it must be more difficult than flying herself where she has more precise control of the air around her than trying to control it around Wolverine from a distance.

[bosef982]

Guys, don't get too excited.

I think we're seeing a lot of "Hovering" not so much "flying"

Probably taking precaution in case Jean snaps out of it or maybe they're doing it to look cool.

Good question! It depends when Xavier is eliminated, and maybe they are aware that there are many mutants with psychic powers.

Prolly to look cool. :up:

[pdrumans]

In the screen cap from the new trailer where it shows jeans legs and Prof X is in the wheel chair, well Magneto is in the back ground in the kitchen. He is on the floor leaning against the kitchen cabinets. This looks to be the scene where previously we saw Magneto screaming. I think his helmet would not be enough against Jean if she really pushed it.

[Nibune]

Good catch man, just noticed that

I still dont get how Magneto convienently shows up with the X-men to Jean's house

[X-Maniac]

Good catch man, just noticed that

Maybe you're not supposed to 'get it' yet. After all, we've only seen four minutes of material so far, in both trailers. Don't expect to be able to piece together the entire movie from that.

[pdrumans]

The Prof is wearing the same suit in the scene where they are outside walking with Mags in Jeans neighbothood as he is in the scene where Jean is lifting him out of the chair. I would take a guess that this is within the first half of the movie. After Jean has run away, They go to her neighborhood chasing after her. Mags has learned of Jeans existance (more powerful than you) and he went to talk with her as well to bring her to the brotherhood side. When the Prof and Mags go inside the house they find Jean changing into her new clothes (the scene lifting the Prof shows her unitard and shirt) and in a bad mood. She fights with them and Storm then fights with the brotherhood outside the house. Somehow Jean goes with Mags and perhaps the scene with the empty wheel chair and Storm/Wolv is after this (perhaps Jean killed the Prof at that point). Just a theory based on what I have scene so far. Maybe wrong.

[Pickle-El]

Really looking forward to another go-round with Magneto...hopefully they don't hold back on his powers. Seems like FOX spent a pretty coin on that Bridge sequence, hope it it's a holy **** moment.

[LMason]

In the trailer where he is against the kitchen cabinets screaming, I am convinced that he is screaming "CHAAAAAAAARLES" - watch it in super, slow-mo. :-)

[Backdrifter]

The Prof is wearing the same suit in the scene where they are outside walking with Mags in Jeans neighbothood as he is in the scene where Jean is lifting him out of the chair. I would take a guess that this is within the first half of the movie. After Jean has run away, They go to her neighborhood chasing after her. Mags has learned of Jeans existance (more powerful than you) and he went to talk with her as well to bring her to the brotherhood side. When the Prof and Mags go inside the house they find Jean changing into her new clothes (the scene lifting the Prof shows her unitard and shirt) and in a bad mood. She fights with them and Storm then fights with the brotherhood outside the house. Somehow Jean goes with Mags and perhaps the scene with the empty wheel chair and Storm/Wolv is after this (perhaps Jean killed the Prof at that point). Just a theory based on what I have scene so far. Maybe wrong.
That is what i have concluded from the trailer aswell.

[Sketchee]

In the screen cap from the new trailer where it shows jeans legs and Prof X is in the wheel chair, well Magneto is in the back ground in the kitchen. He is on the floor leaning against the kitchen cabinets. This looks to be the scene where previously we saw Magneto screaming. I think his helmet would not be enough against Jean if she really pushed it. Jean is telekinetic unlike Prof X, she could just rip the helmet off first if she really wanted to.
There are a lot of telepaths that could be around, so if he has this kind of technology I can't imagine that he would ditch it. If he's not wearing it where would he keep it.

[Halcohol]

She could also just break him like a twig but, hey, that's the easy way out, right?

[LEX]

Prolly to look cool. :up:
Yep. :p Magneto looks so much cooler w/ helmet than w/o. Good question, though.

[WorthyStevens]

Not if he dropped a bridge on her first. :p

[Electrix]

:eek: Good eyes Retro!

[micky-fox]

Tell me about it. I just watched the trailer again, and he is so right about it. Magneto is on the floor in the kitchen (Phoenix obviously smashed him beforehand or is holding him there while she finishes her buisness) and he is screaming, because Xavier is about to be killed right before his eyes. That's actually really sad. :(

[Iceman/Psylocke]

From what we've seen so far, it look's like Magneto will be using his powers very aggressively in X3.

Exactly.

If that's a strong enough way to put it. From what I seen in the trailer, it looks like he's gonna go all out this time. The whole Golden Gate Bridge crisis still in mind, he seems mightily pissed off and really determined to vanquish the humans once and for all. I like that. ;)

As he said himself "Fury that this world has never witnessed!".

It actually kinda makes me sad thinking about him not being able to help the Prof.

A fave line of his that I really like is how he says "Who will you stand with?" with that slight smirk in his voice. Just so awesome.

I love that too. Ians voice is perfect for Magneto. Strong, persuasive and powerful.

"Make no mistake, my brothers... the humans will draw first blood. When the air is still and the night has fallen, there is only one question you must answer... Who will you stand with?"

