ARC LIGHT: The Official Character Discussion Thread

^^^dude there gloves.......

 

We already have a huge thread dedicated to this actress. The author of the thread can make arrangements with a moderator to have it retitled to reflect whatever "official" changes have been made...we don't have to make a new one.

 

Amen

 

Amen

 

Real Name: Phillipa Sontag
Affiliation: Marauders
Status: Perpetually clonable
Alternate-X Versions: None
Codename Etymology: Pronounced ärk līt [from Latin arcus, "arch" + Old English līht]; The light of a lamp in which the electric current passes through gas.
Powers:*add* (Arclight also has superhuman strength) Arclight sends shockwaves through anything she hits. She usually uses her power to throw foes off balance or to smash things. At times she has been seen involved in a relationship with Scalphunter, but due to the impermanent nature of their lives, it's likely that nothing between them is serious.

 

Okay, I see your point. And I know that it has been confirmed that Stacy is not in.

But where is the announcement that Arclight has taken her place?

 

Wait a second, it's confirmed or not?

And I think we should edit the old post instead of making a new one...

 

So...basically we have two "official" threads of speculation devoted to one actress?

Okay.

 

Sure,..that's a reasonable complaint, but I'm thinking that she wouldn't necessarily require all of that armor because her powers automatically protect her harm, IMO...Also, her look in X3 is no farther a comic book departure than Deathstrike's, Toad's, Sabretooth's or many of the other characters in the movie so far.
As I've pointed out in many threads before, we can't always single every character out as if each one deserves priority treatment in terms of comic book closeness...Like for a GENERAL example, a popular character like Angel needs to be blonde, Caucasian, and have big, white, fluffy wings as part of his basic visual appearance. Everything else can is dictated by the actor and the story (eye color/costume: Why should Angel wear spandex?)..Whereas a secondary minor character like Deathstrike can be changed around in any way the story and tone sees fit but should still keep the essence of that character around in that particular incarnation...Characters like Arclight and Callisto fit into this group as well..

Heh...and it can't be a coincidence that this thread emerged not too long after I posted my little theory on the Arclight thing in the other thread:

lol exactly.

and i hope she isn't playing arclight, as the character sounds dull. stacy x sounded much more interesting.

 

When did they CONFIRM they she is indeed Arclight?

 

Just cuz some guy saved a pic as "arclight" does not mean its official. She prolly is Arclight, but I'll believe when it has been confirmed

 

Most websites, for many months, had her pegged as Stacy-X too and many of them still do...It's just that the speculation has reached a level to the point where it would be safe to assume that that's who she's playing...

The fact IS that even though the evidence is undeniably strong either way, there is nothing that officially confirms or denies that Mota is playing Arclight..

Yea it was never confirmed who she was playing, but arclight sounds like a good pick, they prolly wont even call her by arclight they'll prolly call her by her real name phillipa, or by her last name sontag or somthing, (if she is archlight that is)

and as the glossery says she has super strength, endurance, reflexes, and resistance to injury, thats prolly why she'll survive well into the movie unlike some other brotherhood mutans people are caliming that they'll die.

 

i'm just glad stacyx is out!
