As for Storm, well yes she has been just a special effects provider for most of the films. I don't know why she is so hard to grasp. We need to see a story where Xavier goes to Egypt or Kenya to battle the Shadow King, who has taken possession of Storm (like he did in Wolverine and the X-Men cartoon). Then we get an origin for Storm, characterisation for Storm, some full-on displays of her power as she goes out of control under Shadow King's influence, and chance for Xavier to lose his hair!