I just love it! :)

Also another of my favourite lines from the trailer is this one...

"They wish to 'cure' us... and I say we are the cure!"

I know. This scene is going to be awesome. I think Magneto would have been cautious the whole time Xavier was talking with Phoenix. I think Magneto has a fairly good idea of just how powerful Jean is now. He would have been alert the whole time, but he can't stand in her way. Hence, here we see him immobilized from moving up against the kitchen drawers. :(

[FieryBalrog]

"They wish to 'cure' us... and I say we are the cure!"

That line, with the successive sequences of Pyro flaming up the building, Storm raising the tidal wave, and Jean confronting the Professor, is probably my favorite part of the trailer now.

[shaggyhess]

It was definatly a goose-bumb kind of trailer.

[LEX]

Paul Bettany creeps me out in the trailer. Ian looks great as always. :up:

[The Original Bamfer]

Hmmm... I think I've realized something interesting about Magneto. When he is in the woods, talking to the mass of muties, its obvious he doesn't have his helmet. Which leads me to believe this happens after -this is my point- Xavier dies. He's only ever used it to stay away from Charles, at least in the Movie Verse... and he doesn't have to worry about Jean as she's aiding him.

[X-Maniac]

Not sure about that. He never wore his helmet on his island lair in X1. He treats it like a 'battle helmet' and wears it mainly for action scenes and when he is trying to avoid telepathic attack.

[The Original Bamfer]

I'm also assuming he'd wear it so Xavier couldn't track him down with Cerebro. The Lair could ahve easily been covered with it...

[PWN3R]

Yeah but have they repaired Cerebro from X2??

I think he simply just isn't wearing it...:p

[Halcohol]

They said we won't see Cerebro in X2, so I bet there won't even be a mention of it. Everything the X-Men need to know will come to them through the news or Beast...

I think Mags isn't wearing the helmet as a show of trust to the Phoenix... what kind of leader would he be if he looked like he was afraid of one of his 'followers'?

[bosef982]

You guys are being too complex. Magneto's not wearing the helment for one simple reason:

He knows Phoenix can do whatever she likes to him, helmet or not. SHe attacks him in her home, and I'm willing to bet it's regardless of the helmet. So, why bother?

[Joker]

It'll be interesting to see Magneto being over powered by another mutant.In the previous movies he's been damn near untouchable.

Ian McKellen interview in the next edition of Empire!...

http://www.empireonline.com/magazine/

Lunch With Gandalf
But for an ill-timed snow flurry, Ian McKellen's first film would have been The Bells Of Hell Go Ting-A-Ling-A-Ling. If he hadn't been in a tiny BBC adaptation, Bryan Singer wouldn't have cast him in Apt Pupil and then as Magneto. McKellen's intimidating CV has had a lot to do with chance, and in a frank, witty and surprising interview, we find out about LOTR, Oscar and why Professor X and Magneto are destined to end up in bed together.

Killing off Magneto would not be cool :down

[TNC9852002]

Killing off Magneto would be a great end to his emotional arc, IMO...

[Storm22]

I agree! I think Xavier and Magneto are both gonna die.

[Kira]

Honest opinion: Don't want either one to die, but most likely it will happen. Either Magneto or Xavier... Or both. Just wish they will have a good death. Xavier in a battle with Jean and Magneto getting his ass kicked in the final battle by X-Men. (or like some hope: Sentinels will kill him)

[Storm22]

I'm hoping Sentinels will kill Magneto, he'll die at the hands of human weaponry - it'd be a powerful and effective end to his disdain for humans arc!

[Maze]

Killing off Magneto would be a great end to his emotional arc, IMO...

-TNC
I agree.

[Paste Pot Pete]

Magneto would be one of the only deaths I could accept. Not that I don't love the character, but it's an appropriate end for his part in the trilogy, much more so than any other character.

He went to prison at the end of X1, lived to fight another day in X2; if this really is the end of a "trilogy" he won't just run off again. His thread needs to be tied up, and unless he flees to a far off land to rule his own people, the only other option is to die in the war he's been anticipating since day one. Trying to annhilate the human race in X2 was his point of no return.

[TNC9852002]

I'm hoping Sentinels will kill Magneto, he'll die at the hands of human weaponry - it'd be a powerful and effective end to his disdain for humans arc!
Maybe it'd be even more powerful for him to die at the hands of another mutant.

[MoreCowbell]

Killing Magneto isn't that good of an idea, IMO. If it happens that way, I'll be OK with it as long as he goes out using his raging powers...

But he is the X-men's greatest friend and foe. He is as important as any X-man, IMO. There's always a role for him. As an X-man, or as a Villian.

[WorthyStevens]

[migs]

if whatever is sticking out of him gives him the cure, I'd be alright with that. Having him be cured and then bringing in some sentinels would be a smart move on the army's part, considering he could own all of the sentinels like nothing.

If it's the quills taking him out, meh. That'd be real weak

[Kira]

Sigh... The whole world is against me. :D

There are bunch of other mutants who could kill Magneto. And yes, there are Sentinels too. Either way. :)

No, Quills cannot kill Magneto. The most powerful mutant of all. It's a disgrace! :eek::o
