The Lower Level of the X-Mansion Explained...

[Neto Magnus]

One of the most interesting and long running conversations about the X-Men movies I’ve had over the years, were about what was behind all those doors in the lower level corridor. Most people, including myself, are getting confused as to which room is where. I have made a blueprint of the top secret basement so that we can be clear. I have included some pics of the rooms and also added screencaps from X3. It’s seems now after further viewing of the teaser, that the rooms may have changed. The information on the blueprint was based on what we’ve seen so far in both films, concept art and behind the scenes footage. It’s obviously not to scale so bear that in mind...

[Neto Magnus]

Each of the rooms is numbered from 1-9.

R1: ELEVATOR
http://img45.imageshack.us/img45/5440/r1elevator5np.jpg

R2: UNKOWN
http://img68.imageshack.us/img68/2770/r2unknown6ws.jpg
It has never been revealed yet as to what is in this room. It could be anything from a flight simulator, a gymnasium, an indoor pool or Xavier’s secret spanking room.

R3: CEREBRO
http://img68.imageshack.us/img68/2690/r3cerebro5fy.jpg
A machine that helps amplify Xavier’s powers to locate mutants all over the world. Unlike in the comics, Cerebro is not a computer that automatically detects mutant activity.
In X3: It has been said that Cerebro will not be in the film. Largely due to the fact that Stryker jacked it in X2 and possibly because Xavier is afraid to go anywhere near it. What do you suppose they will use it for?

R4: CONTROL ROOM
http://img74.imageshack.us/img74/627/r4controlroom1xp.jpg
It is the room that controls and monitors the Danger Room. The location has not been confirmed but it would seem logical for it to be adjacent to the Danger Room...

[Neto Magnus]

R5: DANGER ROOM
http://img74.imageshack.us/img74/7272/r5dangerroom7iz.jpg
http://img74.imageshack.us/img74/3572/r5dangerroom023cv.jpg
The Danger Room has never been shown on film. According to the picture above, the room is located parallel to the elevator and the words ‘DANGER’ appear on the door.
In X3: The Danger Room will finally make it’s debut. However, the location of the room might have changed....
http://img49.imageshack.us/img49/9295/035nl.jpg
Some have speculated that the door opening up is in fact the Danger Room because The X-Men are shown walking down the corridor immediately after...
http://img231.imageshack.us/img231/4299/047gv.jpg
^Now, trailers are always edited out of order so it doesn’t necessarily mean that that is in fact the Danger Room. We’ll come back to that pic later on.

R6: WAR ROOM
http://img69.imageshack.us/img69/5663/r6warroom2lh.jpg
The location of this room is still unclear but it makes sense for it to be right across from the Ready Room and the Hanger. By the way, does anyone know what that table is called?

[Neto Magnus]

R7: INFIRMARY & LAB
http://img69.imageshack.us/img69/7526/r7infirmary1cm.jpg
This is probably, the most important room in the mansion.
In X3: It appears that this room has been moved. Hopefully, it is not a continuity error on the filmmaker’s part.
http://img49.imageshack.us/img49/3408/026cc.jpg
http://img225.imageshack.us/img225/7285/018jo.jpg
^It’s obvious now that the infirmary is located on the side. My theory is that the X-Men moved the infirmary to R8/R9 and moved(or built a new) Danger Room in R7. It would explain where they are headed in this pic...
http://img231.imageshack.us/img231/4299/047gv.jpg
^and notice that Logan is pointing to R8/R9. It’s possible that Storm is explaining to him about the move.

R8: READY ROOM
http://img73.imageshack.us/img73/3007/r8readyroom1fc.jpg
Who could forget that memorable image of Wolverine stumbling upon the X-uniforms?
Unfortunately, it appears that the X2 production designer, Guy Dyas changed the layout of X1’s John Myhre’s original design and omitted the Ready Room from X2, which pretty much means that it will not be in X3.


R9: JET HANGER
http://img203.imageshack.us/img203/4331/r9hanger3kl.jpg
In X3: It’s clear now that the Infirmary is now where the Hanger used to be. It’s possible that they moved the Hanger to R5. But does that mean they moved the basketball court too?

Obviously, the X3 teaser has really confused us. We’ll just have to wait until the next trailer or better yet the film. But I hope all this at least clears somes things up.

[Retroman]

Wow. Great work Neto.:up: I think each production designer has slightly alterd the lower levels. It's not something you'd notice immediatly though.

I'll post some more shots of the lower levels.

[Aiden]

That's better than the one I seen, Good stuff Neto :up:

[Neto Magnus]

Wow. Great work Neto.:up: I think each production designer has slightly alterd the lower levels. It's not something you'd notice immediatly though.

