If i vote for any of them.... SCARLET WITCH... with the abilty to change your luck of what might happen? NO NO NO NO NO never in a movie ever. I would like to see Maverick, Nick Fury, Sabertooth back, maybe gambit.... maybe. Paige, husk, penace, and the whole story about the legacy virus as a battle rages. Maybe shadow king done in an ULTIMATE rewrite kinda style. More personified and less lizard. Oh... and the white queen herself of course!

I would have liked to have seen Magneto's family. Perhaps in the Magneto movie will get to see Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver.

I'd like to see Sinister, Gambit, White Queen and Deathstrike (I don't know, Sinister could make another clone of her). Somehow, they could combine the Mutant Massacre storyline with the Hellfire Club. And also, an army of Sentinels and Trask. I know they're not mutants, but whatever.

Oh, sorry, forget my last post. It's for X4. Anyway, yeah, Gambit should've been in this one in a decent-sized role. Nightcrawler-sized role.

Without doubt: Nightcrawler.

Three blue mutants. Sounds good. ;) Yeah, Nightcrawler is next to Gambit on my list. I really loved those "bamfs".

They leaved him out for external reasons, so he should have appeared again, like an already established character, so bad move in my opinion

Yeah, I know. I would've loved to see some more of his moves and more of him with Mystique.

Nightcrawler hands down. He was a proven success, his uniqueness didn't overlap with other mutants, and he had a bit of a storyline going that could have been explored further.

Instead of Arclight, they could've put in Avalanche.

LEX

I'd like to see them exploring Magneto's history in the future movies. That would mean adding Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver. I liked both of them from the X-Men: Evolution show.

They should've added Gambit instead of Quill, Avalanche instead of Arclight and Deathstrike instead of...erm...some Brotherhood member that will have a decent fighting time against Wolverine.

I would have liked to have seen Gambit and Emma Frost - just to see how each of them would affect the established character's relationships.

Gambit hitting on Rogue and Emma manipulating Cyke - all the while Bobby and Jean would be fuming!!

Interesting...

I don't know, he's probably captured or something.

04-14-2006, 09:33 AM
Out of those picks, I'd say definitely Emma.

I don't know how much of a role Arclight, Callisto, and Psylocke will play, or how they'll be portrayed, but the 'dark side' could use a more powerful, cerebral female. Then again, they did get Phoenix . . .

I want to see Havok. I think that it would have been a cool way to see Cyke get over his "loss" of Jean when he finds out his brother isn't dead. Giving him hope that Jean isn't dead either. Yes I am a little crazy.

I voted Quicksilver simply because I think it would've been cool to have him as part of the brotherhood from X1, but I don't think this movie needed any extra characters.

I think Quicksilver should of been in X3, mainly cause hes my favourite xmen villian, and hes totally badass and would of rocked so many people in the movie, and ofcourse, Gambit..just cause he owns. hands down!!!:up:

me too. that would of made a greater last stand and bigger battle effect. I see the trailer and i love how they are standing in a line but you get that missing feeling. I still have high hopes we get to see Gambit making a very small appearance. and i know people say he's not in it but until we see the final release of the movie then we know.

It was a shame that they spent so much time, money, and effort developing Nightcrawler into the highlight of the movie, only to have him dropped from X3... honestly I hope they come up with a really good reason why he's not in the movie

It's already been said that his absence won't be addressed in the film.

And if you're talking about the reasons why the filmmakers didn't keep him, it was because they couldn't find a role for him that justified the money on the actor, makeup, prosthetics, and special effects.

This is the worst reason they could say. didn't find a good role for him?? Come on! with the cure, Nightcrawler presence will be very important, he would have been interested in it, and would have interaction with Rogue, Storm, Xavier, Beast, Angel, please, this reason it's totally false.

I've already said it, it was for external reasons, one of them, I think is for having two more blue characters, other, the money (?) although now they had it :confused: , but anyway... I hope see him next time, really hope it.

