Superheroes Hate James Marsden

James Marsden has the unique distinction of being in four of the
biggest superhero movies of the last 10 years: "X-Men," "X2," X-Men:
The Last Stand" and "Superman Returns."
Unfortunately, Marsden also has the unique distinction of being the
most put upon actor in superhero history. He's made a career out of
playing the morally-upright good guy whose desire for a happy home
is thwarted by a cooler and/or more potent superhero rival.

Consider the evidence:

In the "X-Men" films all Cyclops (Marsden) ever wants is to settle
down with Jean Grey and raise a couple telekinetic kids who can blow
the **** out of stuff with their eyes. But noooooo ... Wolverine
saunters in and chops Cyclops' idyllic life to shreds with his
adamantium claws and those ridiculous cheek muffs. Worst still, Jean
sacrifices herself in "X2" and then comes back to life as the badass
mutant Phoenix. "Hey honey, I'm home ... and I'm evil!"

Verdict: Cyclops = X-Tool.

In "Superman Returns" Marsden is Richard White, a true-blue fiancee
who has admirably stepped in to take care of glory-hound Pulitzer
winner Lois Lane and her inhaler-snorting son. All Richard wants is
to live in his far-too-nice-for-a-reporter seaside home with his
neurotic fiancee and her moppy-haired kid. BUT NOOOOOOOO ...
Superman returns after a five-year vacation and before you know it,
Lois is floating over Metropolis with the Man of Steel while Richard
fetches take-out for Lois and her friggin kid. Oh sure,
Richard "technically" gets Lois, but it's a temporary gig. When
the "Superman" sequel rolls around, you just know Richard is
targeted for a freak sea-plane accident, or maybe he'll fall into
the clutches of Lex Luthor and spend the entire film being tortured
in a subterranean lair.

Verdict: Richard = Superman's Underoos.

Marsden has paid the price, run through the fire, jumped through all
the hoops and tackled all those other do-gooder cliches. He
deserves -- nay, requires -- an R-rated superhero role that lets him
spout snarky lines, kick massive ass, and steal some noob's gorgeous
girlfriend. James Marsden, your time is now! -- Mac Slocum

t4p, bexta! I agree with the editorial... he needs a good, gritty role.

I'm guessing that his cartoon movie and perhaps Enchanted he took for his childrens' sake... if you look through his list of movies, none of them are exactly kid-friendly. They've probably barely seen their dad in action!
 
me agree too, but i guess... triple... let me speak first next, it's like you're reading my thoughts
 
Well, look who made a cameo in our newest cartoon...

You can see the preview for it and more news at Bullcrank.com After the shaft he got in the movies, we had to help the guy out. haha, originally Wolverine was this part, and I had the animator cut him out and replace him with Cyclops ... sweet justice
 
larryfilmmaker, just so you know, the URL in your sig needs an http:// infront of it. :)

Haha, it's so true. They're facing their greatest, most diabolical threat ever: bad, evil writers. Only the fans can save them now!
 
*sigh* :( :(

What could've/should've been. I can never stop thinking about this classic pose whenever I think of X3. It's one of the things that has left me bitter about The Last Stand as a whole.

Bad writing, no character development, and politics ruined what could've been the most emotional, darkest, and powerful movie out of the trilogy.

That would have been more appropriate, yes. But I dunno man, I'm starting to lean for an ending that involves that photo manip of Scott sitting over an unconcious Jean in the infirmary. Dead characters can tell no more tales, and let's face it the way the whole Phoenix concept was set up in X3 there had been alot more alternatives available to avoid death in the films than in the comics, only a shame they didn't act on it.

BTW, What's that one X-Men cover I saw with a Phoenix holding the body of a dead Cyclops in the same pose as above but with Magneto hovering over them in the background? Fanart? Or some kind of "what-if" alternative story?

Bad writing, no character development, and politics ruined what could've been the most emotional, darkest, and powerful movie out of the trilogy.

Just remember: it was all a dream. A bad dream for us, and for Scott. He'll wake up from that nightmare.

I really like this article...:)
 
Sometimes I think those filmmakers all try to rule against James, I mean a guy who actually can act and sing as well, not to mention his looks, I don't see why they are so reluctant to give him a decent role except those independent films. (Though I love these indie films, I want to see him shine on the big screen too.)
 
He was supposed to take the lead role in a movie called "Preacher", which was also based on a comic but it never got picked up.
 
Yeah, that would have been really interesting to see bc Preacher is a really dark character.
 
Another variation of the same pose from endsong.