I understand that a PD is going to make some changes but it doesn't flow continuity wise.

and thanks, I apprieciate that.

[JustABill]

I think for the most part, casual viewers are not gonna care about something like this being changed. :o

Nowwwww, if suddenly Storm was white, Jean was asian, and Jubilee was the leader of the X-Men, yeah. :o

[Electrix]

:up:

I dont care whats behind what door, apart from Cerebro. Aslong as we get to see all of whats downstairs!

[Retroman]

I understand that a PD is going to make some changes but it doesn't flow continuity wise.
If audience don't notice it. They will always make slight changes. It's not right but's okay.

and thanks, I apprieciate that.
No problem.

[Retroman]

:up:

I think we'll get lots of that for sure.

INTERESTING X-TRIVIA (I just found this out recently on the site of Spider-Man concept artist Warren Manser) - X3 Production Designer Ed Verreaux actually was given one of his first major jobs on X-Men by Bryan Singer. He was only on board for a couple months though.
Singer had to let him go cause the project had stalled. John Myhre then took Verreaux's place when it started back.

Wowo Neto! I'm impressed! Good job! :)

[Iceman]

Wow - I love this thread

Good analysis guys - esp Neto

[lordofthenerds]

Great thread idea Neto. People were starting to get confused about the lower levels in the photo album thread.:up:

[Neto Magnus]

thanks guys, this thread was needed.

btw, I was watching X-Men again and I noticed that Xavier says to Logan, "The lower levels however, are an entirely different matter". He said "levels" as in plural. Is it possible that there are more sub-levels?

[sebaa]

woww cool!!

Neto, if you look in the 'Art of X2' you'll see some concept art of the Helicopter pad that's located behind the Mansion. It looks like a secret underground path leads to it.

Xavier could also be reffering to the underground excape routes.

Also - The new jet is about 3 times the size of the last one. Surely it must take off at another secret level?

lol, you have that book too?

I think you're right, I forgot about the secret tunnels.

Stryker did say it came up the bball court and I don't think there was supposed to be a different jet in the movieverse. Just a bigger budget.

[Retroman]

Yup i sure do.
I don't think they filmed a scene where we see the heli pad.

Forgot about the satellite photo.Thanks for refreshing my memory.:)

[gap5ewl]

great job neto! concerning the unknown room, if you guys remember in x-men legends there was a room next to cerebro the was used to hold people (ex. toad). It was complete with a cell, computer, ect. So maybe its possible the room is a holding room?

[Chillin92]

Correct me if im wrong but the only door in the sub basement that is silver is cebrebro right, all the others are blue.So in the trailer the first shot of the x-men walking down they are across from it.So according to Neto's blueprints they should be headed to the infirmary.
P.S really great job Neto

[xwolverine2]

nice neto!!

[lordofthenerds]

It looks like the door that is opening in the trailer according to those blueprints, is the door of R4 the Control Room. Maybe Professer X going in or out of it.

[Neto Magnus]

I never played the X-Men legends 1 so could you find a screencap of it? Maybe it is included in the 15 pages of IGN images. http://media.xbox.ign.com/media/499/499594/imgs_1.html

No it isnt in there. I just looked at it again though on x-men legends and its near the infarmary and the elevator that goes up to the first floor of the x-mansion. Does anyone have screencaps for it?

[Neto Magnus]

ok, I found this somewhere. I think the game version is alot different than the movie onve.

[N_z0]

Oh god that set is ugly. It looks like a pinball machine.

Anyways, good job on the thread neto. When you hinted before that you were gonna do a blueprint for the movie set, i thought it was another parody. :p

hey, I can be serious too. :D

[Super Flight]

Looks Great good work !

[Star]

hmm, good work neto.


but you know how you said that 'wolverine is pointing, maybe they'll explain it'

i doubt that... becuase honestly, if i hadnt seen this thread POINTING out the 'danger' on the door (which i still find hard to see) i wouldnt have noticed it, so i doubt they'll provide any explanation for that since it would probably just confuse people.

[Super Flight]

ummm....where the bathroom? dont tell me you have to go upstairs everytime, lol

[N_z0]

I could actually see them saying that Stryker and his team did more damage to the mansion (mostly the lower levels) than what was previously known by the audience. I'm not sure that would necessarily require moving rooms around.

ummm....where the bathroom? dont tell me you have to go upstairs everytime, lol

That's what Kitty is for. :D

It is, but there are some rooms in there that might possibly be the one in the movie subasement. There is the holding room and also the lab and infirmary are seperated, like the lab is more like beasts office and stuff in the game. So maybe the unknown room is the lab? also maybe the room we see in the trailer that jean is in, maybe its the labrartory and not the infirmary, maybe they put her in there to do tests on her and stuff.

