Will Jean just start calling herself that or will the x-men name her that?

I do think it'll be Magneto who first calls Jean Phoenix.

Most of the rumors place Magneto as the one who gives her the name

It's probably part of the whole "Fury the world has never witnessed" speech that Magneto gives Jean.

I really don't think so! (and hope!)
Magneto will not speak to her by her civil/ human name Jean.
Even John was ask what his "real name" is and the whole "risen like a phoenix"-talk is perfect for the oxfordenglish speaking movie Magneto!
Everyone in this movie has a codename and Phoenix is just perfect for a reborn Jean.

But if they don't call her Phoenix, I think we will also don't see the Phoenix-Effect. And that would be really really terrible...
It could be so phenomenal on screen!

angel-"who is that"

Angel- "whats a phoenix"

Charles- "a very powerful mutant once known as jean grey, she was nice before, now shes bad, a bad bad girl, whose gonna get a spankin when she gets home"

both nest and bird burn fiercely and are reduced to ashes, from which a new, young phoenix arises. The new phoenix embalms the ashes of the old phoenix in an egg made of myrrh and deposits it in Heliopolis ("the city of the sun" in Greek), located in Egypt


you think she might "burn" herself in the....water(haha) and a new being is born bla bla bla?

flavio_lebeau
04-14-2006, 09:08 PM
i think they will compare her to a Phoenix once in the movie, and that's all...
once again, we will probably have Shakesperian delivered lines out of things like "the pie is in the kitchen". So Professor or Mags will have that worried/terrified/serious face while saying "she was booooorn from the ashes...just like...a Phoenix..."

" You have have emerged from death. From your ashes, like the mighty pheonix. Your passion for life shall continue to burn. And unfortunatly for those who have tried to cage you and keep you from your true potential, they will be fed to the flame" - Magneto to a newly arisen pheonix?

Sorry sounds kinda corny, but meh an explination non the less.
I think she'll be named somewhere along those lines.

I think it will be Magneto who call sher that, but I don't think he'll tell her she rose like one. That's just not what he would say to her...

I can see him saying "Now, my dear Phoenix, let us finish this once and for all"

I think he will call her that not so much as a name but a description like "my dear telepath" LOL.

I think Xavier will probably allude to rising from the ashes...

It could be so phenomenal on screen! They have to show the Phenoix Effect onscreen. They showed it in X2. They have to show it again this time to make the connection with the final scene of X2 for the unwashed masses (no, not us, the other unwashed masses). She has to emerge from the water somehow. We know from one of the TV spots that she doesn't simply walk on shore or get found lying on the shore by Cyclops. The TV spot shows the effect of her on the water with Cyclops standing on shore looking out. My guess is that she shoots straight up out of the water in full Phoenix Flame, then floats over to Cyclops onshore. Lord, I hope so...

I'm sure they will. Because Beast was on the original team, I think Storm or Xavier will refer to him as such without having to explain his name. Angel as well, I'm sure he won't have a "What should I call myself" scene, I think it'll be a pretty obvious connection as to why people call him that

Don't worry, we will see the Phoenix effect. Simon Kinberg confirmed it over at the Xverse boards :)

I think it'll be Magneto that christians her that. And what better way to present her to the masses as some sort of Christ figure, a mutant that died and rose again, that to name her after the mythical bird that does just that.

i surely would love if they treated her like Jesus nº2, you know, everybody praising her and all, and then she just fu*k them all up :p
i would enjoy if they treated her ressurection not as something common and usual, but as a major fact in the whole world, kinda impossible i know...

I agree. Even if she didn't really "die" I think Magneto would capitalize on the perception that she did. So that's my pet theory on how Magneto uses Jean (other than the whole crazy powerful ****** batting for my team thing).

Actually most of the promo material refers to her as Jean Grey, thats who she's billed as on the cast too. I'm hoping for some reference to the Phoenix, but it wont be too overt, I'm pretty sure of that.
