![]() ![]() ![]() What's sad is that in the last 20 years Jean has been dead more often than she's been alive. Xavier is the bastard stepchild of the X-Men. Most characters don't get along well with Cyclops. And that's not even just the X-Men. It's the entire Marvel U. |

Jean keeps dying but they can't seem to keep her dead. And the books were trying to make it clear for years that the X-Men don't need Xavier anymore. Yet everytime they tried to get rid of the character he still comes back. You can't keep those three characters away. I think it's still valid.

That's the exact era of comic books that I read, own and grew up on.

Still, it's pretty clear her coming back is a matter of not if but when.

"The only people who stay dead in comics are Bucky, Jason Todd, and Uncle Ben."
...wait. That can't be right... "The only people who stay dead in comics are Uncle Ben and Jean Grey..?"

Darwin? Azreal? Morrison's Angel Salvadore? Havok? It's almost like they have a dart board with names and they just pick them at random. Don't they realize what makes these characters interesting is how they were worked into the story IN THE FIRST PLACE? What's Havok gonna be? Now, before you open-minded folk come along and say "well, he's got interesting powers, lets see how they use him...". Keep in mind every mutant has interesting powers. If you're going to redub Alex Summers as anything but Cyclops' younger brother, locked forever in his shadow, ever trying to be the leader that he is, then what you end up with is "interesting powers". Which is no reason to use a character ever. Make up your own if the powers are so damn interesting. He can have his own backstory, his own place in the story, and guess what you can have the same powers because there are tons of mutants with the same powers. Furthermore, why the f*** does Xavier have hair in this. Did they even read the comics (*again*). He never had hair except when he was very, very young, and lost it in his early teens with the full manifestation of his powers. I mean it's not like this would cost them anything? Just have McAvoy shave his head. |

I'm glad you completely disregarded my earlier post refuting your ridiculous claims.

We may get moaned at for going on about Havock being younger than Cyclops. But all it's creating is difficulties for any writer in the future who actually does it right... because those who have seen the first movie will be scratching their heads going 'but I thought he was older..' ![]() Quote:

For now, we can only trust that this "laundry list" within the story that they're utilizing still does more of the same that the first X-Men movies did.

I like the approach to this new film, so what if it doesn't have Cyclops. Cyclops is my favorite but X-men have many different characters and the casting is excellent. Also Brian Singer is producing it, I will be using what faith I have left in him to see if this movie turns out good.

Disappointed that we still won't get any focus on Cyclops. But hey, at least we don't have a Wolverine hogging the spotlight now either.

The film-verse might somehow take this modification and potray it in a way that might make sense and fit in with everything else. I realize it's severely disappointing (I was never a huge Cyke fan, but I get it) so was Shatner not being in the STAR TREK reboot... But at the end of the day, if the character's presence doesn't suit the overall direction and storyline of the film... then his absense might make sense. None of us can say why and how and wtf... without knowing how the movie's going to be. |