[Super Flight]

the unkown room is prolly the bathroom. One giant Bathroom! do you think they made beast a bathroom just for himself, i mean i know no one would want to use it after hes done with it..... I wonder how the thing gets around prolly has to use a trash can, same with the hulk :thing: :hulk:

[Neto Magnus]

well, they have to kinda explain why the infirmary is in a different place. I'm sure everyone remembers Wolverine running out of there like that and people will get confuse when they see X3.

hey that is the best explaination I've heard yet.:up:

[Super Flight]

add a bathroom

[N_z0]

hey that is the best explaination I've heard yet.:up:

About the lack of bathroom? :D

[Neto Magnus]

yeah, I forgot all about the bathrooms. Maybe that unknown room is going to be a full locker room, complete with co-ed showers.:up:

[Super Flight]

yea the down stairs secret bathroom, hehe

[gap5ewl]

http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c22/elwoodc/xmslowerlevelplueprint4vi.jpg

possibly something like this? a seperate lab and infirmary

[Super Flight]

What room has the sand table that was shown in x1?

[Super Flight]

No More Labortorys! I say Lavitorys! :mad:

[N_z0]

What room has the sand table that was shown in x1?

War Room. Neto mentioned it in his posts.

Now where to put that bathroom...or atleast...where to put Kitty...

[Super Flight]

But i thought the war room had a window looking into the danger room, or is that the control room?

[gap5ewl]

control room.

http://www.lonslair.com/basement.gif

Now where do these fall in to place, would these go above the lowest basment of cerebro and danger room?

[lordofthenerds]

Our speculation list for the unkown room:
1. Labortory
2. Prison/Cell
3. Flight Stimulator
4. Bathroom
5. Xavier's Secret Spanking Room

[Super Flight]

somone should just make the WHOLE house haha, I vote for NETO!!! So start with the blueprints, then woden/plastic model, then work on a 3d model....;)

[N_z0]

Neto wins the voting by one.

GET TO WORK! :D

[Super Flight]

bluprints i want by march, wodenplastic moden i want by april, and 3d model i expect down no later then june!! give ya 50cents now and 50cent when your down :p

[gap5ewl]

the house might be hard though... hell maybe ill try it out lol.

[Super Flight]

wouldnt there be a book of x-men that shows you the inside of everyting,houses cars and charactors, i know they did that with star wars, they should do it for x-men,

[gap5ewl]

they did but its for the comic book house not the movie verse house.

[lordofthenerds]

Here are a couple more blueprints of the house:
http://www.lonslair.com/first.gif
http://www.lonslair.com/second.gif

[Super Flight]

look how big xaviers room is, we have yet to see it in the movies.

[YAVANNA]

i am all for a complete maping of the mansion, i keep getting lost everytime i wacht!! danger room must have been a nightmare to place in x3

i am a star wars fan for long and now and i really apreciate that the people in charge makes all the possible explanations to locations and set, that's one of the things i like the most, it makes it real:up:

So, JanG are you Jango, Jacen...?

[-Æ-]

Wow, this thread will definetly come in handy when I plan to raid the X-Mansion....oh someone already did that? Oh, well well fine than, ill go break into Spiderman's Auntie house on a glider. Someone already did that too...what the hell you have to tell me these things!

[Neto Magnus]

wouldnt there be a book of x-men that shows you the inside of everyting,houses cars and charactors, i know they did that with star wars, they should do it for x-men,

yea theres a book called "Art of X2" and it comes with the script and everything. There's a blueprint of the mansion in there but my scanner's messed up.

can someone post that?

[Super Flight]

o really? thanks for the info, i might have to pick up a copy

JanGo..what do you think... as retarded as I was to follow the prequel trilogy, i'm not retarded enough to care about schematics and crappy expanded universe books. as an intended filmmaker I understand what things in the movies have a point, and those things clearly don't....

I hope you realize those people on that site I posted concluded that the scale of the Death Star is like 10 different sizes depending on the shots. Why, because the cinematographers didn't give a rats ass how big the thing was, they just wanted it "took look this big in this shot, to look this big in that shot". You'd have to be a retard to act like this s*** is real. GET A LIFE.

Even after their own findings concluded that the filmmakers never intended on proportional continuity, they WENT ON with the discussion. These guys are so clueless as to what matters in life it's scary. :(

Good job Neto, we should print it out and bring it along when we watch X3, see if it all fits :p

LOL...I'm a Star Wars fan too, and even with the tons of SW books I've collected over the years, I could never get into those technical books that have all the spaceship schematics.

As much as I'd love to have my own X-wing fighter, I just keep thinking "It's NOT REAL, people!!"