Well not really... Take what we know of the story of X3 from all the info we've gotten... where would Nightcrawler play a significant role? What would his purpose in the movie be?

hmm whats arclights purpose in the movie :d or quills. they're just fighting because they believe in magneto. it seems like NC and storm built up a friendship where storm convinced him that the xmen are good. i cant comprehend why he would leave...ill wait till after ive played the X3 game

She'd be fearsome.

In evolution, the only people who have been able to stop Wanda are those with mind powers. Mastermind and Xavier were the only two able to calm her, Mastermind completely rewriting her memories if I remember.

Everyone else she has went up against has come off worse. She's took on the X-Men. The Brotherhood. Magneto. She always comes out on top. That version of Wanda might be a little too powerful for the movies unless they were going to make her a lead villian.

I would have liked to have seen Gambit (naturally), Emma Frost, Nightcrawler et al. But I think we did good with what we have (Beast is a favorite of mine so I'm glad he finally made it).

I also wanted to see the Hellfire Club (or at least Jason Wyngarde, Sebastian Shaw & Emma Frost) but it's likely that will never come to fruition. Oh well.

04-15-2006, 05:17 PM
Cyclops? :(
I think so too. I have feeling his part is going to be even less than X2 unless the movie is three hours and a half long. I think not addressing nightcrawlers absent is just laziness on the writers part. It can't take up that much time so it wouldn't hurt the pace of the movie.

Gambit could have been tied in especially since Kitty Pride woos away Iceman from Rogue. You see, Gambit should be there to help piece Rogue back together. It's obvious that the kids in the film like the ones i mentioned are conflicted on which side to choose so there should be some characters there for direction. Unfortunately, it'll be logan and storm instead of Gambit.
Truthfully i could care less about the stupid love side stories but Gambit is truly Rogue's guy. I miss Remi.

04-15-2006, 05:28 PM
Maybe in X4 they can get a straight guy to play Nightcrawler. Just Kidding. I would also like to see Havok and Rogue become the Rogue we like not the dumb unconfident girl in the movies. The whole Ms. Marvel thing should have happened by now.

well since you cant have both maximoff kids id save them for the mags spin off

i voted to bring back toad, he doesnt require any background, and id like to see him again

none on the poll list, but maybe Bishop, Forge, Polaris, Vindicator, or Fabian Cortez. I tend to like the older characters, but these would seem to translate to the movie universe well, and would provide some diversity in age, race, and power.

Nell2ThaIzzay
04-16-2006, 12:55 AM
I just really would have liked to have seen the team growing over the course of the movies...

See the team pick up followers for the cause as they fight the good fight. Even if it could be speculated that he "never had the uniform" or what have you, I think it was made pretty clear at the end of X2 that Nightcrawler had become a part of the team. Being religious, he could have been the one to hold the memorial service for Jean (as, despite the fact that Storm would give the eulogy, there is usually a reverend or something there to "M.C." the whole thing, so to speak)

His acceptance of his mutation, despite it obviously making him an outcast, could have been a very important contrast to the likes of Rogue, who wants to take the cure. I think it's more impactful that way, than from say Storm or Wolverine, who could pass as normal humans in society, because they don't have any obvious mutations.

And it would have been an interesting arc, to see his pacifist beliefs challenged, and he has to decide between taking a stand and fighting for what he believes in, or sitting back and hoping that peace could work itself out.

I mean, sure, it sounds like a lot, but honestly, I think it could have been worked in there, and worked well within everything else we have in the film thus far. The absense of Gambit and Nightcrawler are 2 characters who I'm always going to see this movie and think "they should have been in", and despite the fact that this movie is going to be awesome, amazing, the best yet, it's always going to fall a bit short of what it could have been (in my opinion) because it didn't include a character it should have (Nightcrawler), and the character who would have made my X-Men experience complete (Gambit).
