The Uncanny X-Men
Plot: Basically, the sequel to my original X-Flick. It's been a year since the events of the first one, and due to the antics of magneto and the brotherhood, anti-mutant sentiments are at a fever pitch. Leading the charge is William Stryker, a religious Zealot who's been spreading anti mutant propaganda. He's also been plotting to destroy mutantkind, first using mutant mercenaries called the marauders to wipe out the morlocks underneath the sewers in NYC, and then using Charles Xavier and cerebro to kill every mutant on earth. The movie is a commentary on todays society, showing how far people will go when they hate a group of people enough.
Returning Characters
Cyclops: Scott has become a more confident leader since the first flick, mainly due to his relationship with Jean. He's become cool in the face of danger, scaring his fellow X-Men sometimes.
Wolverine: Logan becomes less homicidal, and a little bit more like a team player. He's giving Scott less of a hard time, but has harsh feelings towards him because he's dating Jean. We see him starting to experience painful flashbacks of his weapon X origins.
Marvel Girl: Jean's becomes more experienced, her powers growing more and more quickly. In the film, there's even flashes of Phoenix. In the end, she makes a difficult sacrifice that sets up the events of the third flick.
Storm: Ororo dosent really go through any major changes in my story. She's basically the same as she is in the first one. We focus on the sisterhood between her and Jean, however.
Beast: Hank's not in the combat stuff in this film. He's one of the representatives of the Xavier institute. I have an idea for a scene where Hank and Stryker debate on TV.
Rogue: She gets more confident and more like her comics version in this one. She's also showing signs of Secondary mutation. She feels like she's getting stronger. She can take more damage, and there are tiny hints of flight.
Iceman: Bobby's trying to make light of the current events, and he gets yelled at by his fellow X-Men. He's forced to grow up a little bit.
ShadowCat: She's visibly distraught by the current events, and it may be too much for her to handle. She dosent understand why humans hate them so much. She takes comfort in Colossus.
Colossus: I admit....i may not develop him so much character wise, but you can bet your ass he sees some action. Basically, I have an idea that asks "What if, in X2, Colossus stayed in the mansion with Wolverine?"
New Characters
Nightcrawler: He dosent play much of a role, only to show an idea of how much people hate mutants. When we meet him, he's on the run from a mob in Germany, when he's saved by Storm and Jean.
Villains
William Stryker: Pretty much the comics version. He's smart, and knows how to play on the fears of humans. He implies heavily that he killed his wife and son because he was a mutant child. He uses his vast fortune to secretly fund the marauders, which he sees as a necessity.
Marauders: The mutant mercenaries hired by Stryker. They dont even know Stryker hired them. All they know is that they have to eradicate the morlocks living underground. The group includes Arclight, Scrambler, Vertigo, Scalphunter, Riptide, Prism, Malice, Harpoon, and Blockbuster.
Deadpool: The leader of the Mauraders. The same crazy sumbtich we know and love. He battles Wolverine at the end.