From an artwork standpoint, they're cool to look at. I love the 'making of' books with the art from the sets. I can't imagine how much work went into creating all of these things. But in general, I'd much rather read the books about the characters, and new stories.

Which isn't to take away from the job Neto is doing here. This is a really cool thread. :up:

I like the lower level of the x-mansion... for some reason, I always thought it was in the upper level but underground seems more sense to have it on that level. Makes me wonder what kind of nights Jean spends down there... ;) then Cyclops joins her and they play "Dr" and "patient" ... okay. :p muahahaha

Cool thread & nice work! Would be fun to see it as a web site where you could click on rooms and have pics or videos that take place in the room pop up...Or take an interactive 3D tour! Well done, Neto! :D

[deemar325]

This is one of the coolest threads ever, good stuff Neto.

[gap5ewl]

Hey guys I decided to bump this thread because i updated neto's orginal blueprint of the lower levels. After watching all three movies extensively, Ive made a new plan of what the lower levels looks like. X3 changed some rooms around so I moved them around.
http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c22/elwoodc/Copyofxmslowerlevelplueprint4vi.jpg

So I moved the hangar next to cerebro, the infirmary next to the elevator (which seemed to have dissapeared when they were suiting up and logan was giving the speech in x3 lol) and that unknown room I made into the ready room (and moved it all the way at the end since since in x3, after the danger room simulation, thay all walk to that room)

oo btw what happened to the basketball court!?!??!!? it dissapreared noticably in x3..i guess they took it down and covered it with grass after stryker broke into the school so no one will get suspicious or no the location. safety first.

[gambitfire]

WOW,

Real awesome.

Good work Neto.

[PeRfEcT_StOrM]

i think the unknown is that room in X1 where they discussed Wolvie's skeleton.

oo btw what happened to the basketball court!?!??!!? it dissapreared noticably in x3..i guess they took it down and covered it with grass after stryker broke into the school so no one will get suspicious or no the location. safety first.
Hey thanks for trying gap. But TLS pretty much ****ed up the whole layout so I just gave up. It's like the filmmakers never even saw the first 2 films.

i think the unknown is that room in X1 where they discussed Wolvie's skeleton.
no that was the med lab. And your right neto idk what the hell ratner and the crew were thinking. They really screwed up the lower level and where the hell was the elevator!?!?!?

[gambitfire]

Well besides the fact that Ratner screwing up the lower levels is nitpick heaven. :p

Do you honestly Believe Ratner is the kind of director to pay that kind of attention to detail.

Ratner: Wow this place is shiny.
What? Floor plans?

Who cares it shiny now set up.

:D

Singer on the other hand is probably too anal about this. :o

:p

yeah it is nitpicking. I wasnt sayibg all that though. My only problem I had was the elevator dissapeared when they were suiting up.

This thread is darn cool :D:up:

I'm not sure if the X-Jet hanger and the ready room are in the right spot though (X3-wise), but they seemed to leave out X1/X2 continuity there, lol :p

[gap5ewl]

X3 wise, the x-jet is at the right place. It's on the right side of cerebro. I put the ready room there because after they finish the danger room training in x3, they walk to that room so i assume they're getting changed there.

the hangar is pretty darn huge.

OMG, I know. Moments before Jean destroyed the lab doors. Yet later on Wolverine and Beast are seen coming out of that same damn room. In that scene you can see the elevator across from that room but when Jean came out no elevator. I'll try to get screencaps later.

In the production diary you can see how bad a director Ratner really is. All he does throughout was say "It be cool if we did this" or "that would be cool to do it this way". He mentions that he wanted the infirmary to be exactly like the one from X1. Not only did it not look like the same room but it wasn't even in the right place.

lol I'm still shocked at the fact that FOX enlisted Ratner to do X3.

:(

so am I. Until may 26, I thought "hey, but he can't be that bad. He's got to be kinda good. I have faith him." I made the sacrilege of comparing him to Peter Jackson: "Peter also didn't have that many brilliant movies before LOTR, those movies brought him to stardom. Ratner has the good Red Dragon." God Am I ashamed of defending Ratner. After that day, AND after i saw that list of the powerhouses of Hollywood listing him as the biggest HACK of Hollywood, I consider him just a selfish, egocentric, dumb and playboy director-wannabe. He could be all of that, IF he was a good director. But he doesn't seem so. Bryan seems to be anal, perfectionist, introspective, boring, a pain in the ass too. But look at his movies, the quality of them. That's what I say, you can be as anal as you want, as long as you bring a good filmography. But not Ratner, he doesnt' have the right to be, because he's such a bad director.

Bravo Flavio!
